Zoophilia in history

ZTHorse said:
I wanted a thread to free post snippets, pics or accounts of zoophilia in history. This includes governments, religions, past customs and anything else related to zoo history from the past. I think it is good to see how peoples over time have views on zoophilia have changed.

I find it interesting how different cultures/societies have different views, beliefs, traditions and taboos about any topic at hand. So on the subject of zoo history, I’m always intrigued. Especially if it was (is) accepted, or at least tolerated.
In Cartagena and San Antero Colombia (and I know this story is nothing new to many of you) I think it’s great that they encourage the guys to have sex with female donkeys. Their reasoning behind that is… it will make their penises grow bigger, and because they’re not supposed to fuck girls until they’re married. Seems logical! LOL.

But as many (and dare I say most) of those guys grow into their teens and twenties, I’m quite certain they don’t give up donkey pussy entirely.

I wouldnt spend a lot of time buying into such things. IF they are true, it seems awfully odd that there isnt greater acceptance and tolerance in those areas where that is being said to exist. There are similar stories about the Gaucho culture further South, but you wouldn't consider Argentina to be a hotbed of zoophilia. If there's more exposure growing up, why isnt there a demonstrably larger percentage of members from those places?

Much of what was written in the sixties regarding our Hobby is nonsense. At the time, paperbacks and magazines of a sexual nature were only JUST becoming mailable. Thank Hugh Hefner and Ralph Ginsburg for fighting all the way to the Scoti and winning that ability. Playboy, Fact, Eros, Avant Garde all were subject to arcane laws. When the stops came out, much was published that probably shouldve been trashed.

Much of Zoophilia throughout History has been more of an art form than literature, and more of both those forms than a physical expression of love for animals. There has never been a Burst of animal love in any known culture....there have been bursts of depictions of it in art and story....it does not follow that there were accompanying spikes of activity. The percentages are low and slow, if you will; this is not something that lends itself to fast growth. The disapproval hasnt changed but has marched in an opposite lockstep.

There is no substitute for thought. Any given zoo or bestialist must make his own decisions and conclusions. As life in general, the unexamined zoo life is not worth living...but unfortunately, many seem to think it is. Everyone gets to be who they are....but it takes thought to figure that out. Thought is worth the effort.
 
Really interesting discussion.
There was an article on the Vice website a few years ago that went into it a little bit.
Thanks for everyone's input.

Most of the learned texts that i have read, and i have read a lot seem to ignore an awful lot of written and pictorial evidence , the most facetious is that the depictions and writings are art and not historical records.

A few years ago, I watch a sensible, normal documentary about Roman gladiators. All good and vanilla (and very interesting). At one point, the aspect of pleasing the crowd was reviewed. This was early showbiz, after all. People wanted to see more ferocious lions, more athletic gladiators, indeed more of everything. If watching humans losing their lives was viewed as entertainment (albeit the modern Hollywood action movie is the equivalent nowadays), the bar was set low on what would be permitted. And that included slave girls, according to the documentary, herded into the arena to be mated by dogs as the crowd cheered and jeered to show the depravity of barbarians. I would love to say the slave girls were granted their freedom and paraded on shoulders through the streets for their magnificent role in zoophilia history. Sadly, no such luck. After being mated, they had their throats cut. To those about to mate, we salute you.

if i'm not mistaken loki was impregnated by a horse lol

She said that to avoid death. Unsuccesfully unfortionatly. She was 16, but it seems that she started having intercourses with dogs much earlier. I have a friend (she is a young widow) who bought a big dog to her doughter for the 12th birthday. After several months (4 or 5), the doughter figured it out why. =) (y) Now both of them are sleeping with him, somtimes even together. <3

The god Loki? Yes. Now whether is was intentional or not, the point was, Loki needed to distract the horse, Svaðilfari, so a builder would not be able finish his task in the time allotted (in the end, it didin't matter as Thor sliced his head open later). Loki gave birth to a 6-legged horse, Sleipnir, and was given to Odin. Unsure if Odin knew the origin.
 
The swan coupling is interesting. An Ancient Greek myth about Leda who was seduced and impregnated by a swan (Zeus in disguise). As well as bearing two kids for Spartan King Tyndareus she bore Helen and Polydeuces for Zeus.

Well as far as we know it was actually nothing new over the history of humanity especially in ancient Greece & Rome with stories of Jupiter and in Hindu-culture aswell as ancient Asian cultures. After the overtake of monotheism & christianity it got very hated and perceived as crazy.
Of course even in ancient times not everyone did it and it was something you wouldnt talk about openly but like today there have been farmers & barns in remote villages where you would get contact with animal sexuality so people got curious and tried dogs etc.
Within monotheistic faiths it was seen as sodomy & big sin so these deeds would get you killed or shamed forever especially in dark ages but still when you look at hindu-cultures animals are an big part there and people interacted sexually aswell like we have statues & scriptures and even islamic empires the high noble & rulers could do inside their 4 walls what they wanted like the Harem and some have been very open for animal pleasure.
All people & cultures did zoophilia some way or another others more and the others not at all still it remains till today taboo and shameful in society.

Thank you! Gotta love the elephant and the bear. Those were some dedicated women!

There were no written documented cases of domestications. But there were cave drawings depicting people working with animals and even some depicting sexual acts dating back to around 35000 36000bce. However trying to find those specific depictions online is difficult. They are in a cave system in France is all the more I can find.
Click to expand...
Paintings on cave walls at Altamira may date back 36000 years bce. That does not indicate that those paintings are bestial in topic. In fact they are not. Paintings at Lascaux do have bestial topics mixed into the other narratives but those only date 12000 years ago. Sweeping statements, and glittery generalities are not necessarily truth, and usually turn out not to be factual at all.Trying to assign "legitimacy" to our little hobby is understandable, but if one pursues that course, it must be with facts. At this moment the facts support only the same random occurence 12,000 years ago that one would expect to find today....there is no viable reason to think that anything has changed, except for the presence of more voyuers due to our additional exposure via Internet.
 
I dont for a second believe people actually had animal heads or bodies, or that humans got animals pregnant, etc. Interesting thread though none the less.

It is a fact that shepherds once spent months at a time in fields with the flock no where near civilization
People get horny, sometimes animals get horny too
Sex happens
Still does

If you think about it, it's really as simple as that. If the opportunity arose and someone felt like fucking a horny animal and they were down to fuck, it happened. No one will ever know how often or how rarely bestiality occured prior to civilization. All we can do is ponder and speculate.

True story: Years ago I was visiting Italy, and went for a hike in the country outside of Rome. I saw a Sheppard caring for his flock and struck up a conversation with him. Eventually I worked up the nerve to ask him if I could have sex with one of his ewes. I was terrified yet so horny. I also knew for a fact that Sheppards and farm boys all over the planet have sex (at least once in their life) with a sheep or other farm animal, and likely many more times than that.
To my surprise he didn’t even bat an eye. He said “sure, no problem” and then proceeded to catch one for me to have sex with. Now a days I would NEVER ask a stranger if I could have sex with their animals, and throw caution to the breeze like that. But way back then I was young and horny, and took a risk that paid off.

In 1964 I read a novel called " Those who are about to die salute you" and as you say women where in the arena and all sorts ofanimals fucked them usually to death . Also the trainers where paid by wealthy women to rent goats dogs horses etc for sexual pleasure

That prehistoric drawing just got me to wonder. That must just be what some prehistoric artist imagined..rather than something he did or saw. At that period in time, there were NO domesticated animals..and a wild equine would never let a human *that* up-close and personal ?? :) Or it's a case of necrophilia ??

How do you onow animals weren't passive enough for this to happen?

Well I included it in the picture in case one our french speakers could read it. I do not know french, and the text is not entirely clear. I read through it at first looking for any mention of the animal, gender, etc... I thought it was far more generic talking about funeral practices and stuff. Here is my copy of the text google translation (I once again repeat I don't know french, I cannot correct the spelling off the top of my head in the cases I couldn't read the letters, don't laugh too hard):

I'm French, the translation is right ^^

So human/animal coupling is a huge theme in lots of mythology! One major example is the wife of King Minos, who coupled with a bull and gave birth to the Minotaur. Other examples I can immediately think of include animal brides (touched on here), the various exploits of Zeus, and other myths related to shapeshifting. In terms of historical information, a lot of classical authors accuse the Egyptians of bestiality, but, much like today's jokes against the Welsh (or Scottish, Kiwis, etc.) it was likely just an insult. I did find some references indicating that some tribes indigenous to North America seem to not have had a taboo against zoosexual behavior, but I want to do more research into that. And obviously, religion managed to get its hands on this, as it has so many other things. Abrahamic religions have proscriptions against it, in Leviticus 18 and 20, although in the New Testament, some scholars have debated if there remains a proscription against zoosexual acts, based on Jesus' overturning of Judaic law.

I'll let y'all know if I learn more as I do more research.

It’s honestly incredible how the diverse spectrum of human sexuality, including zoosexuality, was so widely respected until Christianization.

That book was written in 1958 as prurient fiction. Though the author, Daniel Pratt Manning had a fair reputation as a writer, veracity, without any real backup research, is often questionable. In the best researched areas animals often ended up dead, if the Slaves did not. But Rome was about profits. I suppose if it sold tickets....but thst would have been profligately wasteful. Renting a sex partner might have been truthful...but the first hand accounts of Roman sex practices are almost all handed down AFTER the Fall of the Empire.

One example of such exaggeration is Pompeii and the other towns Vesuvius took out...for centuries a man's education was not complete without a males-only tour of those ruins....supposed examples of Hedonism in that day. But when you see the photos of the ruins and so-called examples, many are of things out of earlier Greek myth. 'The Glory-Hole That Was Rome' was mostly imaginary.
 
I read long ago there was a woman who got caught during bestiality and accused it wasn't just lust, she was really in love with her dog but a king or something told she'll be forgiven if have sex with him, woman accepted the deal and told this king his cock was smaller than the dog and got executed. Cant recall her name or where i found it all i remember is this was a very early documented case

I'd love if someone knows something about this could help me

Sounds like the stories surrounding witchcraft accusations. It MIGHT be true, but how many adult women would be so stupid as to tell an authority figure, a Confessor, a Fiefholder, a King, that a dog was better? If it has roots, she had something someone wanted, but she wasn't giving it up. It sounds a little like the story told of Claudine Culam, which is here...I have some doubts about stories like this. Even in the Middle Ages prurience had entertainment value. Check out the "Canterbury Tales"...Fly Nicholas and the Wife Of Bath's stories were fiction written about 1300ad
