Thoughts on Zoophilia?

[Scorchingwilde]

Like every other interest, it's valid. I wouldn't know how to conceptualize consent without human language but if animals can have sex with one another there's the chance it's possible, of course as long as there's not a possible injury involved in the action. I do find the way we treat animals hypocritical when it comes to sex vs consumption, of course for some people animal products are necessary for their health, but plenty of other things that are legal aren't, and can be horrible, such as inbreeding dogs to the point they suffer chronic pain and health problems. Personally I'm a bit disgusted by the thought of contact just from a public health and disease spreading perspective, but like every other sexual practice, prohibition isn't going to stop it. I think greater awareness and normalization will lead to safer practices and a greater degree of communication with doctors and veterinarians such that as a species we come to include zoophilia and cross-species contact in our models of pathogen spread and contact tracing, ultimately making it a good thing in the long run.
