My apologies if the phrasing of the question is a little weird.
I also want to say that I understand that a large part of being in this community is understanding that this is not an accepted ideology and there are many areas/places that are very dangerous for us to be in.
I’m not trying to say “how do you attract other Zoos” but instead, have you ever met another Zoo “organically”? I’m curious because I’ve never met anyone who seemed to even shows sign of remote interest. Like I said, I understand that could be because we have to do that for our own safety, but I’m curious if anyone has ever had an experience where they discovered this shared experience/interest with someone they already knew
I've discussed it before, but I've met 2 confirmed and a third I have all but witnessed in the act.
The first was a neighbor when I was a young man on the farm who used to make jokes directed at me about fucking the animals. I'd write it off as redneck humor except there was often good advice tucked in with the jokes, the kind of thing one tends to learn from experience and the ever persistent rumors about him. He was a cras man, but you always knew what he was thinking and he was a likeable fellow even if his speech was a stream of profanity at high volume. At one point he turned to me out of the blue and said, "Make sure you fuck the young heiffers, those old cows will just shit on your dick." Another time we were at a livestock auction, "[Farmer I lived with], you need to get them sheep; this boy needs a girlfriend. You want them ewes don't ya, Emmanuel?"
In my 20's I was more open about my proclivities and I found one of my friends had some interest. A few years later I'd gotten a saint bitch who was very keen on sex and was very forward; the three of us lived together for a handful of years until he moved away, during that time the two of them enjoyed one another's company often.
The third was a coworker, or former coworker by that time, who I had worked with and remained friendly with. Over the years we talked about a lot of stuff and one day it just sort of came up in conversation. I'd known him for a few years and trusted him, so I shared my opinion and experience and we talked about it off and on over the years. Eventually one day he plucked up the courage and asked if he could try so I told him if he could get her in the mood it was up to her. Long story short, with a little guidance he got her fired up and there were some fun times for a few years while I still lived in the area.
The first is long since dead, but the other two are still good friends who I wish I could see more often than once every few years.
