So true. I will admit that last year I slowed down a bit, but this year I seem to be steady.ssshhhh...these youngsters are convinced that sex ends at 42.5, and death occurs soon after?

Thats has been my experience too..Like most have said, it just intensifies with age.
I feel like it has only gotten stronger as I have gotten olderOr is your identity.
That's been my experienceIn my case, the unrequited urge just grows stronger. I'm in my sixties...
Beautifully said and yes this is exactly as it is with me. You put how I feel into words.can I say that the attraction is much stronger for me? I would say yes.
I'll try to tell you how it's been for me so far but it's delicate and difficult to answer because we are all different and what may have pushed a guy to do it is not necessarily the same reason that pushed the girl, vice versa. I let you think about it.
It might be long, don't blame me please!
Personally I started to be attracted at a very young age, especialy with dogs. They even tried several times to stop me and lecture me but nothing worked. As I matured, I almost stopped for several years if you forget some little moments of fun. I don't know why, maybe because I rarely encountered pets or juste cause it wasn't long enough to have much physical contact with them?
Then I left my parents, I started to live my life so I thought it was only a temporary attraction, a kind of curiosity. I still thought about it from time to time, but I put it down to guilt.
A few years later, I was overtaken by my greatest weakness, a very cute dog who only had it for me. And there it became a storm.
I started asking myself a lot of questions. I had a moment of fear, thinking it was just unhealthy evil. But I quickly realized that I was developing a lot of attachment to this doggie, that it was getting really closer from the love I could feel for a crush.
I felt a lot of conflicting emotions, a desire to stop driven by worry and fear, but also Like A burning desire, the need to carry on without ever looking back.
Now I try my best to assume and I think it's burried in my soul forever. I know it can slow down in a period for several reasons including mood, as it can speed up and come very quickly for the same reasons. A bit like the waves that are never alike. The big difference is that I'm much more thoughtful now. I am much more careful and I manage to keep control. I have a better awareness of animal welfare, of the risks for them, for me. But I'm still very sad, I find it so unfair to have to hide it. I don't hurt anyone, or any pet. I don't want to do it. I like to live positive and I think that the harm I do will end up falling on me.
It is all about people wanting to control other people.I found out about my feelings when I was 14 and it's been another 14 years so... yeah it's still here despite my best effort to suppress it.
I'm on a journey of being more authentic to myself and weirdly enough it's brought me back into contact with these feelings. I will admit my bias right now is towards wanting to make these feelings go away or control them because it's just... so taboo, but I recognize that much of the negative feelings are because of culture, society and religion. If I remove those influences I'm finding it hard to think of zoophilia and bestiality as an inherent "crime against nature" if done so in a loving, gentle, careful manner instead of as a kink, fetish or treating the animal as a living sex toy.
Curious to learn more about all this stuff though
Yeah I was reading a great CMV post on reddit just last night and they raised a few interesting points. One perspective that had never occurred to me before that they raised was that allowing zoophilia and bestiality on a societal level could potentially result in more widespread abuse of animals given that many animals are already being neglected or mistreated in non-sexual ways as it is. Not everyone necessarily loves and respects animals and values their wellbeing over sexual interest or fetishization of them. I don't have any authority on this matter because I'm so new to thinking about zoophilia, but based on what I've read it does seem to take a fair bit of attunement, sensitivity, awareness and knowledge to assess whether or not an animal is truly consenting or not being harmed or trained/goaded into sexual activity.It is all about people wanting to control other people.

So this person argued that perhaps the cultural taboo and revulsion might actually be helpful to an extent in being somewhat protective of animals and discouraging people from engaging with them.
Regardless of whether this person is right or not, I'm taking away that that I'm finding it harder and harder to pinpoint a specific reason why zoophilia can't be conducted in an ethical, non-harmful way for animals given the proper knowledge, awareness and guidelines. I'm also finding it hard to pinpoint specific reasons why engaging in zoophilia is "inherently wrong" as many people say. Conversations don't seem to get past the emotional, gut reaction level people have to zoophilia so I'm grateful spaces like Zooville exist to explore these ideas.
I had trouble finding it for a second because I look at everything incognito ahahah.Where on Reddit?

I apologize if posting links like this is not okay, I looked over the rules a couple times and didn't see anything against it but sorry if I missed something!
Anyway this poster presented an interesting taken on the matter. I appreciate all these different POVs for and against zoophilia. Trying to be as balanced as I can!
Not that I've noticed, I've been 'addicted' for 10 years or so...Or is your identity.
Cultural taboo and revulsion of zoophilia have nothing to do with protection of animals. I know a coworker that would kick his dog in front of people. Everyone stayed silent and his friends would laugh, except for me who told him he was abusing his animal and I didn’t find it amusing. These people are the same people that would have been revulsed at black people daying white people. They are taught to revulse anything that is outside their comfort zone or familiarity end of story. It’s a sort of superiority complex that somewhat lies in religion. I’m right, you’re wrong- but not only are you wrong but you are not human therefore treating your actions and you less than human is okay.Yeah I was reading a great CMV post on reddit just last night and they raised a few interesting points.

Longest period without zoo fun I had was about 3 months when i first moved to London as a student. Dog sitting/walking enabled me to restart my interest.Not that I've noticed, I've been 'addicted' for 10 years or so...
