Hello. This section has been a little slow lately so I figured that I would shake things up. This is a question that I am sure all of us on this forum will have an answer to. Whether you are a zoophile or a beastialist I am sure that this has played a part in the development of the being that you now are.

How long was it before you were comfortable as a zoophile. When I ask this I am asking the amout of time from finding out that you were a zoophile to actually admitting it to yourself and feeling good, even proud about it.

For me my introduction to zoophilia was I guess built up over time. But one event put it all into perspective. In a split second I was able to peer deep within myself and see myself for the person that I was and had long desired to be. I discovered that I was a zoophile on a Tuesday night in May 2001. For me I was not to sure of the feelings that I had. I knew that a deep love and connection existed between me and my dog. But it wasn't until about 2 years ago. In June 2002 that I discovered the term zoophilia. As soon as I read the definition I knew that that is what I was. Ever since then I have understood and become comfortable with myself as a person. It took about a year to fully comprehend the person that I was to become.

Interesting question ---2---, i have to admit you never stop to amaze me with your kind of questions! :)

Well, to me its kinda hard to answer as i discovered what Zoophila means only four years ago - when i finaly got access to the internet.

I found out that i was different way back at '92 or something by a TV Reportage about perverted and strange sexuall likings. They reported about people who took 'animallove' a step to far. During that show i realized that what they showed and talked about woke something inside of me.
I somehow realized that i was differnet then everyone around me, i didnt felt the desire for humans and such. I allways felt atracted to dogs and animals but after that show i knew why - well i thought.

Two or three years later in '94 i met a longcoated GSD who finaly showed me that i was different. I fell in love with her the first moment i saw her and looked into her eyes. I cant explaine what i feld in that moment, its plain impossible to me.
I can only say for the first time in my life i felt right!?!
I didnt knew that there were so many other people out there with the same feelings and desires (only through that TV reportage).
During the months with her i accepted the love i felt for her - no matter how strange and different it was. I knew it was 'wrong' but it felt so right i didnt cared and accepted it the way it was.

When i finaly got access to the Internet back in 2000 i finaly realized i was a zoophil - though i didnt felt comfortable with it. (You know the usual societything, its worng, its strange, its freaky and so on...)
It took me another three years before i finaly accepted it and now i can say im comfortable with my love and desire for dogs!! (Allthough there are days when i just feel down about the whole thing...)

So i guess it took me more or less half of my live from the day i realized i was different to the day i accepted and feld good with being different - 12 Years!

Well HR I have many questions that I want to hear answers to. It is what I do to understand the world around me and also understand how others react to similar situations. I love hearing other peoples trials and tribulations in life. Helps me to understand a little bit of what is out there and how things may or may not work. That and I consider this section to be my home. I hate seeing it not getting any attention. So I will pull out a question every now and then to get things flowing. Glad that you like them.

Well Knowledge can only be gained through asking ;) Its allways a pleasure to read your posts and questions ---2---!!

As is my pleasure reading yours. Thanks.

Hi all
The question about being comfortable being zoophilic is difficult for me. My first experience was at the age of about 12 when i would sneak out late at night to masterbate a male dog that lived down the road. The dog got to know me and enjoyed the experience. At that time there weren't even calculators available let alone the internet. I felt at the time that there was something wrong with me, so natrually i kept my desires to myself. To this day I still keep my desires to myself.To me it seems that the internet has enabled people to come out of the "closet" as individual sexual beings, finding like minded people so one does not feel alone or worse "weird". I am still not really comfortable with my sexuality however these forums at least let me know that I am not alone.

I felt real guilty and bad about it for the first 2 years because its something your not suposed to do its suposed to be wrong everyone makes fun of it and its suposed to be against god and stupid stuff like that

When I was 16 I stoped feeling bad about it. I love him more than anything Hes my world and it felt real good to say that to myself. And tonight I'm telling my best friend about it. I hate having secrets from her its been real hard, eating me each time I see her becasue I'm keeping something from her. Shes real open minded and joked about it before about how my dog is with me so...if I finaly manage that and if it feels ok I'll let her know and I'll feel even better about who I am because I finaly 'said it' outloud...

Wow poundpuppy, I can relate so well to your story.

After my male k9 lover died when I was 15...we started when I was 11...from that day I never touched another dog and every time I had a sexual thought about a dog I blocked it, ignored it, denied it. Told myself i was sick and perverted and never told anyone about it. Then December 14 last year I stumbled upon this forum. I was shocked that there were soooo many people that were 'out of the closet' and that I could read 'how-to's' and learn for the first time about the knot.
I didnt even know there were words to describe being an animal lover! I have since come to realise that i have been a zoophile my whole life (loving the company of animals more than people) and have met a few zoo's in person whom I treasure absolutely.
Sometimes I will be talking about being a zoo to another and still have a 'pinch me' moment that I am actually saying and writing these things out loud. But as I have said before, my skin feels like it fits me now, and two decades of shame and guilt are slowly being washed away by talking about it to and with the great people of this forum.

I don't feel fully comfortable with it.And as long as I live with my parents and brother I can NOT.Always behave as "normal",treating my cutie if she was "just a dog" and nothing more,hiding my feelings for her and other things..Hell,it makes me SICK!And it's going worse with each day I spend here,each year I see no chance to move my a*s away from here :ph34r:
I don't feel like if I were a "sinner",it's only that I HATE to pretend I'm "normal" -- but I can't "come out" to my family,they would never understand me.... <_< :(

I know what you mean BitchFool. I stated in another thread that this secret is killing me. While I am comfortable with my zoophilia and very proud of it I have to much to lose to tell my family. It is killing me to be unable to treat my babies the way that they should be treated. They way that they deserve.

You both arnt alone with that... In the last few months its pushing me to my limit to stay 'silent'!!

I had a fight with my brother today because he shouted at my mate (sadly his dog) and it almost ended up realy bad... Luckily im the calm one of us both, if not i guess i would have lost a few teeth...
Everytime i cuddly with 'my' dog and my Bro or someone else of my family walks by i can feel them looking at me - i know its weird but thats how i feel it...
When he shouts at my dog or handles him wrong (which he does way to often) i just want to kick him and tell him he should take his damn fingers of him...

I long somuch for the day i can move out to my own littel home, sadly i wont be able to take my little star with me :(

God im so sick of it... :ph34r:

I can relate in many respects. I realized what I was when as a teen I was reading a book of human sexuality that my folks had and ran across Zoophilia. Wrestled with it, repressed it, practiced it, stopped, lapsed and finally by age 30 identified myself as a zoo and embraced it. I hate having to keep it a secret from girlfriends ( I try, but only one really knew and she considered it cheating for me to have sex with a male dog and be involved with her. All the others have been less understanding). As ---2----, I'm comfortable and proud, but to be exposed or to out myself to anyone carries huge risks - loss of freedom, loss of job, loss of animal companions & lovers, loss of place in the community.
Sometimes it does get me down that I have this "love that dare not bark it's name", but that is more about how others don't understand and will not drop their prejudices than it is about who and what I am.

It's just like the song. "Hey you got to hide your love away"

for me I didn't come to terms with being a zoo untill I joined this forum. I was allways turned on by animals and animals sex. But it was abour two years after I really saw people having animal sex online that I realized.. hey that's me

Kinda hard to answer this question, since i never really questioned my attraction's and just went with it since i was 13 (younger actually) ive never had to decide whether or not i was comfortable, nor have i ever had the right/wrong internal debate.
I am simply what i am and shall remain that way till the day i expire ;)

Guns :)
