| Hi, Been "lurking" (really bad choice for an internet term) on this board for a while now. But it's finally helped me stop feeling guilty about "animal desires. I now accept that I am a "zoo." To accept it is such a relief; and to know there are many others like me. Sorry if this post is a bit lame but; first ones always are. Look forward to more discussions with you all. col3d5. |

| It isn't easy, none of it ever is. Glad to see you have accepted your feelings and can now move on and explore your sexuality. Just take it slow and easy, read the FAQs pages and stop by for some chat when you feel ready. Believe it or not, it takes courage to accept the things you cannot change. Hope things go well for you from now on. |

Nothing lame about it...accepting it is a very brave thing to do. Took me and (probably many others) years to accept it. |

 Being able to accept yourself for what you are is the first step towards being able to love yourself.It's a little easier to look yourself in the eye in the mirror and truly mean that you love yourself. After all, if you can't do that, how can you love others...animals included. Peace and love to you! |

| Congrats on accepting yourself. I found it to be quite difficult, but looking back, one can see how important it is. It's truly a shame that we must live a dual-life, but people just would not understand. C'est la vie. Once again, Congrats, and as others have said, welcome to the club |

| Gratz on accepting this part of you. That was something that took me a few years to do. I myself recently went one step further and told my partner when we were really high one night that I often watch beastiality videos and have had sex with my dog when i was younger. She is the first person to ever know, and she didn't run for the hills lol Its a good feeling |

Well i think to tell you the truth there a lot more people out there that might find it weired but not so crazy. I being  and into zoo also have mentioned to 2 female co-workers that are pretty cool too talking about anything - booth pretty crazy and they booth have mentioned separately to me in private that they have had fantasies in the past about it.  one of them actually telling me they have done it in the past but thought that it was to crazy. That is until i open her eyes to this site.  She told me that when i talked to her about details in zoo life she got turned on. She did not know this kinda life style was out there even do she has done so in the past. Guess she loves it now - cause she is reading up on the site and loving it |

It takes most people time to come terms with it ..... I know it did for me too. It'll get easier from herein on in that you won't feel alone and you'll know where to come for help and support  |

| Hello, welcome, and congrats! I'm also in the transition between guilt and acceptance...isn't nice to just let it out? Anyway, best of luck! |

| We are our own worst enemies. Initially I had some moral questions about my decision to become involved with my female dog years ago; Where people live (i.e., the type of people who surround them) does have an effect on such things...ask anyone whose ever lived in the "Bible Belt" about tolerance and acceptance; or rather, how difficult that is to find.  Finally I simply did with the issue as I do with many other ones...I disregard what others think. But beyond that was a certain feeling of loneliness, of wondering "are there others like me? What if I'm the only one??" That, I think, was really the hardest part. Remember, this was pre-BF (Hell for that matter it was pre-internet, lol) so I never imagined such a community could exist. I'm so glad it does.  And yes, it does feel like a weight is lifted off you. Acceptance of your decision, and realizing that it is ok, that you're not wrong to feel or act in such a manner, is a major victory for yourself. Big grats on the win. |

| I'm really curious what you guys mean when you say you are 'zoo' and stuff. Does that mean you prefer animals over humans, or just that you also like animals? Would someone be zoo if they prefer humans but think lady lions are kinda hot? I don't really follow since -philia usually means you got a pref for something. |
| Posted by: missywolf Aug 8 2008, 10:02 PM | ||
some zoos prefer animals over humans, but not always. What makes a person a zoophile is that they actually feel romantic love towards animals, rather than just having sex (bestiality) Hope that answered your question. |
