May I join? (self.zoophilia)
submitted 2015-03-25 21:49:43 by ursusem

Hello, I'm new to this reddit but not new to zoophilia.. I've been reading on here the past couple of days. I love animals to a sexual extent and would love to know more about other zoophiles. I'm not entirely sure how to completely accomplish that I suppose my best bet would be the Internet... I feel like it is hard being zoo especially because it feels like no one can really relate to how I feel about animals. It's lonely and no one understands you. But based on some of the few experiences I've had it seems as though a lot of other zoophiles do not seem to have a great interest in connecting with other zoos. :/ I wonder, how can we affect change in the world if we can't "stand together" and show the brotherly/sisterly love? If we can't love ourselves first no one else will. There's strength in numbers, you know!

I just don't feel that zoophiles support each other like they ought to!

Hello and welcome. There's no real barrier to entry in discussions here (not even being zoo). But I see your point about a lack of support networks outside of discussions boards. The problem is that there is a lot of paranoia out there (justified oftentimes) about what happens when zoos get together in real life. There have been raids, arrests, sting operations, etc. It probably helps if it's not in the context of posts like "LOOKIN 4 HOT DOG COCK INSIDE ME !!1!", but even peaceable legal assemblies are a little odd due to the fact that most of the time we must be silent in public life.

Well, you are more than welcome but to be honest a lot of zoos already have a lot of friends. They tend to be, but not in all cases, interesting loving friends. There is definitely loneliness amongst even those with the most friends as they often do not feel they can truly be themselves. There is some justifiable paranoia as well...

Zoos may have friends out there in the world but are their friends also zoo? How can your friends relate to you if they are not also zoo? Sure they may be able to relate over other things but they can't relate over the topic of zoophilia. Do you mean normie friends or do you mean zoo friends? I don't feel like there is much of a community among zoophiles which I think hurts us and our cause.

I'm gonna direct you over to http://forum.knotty.me

Yes, we do have problems with secrecy (as we must) and we do have problems coming together, but I have met some very great people over there, some people that are very supportive and just great to talk to.

Feel free to PM as well.

I assure you it is. :D

It was the first place I went when I was new to the community.

I started looking into the community probably like 7 years ago. I've been zoo since I was born basically. Back then the main forum I knew of was BeastForum and I contracted a human boyfriend from there. We're not an item anymore.

Nobody sees us,/Stops us, betrays us;/The small grains make room.

I don't intend to cause offence, but it seems to me that you're mistaking reservedness and meekness for insularity and surliness. We get along amicably, many of us have personal contact with others over Skype; indeed, some of us have met in person.

I believe that, as zoophiles, we are too few to stand upright and face the world, even standing together. I think we'd be obliterated. I see the building of a web of personal knowledge and contact as far more important than erecting a wall. We do not need to march through city streets holding picket signs to call each other friends.

Of course, reaching out to zoos for its own sake is something I do think we should do, and I like to throw my Skype out for reasons to that effect. If you'd like to talk, my username is the same as my /u/ - just let me know who you are in your contact request.
