Zoophilia - Should it be banned?

You point that animal genitalia is pretty much the same is just so wrong it hurts, literally.

Horse ripping or splitting is a prime example, and often leads to deathfor the animal. ( due to size differences and differences in the way the penis functions, there is a high likelihood of the animals penis simply splitting as it tries to bang a human. For all the gents out there think what would happen if you tried to bang a soda bottle). Not to mention the host of infections and similar injuries that get caused to dogs used for the same purpose.

The "but it likes it" defense also sticks in my craw, my cats would like if i gave them pounds of butter to eat, but that will cause them health problems as well. Animals ant very good at controlling their desires, often to their own detriment.

Hi SadHatter.
Horse ripping is an expression used to describe sexually or non-sexually motivated attacks on horses where they are cut and stabbed multiple times. The term is also applied to incidences of facial and genital mutilation of horses. It is not and never has had any connection to sex.
A stallion is in no danger of injury to his penis from having sex with a human. The idea that the penis could somehow split is absolutely insane. I definitely think if that was something that could happen then you would read about it in the veterinary textbooks.
Actually when having sex with a stallion it is the human most at risk due to aspects of equine anatomy.
If you could cite a source for the place you got your information I would be interested to see it.

It is also untrue dogs are at risk of infection through sex with a human. If a person had very poor levels of intimate hygiene and didn't keep themselves and their partner clean down below there is a risk of some type of low level infection, but this is rare and easily avoidable by simply washing regularly.

And yes fundamentally all mammal genitalia is the same. There are a few different shapes and layouts but features such as a vagina, vulva, uterus, penis, testicles are all found in ALL mammals. Now their are 2 main types of mammalian penis. Thats right two type. One is the fibroelastic type found in cows. sheep, deer, pigs where erection isn't caused by blood engorging the penis but by muscle control. The other becomes erect by filling with blood, this is what us, horses, dogs and others have. So when I describe the basic anatomy and function as fundamentally the same I am really telling the truth!

Lastly your example of feeding a cat butter is a completely inappropriate example. A cats desire to eat butter will cause it health issues if it is allowed to simply eat butter all the time. It is a desire of the cats that we protect the cat from.
Sex on the other hand is not harmful, and so having a desire for sex isn't something that an animal needs to be protected from.
There is no genuine reason that can be given to back the opinion that sex with a human is detrimental to animals.

Also as a heads up to you SadHatter and others who may post after you, before you invent any more splitting penises or other medical condition I will just give you a heads up that I am (believe it or not) a fully qualified Veterinary Surgeon. So when it comes to all that anatomy stuff, the infectious diseases, public health risk and to injuries that can happen to genitalia during sex I will notice if you make stuff up.

Welcome to the forum, Flared Logic. Thanks, I have also noticed that the replies to this thread have been mostly measured and interesting compared with the replies in the incest and necrophilia threads.

Hi angrysoba and thanks for the welcome. Am intrigued to have a read of those threads you mention though necrophilia in particular gives me the shivers just to think about it.

The Enumclaw case would tend to confirm that. It was the intestine of the man, and not the penis of the horse, that split. The hazards of this predilection seem to go well beyond social prejudice.

Do zoosexuals sometimes gravitate toward wilder species, like bears? I guess the trick would be to survive the first date. Your friends will know it didn't work out if they find a well-chewed femur.

Definitely Charlie W. There are several species of domestic animal where the males penis potentially could cause fatal injury to a human. Though if you act promptly perforated colon is in no way a guaranteed death sentence.

I have spoken to zoosexuals that prefer wild animals. It's big cats most commonly that seem to be liked, though whether it is actually possible to survive an encounter with even "tame" individuals from species like these I do not know. As far as I am aware those who prefer animals such as big cats, wolves etc often have a relationship with a domestic animal instead as obviously most have no prospect to get access to wild animals.
