I am here for support if you need any. (self.zoophilia)

Since zoophilia is a controversial subject to say the least, and it may be hard to find a listening ear and non-judgmental advice, I would like to offer it to those who need it. Feel free to bring up anything you like (even if you do not need support and just want to chat). I am not into zoophilia, so I will not have much to contribute there other than my research (mostly just stuff about whether or not it is really 'bad'), but I believe zoophiles have just as much a right to be as homosexuals, asexuals, bisexuals, etc. and I am here for you if you need me. You can type it here or send me a private message if you do not want to share it with everybody else as well.
Thank you, truly.
Personally, I'm fine, but it's fantastic that you're working to reach out. Such support (especially when coming from non-zoos) means a lot to a great number of zoophiles. It's very kind of you.
I'd like to express my appreciation as well. I was recently going over a court case in Canada from 2012 of a zoo activist. In the end without support from civil rights lawyers we are facing a tough battle. Ever little bit of support and understanding prevents harm to both the humans and animals in these relationships. Thanks again.
I would like to learn more about it.
EDIT: Oh, yeah! Brian Cutteridge.

thank you. hopefully some day i will take the time to read that.
Wow, thank you. This is really wonderful.
What prompted you to spend time researching this topic? Is your interest professional in nature?
I first started looking into it after giving some thought to it. I was used to everybody just saying "that's just wrong" and writing it off but after thinking about it for a minute I was thought "why do we even care?" After doing some research on the subject and a bit of waffling on what side seemed correct, I eventually came to the conclusion that it just not all forms of zoophilia are wrong by any non-religious non-opinion based standards. My conclusion did not really get set in until I got some discussion here on this subreddit about some of the issues I could not fully resolve with research (as scientific research on the subject leaves quite a bit to be desired as far as informative non-biased evidence goes). If you would like to see the discussion here is a link. http://www.reddit.com/r/zoophilia/comments/2bcnpk/hi_i_have_a_question_for_you_zoophiles/
I think ultimately what really drove me to do the research though is my desire to be truly open-minded. It is hard to find people who are truly open-minded and non-judgmental about truly any subject so I decided I would just have to figure these things out for myself rather than depend on another's opinion.
