My experiment on OKCupid. (self.zoophilia)

Hi all.

1st time poster here.

Anyhow, last year I made myself an OKCupid profile (Ima dude). I wasn't into finding an LTR, but was curios about how many women would be turned off by the idea of zoophilia.

I created a profile, made it very robust, answered a TON of questions, and under most private thing I put, "I am a zoophile and am open to questions and willing to talk about it."

A few woman may have been freaked out, as after initial contact, once I pointed it out or answered the question they had, they dropped communication.

However, I did strike up lengthy and friendly correspondence with four different women, all open minded, not freaked out. I even went out on a date with one and the others wanted to meet too. Another woman I met was at first put off, but was open and asked a lot of questions. After about two weeks, she had done her own research, and she was even curious about the lifestyle and fantasized about trying it.

I just wanted to report this. It seems that as a community, we tend to be private, but this experiment taught me that being upfront and open can net positive results.

Just thought I'd share and wondered if others had similar experiences.

That's really interesting. Did any of the dates work out? What was the conclusion? I added a zeta at the end of my intro paragraph, but no one ever picked up on it.

Forgive me for being slow, but what does LTR mean?

They are out there, they are into it... I was lucky to have found one!

I also put my zoo status on my OKCupid profile and pretty much get the same response. There are some people who are OK with it, but most aren't. Which doesn't really matter much to me, I'm already in a relationship with someone who accepts that part of me. I just happen to be poly and am open to new partners.
