That’s really niceLucky for you, I just wrote about this! Apologies in advance for the length:
“The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I was nothing like the caricature of a zoophile I’d pictured in my mind. Nothing about me had changed. I was still a nerdy woman that loved anime, stayed up too late writing crappy novels, loved my boy more than anything, hiked any chance I got, and spent my days getting my ass whooped in console games with friends when I wasn’t working or in school. Really all that had changed was that I’d put a name on a feeling I’d had since puberty.
Life would go on. The sun still shone, the rain still poured, and the earth still spun in circles. Rio [My animal partner] still loved me regardless of my orientation. He still wanted to cuddle and make out and steal my pretzels. He was happy with me regardless. So why was I making myself miserable? Why was I punishing myself for an evil that wasn’t there?
I guess once I took a step back and realized that my orientation didn’t define me, it wasn’t that hard to accept myself for who I was.
My sexual orientation isn’t a hindrance on my life. It’s not a burden to my lover, to my family, to my friends, or even to myself. It doesn’t make me a rapist or a psychopath or whatever other label is out there for zoophiles. It’s just a small piece of the pie, a fraction of the whole dessert.
We’re made the way we are for a reason. We may not ever know what the reason is, but each and every one of us has been carefully crafted by whatever’s out there, if there’s anything out there at all. For some weird reason, I was made with a taste for dogs. I don’t think I’ll ever know why. But what I do know is that I’m not a monster. I bleed red when I’m sliced into. My tears still taste of salt, I have the same reluctance to harm as anyone else, I have my hopes, my dreams, my fears, my favorite food and my favorite weather...
If there ever comes a day where I do hurt Rio, then I can deal with the consequences then. But as of now, I have yet to see that happen. Despite all the bullshit he has to go through, his undying affection towards me gives me faith that everything is just fine. That I’m not a danger to him. That the way I was made isn’t a problem for him, so it shouldn’t be for me.
Whatever the reason I was made this way, I’m willing to go with the flow and see where the road takes me. That’s all we’re doing in the end: Floating aimlessly along the river the universe made for us.”
I wish you luck in figuring yourself out. It’s a bumpy road and at times you’ll doubt yourself, but just remember that you were made just the way you were meant to be. You can’t change who you are, and as long as you’re not causing harm to others, there’s no need to feel ashamed. Just continue to live your life. And enjoy it while you can.

Shit, hon, it's a small fraction of the WHOLE DAMNED DESSERT BAR at Sveden Haus All-You-Can-Eat.It’s just a small piece of the pie, a fraction of the whole dessert.
I’m glad you are confident in your needs. This doesn’t come easily to me.<shrug> Aside from being a normal "not to be known by others - keep it out of the public eye" caution, I don't think about it at all. I'd rather mate outside my species. So what?
Guilt? What guilt? By who's (or should that be "whom's" there?) authority? And why should I give a <bleeeeeeeep>? Self doubt? Wuddat?
lol. I admire your confidence<shrug> Aside from being a normal "not to be known by others - keep it out of the public eye" caution, I don't think about it at all. I'd rather mate outside my species. So what?

Nah, that's not confidence - That's just plain not giving much of a <bleeeeep> what the rest of the world thinks of me and how I live.lol. I admire your confidence
I have never acted on my feelings and probably never will. But watching the porn is so addictive and a turn inBeing guilty would mean that you have done something wrong. An attraction to animals is not something you have done, you simply are attracted. So an attraction does not make you guilty, never, no matter what it is that you are attracted to.

I would still be a zoo if I had the choice because the way I see it is how can you ever truly be happy if your always trying to hide or squash who you are. For many many years I pretended and told myself I wasn't bi but the feelings and attractions never go awayI'll be honest. I often do. I think because of the world we live in, and the niggling fear that I am doing something wrong. I can often rationalize things, how we as humans do far, far worse to our animal companions and the fact that I enjoy pleasuring them is pretty low on the offense spectrum, but still it is ingrained in me to feel shame over something I've tried to change over and over.
If you had a choice would you not be a zoo? Sometimes I think I might. If it was a simple switch I would choose to be "normal"-- whatever that is. But I guess I really have no choice in this matter so I try to accept myself more. Some days are easier than others.

I was always so fascinated with sex with animals from a very young age so I know it’s something rooted in me. But everyday having to hide my feelings is so painful I wish we lived in an age where I could fully be who I am and not have to live in fear of getting caught or frowned upon. Normally as soon as I cum I immediately feel so guilty and disgusting for being in love with zoo. I have to shower after every time or else I feel so dirty and disgusting. I don’t know what to do but I wish I had a partner or at least a friend I could bond on these feelings with. I always feel so alone in my fetishI'll be honest. I often do.

It takes time I thinkHi all, new here, and very new to this whole community. My question is how have people gotten over the self doubt and guilt that some (like myself) feel because they are attracted to animals?
You are not alone. Sadly society judges people not just for this but many things. Unfortunately this is to a higher degree than most things. There are lots of people who feel the same as you.I was always so fascinated with sex with animals from a very young age so I know it’s something rooted in me.
