(serious topic) Do you ever feel guilt over your sexuality?

I’m 50/50 form time to time. It’s hard being split loving a dog and showing the same love to a human partner. I don’t have a human partner now so I have my boy. It would be interesting to have a love triangle between three. However the likely hood of finding that person is few and far between.

Think about this .... how many of those same people have or do things in their life that you could never be accepting of. Accept yourself, for who and what you are. They have no real right to judge you any more then you have to judge them.
It does not really matter, or at least should not matter much if they accept you or not. Do not tell them your private life, they have no need to know.
Don't do anything stupid to get caught, and they never will.
It is your life to live, in the ways that makes you happy. It is not your life to live to make others happy, that are not a significant part of your life.
What good is it to live a life that makes others happy if you are miserable? Do you really wish to live a miserable life? Life is too short, and often hard and not much fun. Enjoy the things you can while you can. Cherish those moments in life that truly makes you happy. Never let others take those cherished moments from you simply because they do not think you have a right to have enjoyed them.
Memories of great times are never forgotten no matter how hard life gets. It is these moments that make life worth living.

With a statement like this I'm following!
 
I had a lot of guilt for a long time. Not because I thought I was harming the animal having sex. I was quiet aware that animals had sex all the time and it did not bother them. It was that everyone I had ever heard talk about it said it was wrong and horrible. It being discovered also caused me to loose the support and love of family for some time. The constant message that it was wrong made me think it was and that I must be a bad person. I tried to be attracted to humans. I tried to not feel the feelings and I failed which made me feel even worse. I visited some pretty dark places. Eventually I realized that I was a terrible, miserable person not because I was zoo but because in order to suppress being zoo I also had to suppress some of the best parts of me and what was left was lost and imbalanced. I don't have guilt over being zoo any more. I still sometimes have that little voice asking is this really wrong or not. For me at least it is more wrong to try to make it go away than to accept it. It is a part of me and the animals that have been in my life because of it have always lifted me up out of dark places. When ever I have fallen I have had one show up and give me some joy, some intimate some not, and they showed me that there can be happiness. I would not give that up even if the other people were right and I am condemned for it. I would rather be condemned than be a terrible person. I also can not find it in me to believe in a any being that would connect my kindness and compassion with my love of animals and then punish me for it.
Though I have to hide this for legal reasons. I am not ashamed of it and I would say to others that are. Let go of that. realize that love is love no matter what form it takes. Let your self be loved and love others.

The world would be a much better place if more people had that attitude.
 
I know it's been said multiple times... but I like many I felt guilty and disgusted with myself in my early teen years. I tried to suppress these feelings. Eventually I got into furry porn and really took a liking to "feral" art. I told myself, it's okay as long as i keep it fantasy. I still felt bad about it. Eventually I got in contact with a zoo online who walked and talked me through the ropes of what it's like. I learned it can be mutual enjoyment and that sex with animals is actually generally cleaner. That zoo set me down the path I'm currently on, and I don't feel guilty about it anymore.

What's interesting is that from a health perspective, human-to-human sex is actually more "disgusting" than interspecies sex (because there are all kinds of human-to-human diseases and viruses such as HIV that cannot be spread through interspecies contact).

The idea that sex with animals is "disgusting" is not rational (and is based in prejudice).

Well there is a small, and I mean small chance that you could catch brucellosis from an animal but the chances are so slim that you typically don't have to worry about it unless you have a farm with infected cattle.

The other chance of getting an STD would be of you let random zoos fuck your girl, and one of them had an STD themselves. As most STDs can survive via sperm for 2-3 weeks after being fucked by an infected individual. But then again that's human-to-animal-to-human, transmission using the dog as a carrier. The dog herself will not get the STD.
 
Growing up around farm animals, and watching them breeding, joining in the fun seemed like the natural thing to do. I never felt guilt, but was always very much aware that any adults that I knew, would not approve, so I kept my activities private, so as not to be caught. Going to a rural school, there was always gossip of some kid getting caught having sex with the family cow, pig mare. etc, but nobody ever admitted to indulging in such things themselves, though I suspect it was not uncommon.
 
I have known I was a zoophile since I was 12. In middle school, also being homeschooled, I was a top student, and I performed concerts around my community as a pianist, I even competed nationally. I always loved dogs and horses, but I never had a chance to have one of my own, though I had endless fantasies about them. I had no issue with my identity until years later. When I was 15, various circumstances including my parent's divorce, being put into an abysmal academic institution, and starting a relationship with a girl based on peer pressure caused me great mental harm, and I attempted to renounce my sexuality. This mental and emotional Dark Age continued for years. In 2014, I withdrew from the public schooling system, broke off with my former girlfriend through sheer conviction, and miraculously met another zoophile, for the first time in my life, by pure chance. Growing in a relationship with him was deeply cathartic and an emotional experience I'll never forget. For so long, I had thought I'd reached my apotheosis; but it was not to be. In 2018, my relationship with my close friend, after 5 years, unexpectedly came to an end over a fundamental personal dispute. Something I believed in so deeply, so integral to who I was...was that I had no choice but to let him go. But the absence of someone I confided in, the only person to understand my identity as a zoophile...losing an individual that important shook me to my core. I withdrew from society, deeply embittered with humanity's ignorance and cynicism. But I will never lose sight of myself. My drive comes from an intensely personal space. I would say that animals are a sterling example of morality.

I will never let anyone tell me I cannot achieve my life's work. The opportunity for championing an identity as greatly misunderstood as zoosexuality is sacred.

I am sorry you lost your friend. I hope you find someone to confide in.
I may be somewhat cynical. Life and people have knocked me down too many times. But this seems very dangerous and can go the opposite way. I do not personally look forward to the storm that pushing a zoo agenda is likely to release.
 
Thank you for your support.

While I understand that point of view, I respectfully disagree. I believe zoosexuality can be the next frontier in civil rights, although I realize it has to be approached with exceptional caution.
 
I have felt shame for a lot of my life regarding my sexualities. Raised in a rigid religious household yet having certain early life experiences that opened my eyes, combined with total gender confusion did cause me to struggle a great deal with myself.

Took many years, lots of meditation and self acceptance that there is nothing wrong with me. I am wired how I am, i like what I like, and being a zoo is just one part of my sexuality and identity as a human being.
 
I learned a long time ago that there is healthy guilt, toxic guilt, healthy shame and toxic shame. Very difficult lesson.

To feel no guilt at all, ever, is to be a sociopath. If you violate your own value system, that should cause you conflict, anguish, make you want to apologize. So, some guilt is good -- if we know we've done something we need to own up to, apologize for. That's healthy.

But to feel guilt for things we really shouldn't feel guilty for -- like an attraction to or interacting sexually with an animal itself? Why? That's something imposed on us from outside. When we're not violating our own value system, but having a conflict we think we're supposed to have because other people aren't doing what we're doing, that can be toxic. Taking on guilt for something we have no reason to feel guilty for.

Bottom line, are you violating your own values? Your own principles? Reflect on that. Where is the sense of guilt coming from? Have you done something wrong?

It took me FOREVER, seems like, to discover that. I know where my "lines" are. I don't cross them, then I have no reason to feel guilt. Cross them and guilt would wash over me, and it should.

I wish I could just say to someone, "Determine what your principles are, how they apply to sexuality. Don't cross those," and magically that would make sense and everyone would be okay, problem solved.

But it's a personal process, unique to you and your set of values, your situation. You have to determine where *your* lines are, and if they make sense, if they are reasonable and appropriate to you.

Once you know that, don't do things that cross them. You'll feel much better! (Easy to say, not so easy to work through, but it's a beginning).

At first it was for me, just because of the acceptance thing if caught people around me that I knew would not be ok with it. I was young then.
But I realized that if the animal likes it and wants it every time then it’s mutual and fine. Far worst things in the world going on than being a zoo. We just love our animalistic side more than others!

Unless you grow up with animals and form a sexual bond with them while you're young, to experience it first hand, most people feel guilty about the idea. This isn't always the case though, as it's taboo and shunned by society so you could also feel guilty and wrong even while fucking your animals growing up through puberty. Finding out it can be mutual enjoyment and actually connecting with a zoophile definitely did change my mind on the matter.
 
Since the start of puberty, I was horrified to find out I was not sexually attracted to other people at all.
I realized people were serious about seeing a woman on the streets and getting horny for her. I did not experience this and still haven't felt it.
It made me feel so excluded, sad and alienated. I had nothing to do with other people. I had no connection.

My situation is so much better today, and I'm interested in talking with other zoos now, even though I am not practicing this attraction of mine.

Telling my partners about this and getting a shrug and okay as an answer every time has helped, too. People don't actually generally even care. It's just the anti-agenda is VERY loud. Was even louder when I was in a delicate age and had to face puberty like this.

I was blessed to truly, deeply love animals because of this, though, and I became a very empathetic person who can understand animals better than most can, now. It's a big plus, and the best outcome and "side effect" of this attraction - it brought in me so much sympathy for non-human persons.
 
Honestly no. When I was much younger I was more concerned with my not being straight than I was going down on a lab as often as she wanted. My attraction to animals was just part of my sexual awakening as a teen which is probably why it never was a guilt issue, but I always kept my zoo nature to myself and only let a few other people know over the years. As I've come to accept myself as someone who enjoys sex with humans and non humans alike, its just part of who I am. I have always been vigilant in keeping things under wraps, not from shame but in the interest of keeping myself and my nonhuman partners safe.
 
I only ever felt a little guilty when my ex boyfriend tried to talk me into feeling so. I left him almost a year ago, since then I have felt pretty normal just as always.
In fact I cannot imagine not being zoo. I'd never change to be "normal", for me life seems to be rather dull when not zoophile.
I love being zoophile, I love female dogs and cannot wait to experience one, one day.
 
I see no reason for any guilt. My lover chose me to mate with not the other way around. I felt seduced by him the way he took my body one day as I sat in the armchair with my eyes closed and i gave it willingly. I felt no guilt about letting him have me. As i said. He chose me to seduce and i'm quite fine with that. I gave my self willingly when home alone and was always ready to give my self to my husband as soon as he got home. He never ever missed out.
 
I struggle with feeling guilt, yes, but I'm also very early on my path of figuring out my attraction. It was guilt that made me deny my thoughts and feelings for years, which I've only recently started to overcome. I'm tired of feeling guilt and shame over wanting to pleasure a living being. I'm tired of denying to myself that I fantasise about it, that it turns me on, that deep down it feels right... I'm tired of feeling ashamed that it feels right, like I have to hide it away and pretend it doesn't exist. The only reasons I can think of to feel guilty are society and stigma, and I'm sick of it. Doesn't make it any easier to not feel that guilt and shame though

Trust me, for most people it gets easier over time.
 
No, not any more. I don't see myself as any one descriptive. I am what I am. When I was younger, I knew what had happened was not "normal" and I did feel a little guilt, but I accepted what I had done without giving a thought for the future "edition" of me. Before my dog I had already enjoyed a couple of lesbian experiences for which I had a similar guilt, but I got over it.
I have learnt to accept what I am and what I do. I do not identify as any one sexuality any more.
 
Not anymore.

When I was younger I literally thought I was the only person in the world who had thoughts like that about animals. There was nobody like me, I told myself, I'm the only one who's wrong enough to think that. I had a lot of guilt at first and hate over it. Then I was involved in Furry fandom not much longer, and thought that, I somehow found my way to people with animals and then the original BF, where I saw my first actual porn.

Changed my entire life. Literally. Finding there were others like me, LOTS of others, and others that were happy and proud being who they were helped so much.

I was proud to be zoo long before i actually engaged, and I still am. SOmetimes the pangs of shame are still there especially when I hear others feelings on the matter, but I'm happy with who i am. At least this part of me. I would be less happy as a person if I didn't identify as zoo, if I Fought the label.

I couldn't care less what people think of me beyond the fact it might be criminally damning. I'll just surround myself with people who can reason themselves beyond social taboos instead, people I can trust. But the fact it remains to a degree outlawed albeit unenforced will always make me feel guilt. For endangering my own livelihood.

Update: do kinda care about what people think, surrounding myself with trustworthy people is harder than I thought it was.
 
I used to, only because of how conflicting an issue it is. Now though, no shame at all.
As long as the animal is unharmed and consenting, then go for it. "But how can an animal consent when they can't talk?" Simple. If you go to stick your dick in 'em or lick their pussy and end up getting kicked in the face, it means "no" lol
The worst I ever got was when I was performing cunnilingus on a Greyhound and she was so relaxed that she farted in my face. Gross, but she was very relaxed and comfortable. If she wasn't, she could've easily knocked some of my teeth out with her lanky legs :p
