Zoophilia in history

[PigFarmer1]

Thesmosphoria was an ancient Greek ritual where a group of woman would retire to a place, pray to ancient Gods, drink,eat, party and have especially have sex with animals (as men weren't allowed in) for 40 days ! This was possible because bestiality was not only allowed, but encouraged !

It seems to have inspired some women to set up their own underground bestiality masonic lodge called 'Thesmos something' , I can't remember , I read about it in a few Zoosbook posts a while ago ! Has any one heard about it ? Being a man I can't join, but it sounds really cool if it's true !

Isn't there the Greek myth of Epona, who was born of the union between a man who formed a sexual relationship with a mare because he hated women, and the offspring became the goddess of fertility?
I'm no historian so I probably have that ALL wrong, but still, that's a thing worth documenting if I'm at all correct.

I actually worship her!

Most people know two things about Catherine the Great: 1. She ruled Russia 2. She was rumored to have sex with horses. That was a completely unfounded smear, but it had such staying power because Catherine had developed quite the libertine reputation and so people would believe almost anything. She made no pretense toward chastity and took many lovers (this was in the 1700s, so you can imagine the pearl clutching) and she supposedly spent a lot of time in the royal stables tending to her favorite stallion, Dudley.

This is unrelated, but our pfp's go together!

in Irish mythology, Fionn Mac Cúmhaill (Finn McCool) apparently fucked a griffin's wife and killed the griffin, just cause his buddy Gruagach said so

Can I please get a link to the page? I've just spent the least hour searching with no luck.

In the book Understanding zoophilia and bestiality, the author goes in to great detail about things in zoo history i never knew about.

I remember now.....it was a group in Zoosbook ! I chatted with the guy who set them up.But very much a seedling with ambitions to become a mightly oak ! Good luck to them ! But at least it does exist as an online private room community where apparently they discuss how to organize their network of lodges ! Could be a pipe dream, but they are recruiting online members across the world. Only females and couples though. Guys only if they can bring dogs !

I would still love to hear more about the ancient Thesmosphoria animal sex though!

I'm finding absolutely no sources for this.

I'm finding absolutely no sources for this.

That's why I ask. Everything you find says it's "secret".

And I want to believe it, badly, but I need to have some evidence first. I'd lose it for a few if this is proven to be true!

Sounds like historical fan-fiction to me.

Go to Zoosbook, search 'Piggy LoveLadies' (not sure about 2nd part of tagname), and it's there among the list of his groups (he helps on
technical side).. and he said there was an American woman from California heading it. It's easier for couples than single women to get in (a private
group chat room ....I would to love read what they chat about !).
Too many false female accounts so, women need to get verifed. Men only if they have dogs or a venue(verified). If a remember correctly.

Ancient Egypt

The ancient Egyptians worshiped Gods with animal shapes almost exclusively in the pre-dynastic period before about 3000 BC (Douglas 1992).

About ancient egypt I could also add that Cleopatra was knew to have the first vibrating dildo made of wood and bees.
An interesting fact to share at parties.
"Cleopatra is said to have had a box that was filled with bees which she had placed against her genitals for stimulation, similar to a vibrator (Love, 1992). "

I wonder, whats up with having sex with swans?

Leda and the Swan. Zeus was like horny all the time. His favorite thing to do was spy on moral women that he found attractive. Since he wasn't about staying faithful to Hera, Zeus would often trick mortal women into sleeping with him. If they refused he, well, didn't take no for an answer. When Leda refused his advances he assumed the form of a swan because she liked the animal. Some will say Zeus seduced Leda as a Swan but it's pretty much a wink-wink nudge-nudge way of saying Zeus, in the form of a swan, forced himself on Leda.

@JustFine i knew that the greek gods liked mortal women and turning into animals. I didn't knew about the swan but that explains it Thx

Happy to help you learn!

Yeah Zeus fucked absolutely anything walking and usually as animals. I'm sure more pagan religions were fine and it was Judaism/Christianity/Islam that cut that down right away.

I always wonder if when we meet intelligent life, if they fuck outside their species as well.

If the intelligent life we find are space humans, I'm in.

There’s still some allusions to beast in Christianity. “Fornicating with the beast” was used for sex with the devil who was often depicted as a goat-headed, cloven-hoofed (hooved?) manbeast with seven horns and a serpent tail.

if we ever meet alien life I hope we’re compatible with them. If cross species breeding isn’t possible, hopefully sex still is.

Even when we leave vertebrates but still stick to sexual reproducers, genitals get extremely weird extremely quickly. Hell, even within vertebrates, you still end up with things like birds which have sexual organs totally different from most. I reckon the likelihood of life on another planet having reproductive organs and systems that are even remotely similar to ours is basically zero. We can't even breed with other mammals.

Even within humans you end up with totally different sexual organs. I mean, women are so weird down there! One reason more for me to stick to male dogs—they are much more akin to myself.

Yeah, makes total sense. I'd still volunteer to see if we are sexually compatible. You know, in the name of science.

That would be awesome. I would sleep with an alien.

21st-Century
In 2003, the Sexual Offences Act 2003 lowered the criminal penalty of bestiality in the United Kingdom from life in prison to two years in prison.[28]

In 2006, Denmark's Council for Animal Ethics said there was no need to ban bestiality unless it took place in pornographic films or sex shows. Only one of the 10 members of the council, set up by the Danish Justice Ministry to establish and uphold animal ethics, wanted bestiality expressly prohibited. The other members said current laws provided enough animal protection.[29] Denmark outlawed bestiality in 2015 after all parties except the Liberal Alliance voted in support of a ban, leaving Hungary, Finland and Romania as the only European Union countries without bans on bestiality.[30]

During the 21st century, zoophilia was re-criminalized in the following countries or territories: Iowa (illegal since 2001),[31] Maine (illegal since 2001),[32] Oregon (illegal since 2001),[33] Illinois (illegal since January 1, 2003),[34][35] Maryland (illegal since October 1, 2002),[36][37] South Dakota (illegal since July 1, 2003),[38][39][40] France (illegal since March 10, 2004),[41] Washington (illegal since June 7, 2006),[42][43] Arizona (illegal since September 21, 2006),[44][45][46] Belgium (illegal since May 11, 2007),[47][48][49] Colorado (illegal since July 1, 2007),[50][51][52] Indiana (illegal since July 1, 2007),[53][54] Tennessee (illegal since July 1, 2007),[55][56] Netherlands (illegal since 2010),[57] Norway (illegal since January 1, 2010),[58] Alaska (illegal since September 13, 2010),[59][60] Australian Capital Territory (illegal since 2011),[61] Florida (illegal since October 1, 2011),[62][63][64] Germany (illegal since 2013),[65] Sweden (illegal since January 1, 2014),[66] and Denmark (illegal since April 2015).[30]

When Germany passed a law banning zoophilia in 2013, the zoophile community protested and filed a suit against the government saying the law violated their rights. A few months later, ZETA, a German zoophile-rights group, put together a march that would make its way through the street of Berlin.

The note on Germany is misleading, which is no surprise, because it's copied from English Wikipedia. Germany banned forcing sexual behavior upon an animal. No force, no injury, no porn distribution ⇒ still legal. I wonder which other countries they may report wrong about.

There's all sorts of art depicting half human half animal (forgot the name of it, anthropomorphism?) by ancient civilisations. It was a big deal than as it is now.

 

[voodoodoll1907]

There is a marble sculpture Pan mating with a goat found in Pompeii in one of the villas. It seems to be a garden decor. It was a shocking discovery in 18th century.
