Zoo Terminology on the "spectrum"(?).

[ZephyrZoo]

Sorry if this is in the wrong section or has been asked before.

Just curious if there is a set of terms or labels to classify where one sits on the zoo "spectrum" (for lack of a better word.) From just being zoo-curious or watching others do it to being a complete zoo exclusive. Seems like almost all various sexual identities have about a million different sub-categories or variations but clearly zoophilia isn't as well-researched as we would like it to be.

I know labels aren't always helpful or constructive but they often help people figure out where they fit in. Perhaps someone better informed or experienced can help with the right wording and definitions?

Thanks!

Yeah, I would also like to know. I base it with 3 simple terms being: Bestialist, Zoo and Zoo Exclusive. But obviously thats super simple and there's way more to it than that. Hope others can give some more insight here??

For sure, I'm sure the term "fetishist" comes in somewhere too.
