Is it a good idea to tell people about my proclivity towards animals ?

That can be hit and miss, and probably more miss than hit.

I've got one friend that has a good idea of me, but doesn't ask questions either.

Not sure what you mean here.. They asked an honest question, and to many, no thought would need to be given as an answer, but there's plenty of shit that we don't individually know and we need to encourage questions and give honest and complete answers.

Give them props for at least asking.

We need to have some respect for each other.
 
Ten minutes of reading before asking his question might have settled his mind...Spoon-sized is STILL part of a healthy breakfast but not for the asking of a question that has probably been answered 100 thousand times....THIS year.
Especially this one....because anyone with a brain will know the answer before he/she can formulate the question. It ain't mama's box of chocolates.
.
 
There are several other similar threads, one of which I even made a few posts in but didn't find it quickly. Might go back and look later, maybe the OP will find it.

Regardless of how the responses leaned, I think I know which way the results leaned.

I've told literally two people in my life I am a zoo. Both my only romantic partners.

The first was okay with just the knowledge atleast, though she did express concerns when breaking up that she didn't want me fucking any dogs.
The second & current is also okay with the knowledge and seems encouraging and okay with me looking up either animal-themed porn or using animal-themed sex-toys. But that's probably because she also has some pretty severe kinks herself so she probably knows what it's like.

I don't know what her views exactly are on the idea of if I were to actually do it, though. She has said she has a hard time finding a problem with it since it's so common that people eat meat and drink milk too, but I don't think she would find it ethical.

Look around on this site for the download of the LGBT... Z? paper.. I think she may find it interesting and also helpful
 
As tempting as it is to be that young 18 yo outwardly zoo person may be... you must really think about the longevity of any and all online interactions as well as people you meet.

In the furry fandom people are now getting harassed heavily for any zoo positive statements even.

You must also think about how it will affect your future animal partners as well. if someone digs out this past post and now you're private about it but some troll has proof of you being zoosexual and uses it to harm you or your animal that is a very real thing.

I thought I said basically the same thing (just using fewer words and doing less "dancing around") back at about post 3 or 4 in this thread?

Good for you, the more of us share the similar or same message the more legitimacy added to the message.
 
I have. Most of the time it really should start out as a more indirect conversation then particularly going straightforward and opening up.
Doing so would put you in a corner and most importantly at risk.
Secondly, while some has been nice and fun and overall really close to me.
Others ended in a pretty harsh way. People already isn't very keen on animal relationships.
You might find more side-glances, indirect hate, and overall harsh opinion then positive experiences.

So if you ever wish to tell someone, please please don't be direct unless it goes well. And be careful with how often you bring it up or how personal you bring the conversation into yourself. The more personal you make it the more you might get hurt if something goes wrong. Even if you aren't specifically talking about yourself.
I fought for decades to be myself. But that was another part of my identity. I'm more careful with announcing zoo then even announcing that.
And bare in mind even the good experiences brought people to fear worrying if I was going to be doxed or harassed.
Both can be dangerous to open up about. Yet I knew if something went wrong that could affect our companions and our safety spaces worser.
And i'm not about to risk that.
Make sure you are ready and test things out before allowing the gates to open. Best of luck to anyone thinking about doing so.
I hope all goes well for you!

It's gone fine for some, sometimes. In general, though, it's a bad idea. Most people aren't going to be sympathetic, and many will even put an end to their relationship with you, or worse. Unless you know you're talking to someone who really doesn't give a shit about much of anything, it's a very bad idea, and I still wouldn't, even then.
 
Absolutely not, only with your play partner or anyone who share being zoo. you don't know how things could change in the future, and a friend or family could be your worst enemy, thats life

I feel we do have respect for each other here as we are all here for the same reasons. One cant encourage another to talk about this subject with any other non ZOO individual or group as the ramifications could be life changing for the individual coming out of the closet. Regardless of who they know and who they want to open up too, its a bad idea to engage in conversation about this subject unless the other person is open minded and receptive to people into ZOO. We all appreciate that the individual asked an honest question but please respect the answers given as well as Im sure the answers come from a good place. So far I havent seen anyone being demeaning to the question asked. If anything the general consensus seems to be that its a bad idea unless you want to be an outcast for life. General society isnt open minded. They do judge and yes they will taunt and humiliate you for life. Question for you (K_9River_rat) is. Do you want to see this or any other individual psychologically scared for life by telling them to blurt out that they are a ZOO. If this is the case then Id have to question your integrity. I for one wouldnt want to see anyone suffer from the fallout of raising this subject with family, friends or general society. People are here on this site so they can talk and comfort each other without any bias or judgement. We can feel at home with who we are and what we are into. If this is wrong then shoot me. I have a clear conscience in saying all this as I am comfortable with who I am and Im typing this without any malus.

Brave. As the saying goes "hell hath no fury like a partner scorned....". Unless they are directly partaking it has its risks when/if the relationship goes sideways.

But I do understand the need to share!

I fully agree with you ;)

Did you really read through my reply and what I was replying to?

My first sentence was not to the original poster, but someone that replied to their question in such a manner that led me to believe they were laughing at the original poster for even asking the question, but I allowed that I may not have understood their reasoning behind the reply since it was just a laughing emogi...

Read through the entire thread again... I was defending the person asking the question and questioning the person that appeared to be laughing at them..
