=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Alt.sex.bestiality F.A.Q., Version 6.3 Posted !NOW_MONTH! [Frequently Asked Questions] Revised 28 February, 1997 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =============================[A - INTRODUCTION]============================== Welcome to alt.sex.bestiality! Many of you are probably wondering about this newsgroup and / or may have lurked for a while watching the numerous messages pass through this forum. As you may have seen, topics here are diverse, ranging from vegatarianism to religion and from politics to accounts of personal experiences, but all topics here relate to bestiality and / or zoophilia...normally [grin]. Alt.sex.bestiality isn't moderated so we are prone to off topic posts, but generally we run a good ship! You are asked to please refrain from making off topic posts or responding to them. You are expected to act maturely, to post responsibly, and to follow the guidelines of 'netiquette'. If you do so, you shall be welcomed warmly! Onto the questions though. This -is- a F.A.Q.! :^) =============================[B - THE QUESTIONS]============================= 1 - What exactly is alt.sex.bestiality here for anyways? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Have a question about your pets' sexual behaviour? Have a question about how to have a safe and mutually pleasing sexual relationship with your animal companion(s)? Maybe you're just curious about -why-? That's what A.S.Best is here for, as well as anything else you may wish to ask about or talk about related to inter-species sexual relations. Even if you need to talk to someone about being an animal lover, that's part of what A.S.Best is here for as well. Many bestialists/zoos here have already felt and dealt with the pressure of being in the minority and are very willing to help out a fellow animal lover. Besides being a discussion forum, A.S.Best also serves as a site where zoos and bestialists can often find stories and infomation about sexual contact with animals. 2 - What is bestiality? Zoophilia? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Bestiality is, by textbook definition, sexual contact between a human being and a non-human animal. Zoophilia is, by textbook definition, an emotional attachment to an animal that causes a human being to prefer a non-human animal as a companion and / or a sexual partner. These definitions are generally accepted around here :) Many zoophiles have extremely close, emotional relationships with their non-human partners and many bestialists enjoy the pleasure they can give and receive from their lovers. 3 - Do people on this newsgroup actually have sexual relations with animals? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- You bet'cha! :^) Many here are quite proud of that fact as well! There are also many here who have not had any sexual contact with animals but who are eager to do so. There are also those who are not interested in having sex with animals but enjoy the stories and discussion on this newsgroup. All are welcomed and encouraged to contribute. 4 - How many people have sex with animals? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [ This section written by Redvane Fox ([email protected]) ] There have been various studies but to my mind they are all flawed or dated. The most famous is that of Alfred Kinsey et al in the late 40's / early 50's USA which reported that 8 percent of men and 3.5 percent of women had "on some occasion, had sexual contact with an animal." In some rural areas, the figures for males were as high as 50 percent. However, this was a time when the chances of a 16-year-old farmer's son getting a human partner to do more than hold hands was virtually nil. Thus, animal contacts would have been more common then than now. Also, given the decline of farming in America and Europe and the increasing urbanisation of populations, I would venture a guess that there are somewhere in the region of 2 to 4 percent of men have had some sort of sexual experience with a non-human. Masters and Johnson reported less than 2 percent of women had sexual contact with an animal (dogs mainly) but others have estimated that the true figure was probably higher (let's face it, if someone comes up to you and asks "Do you fuck animals?" would you give them a straight answer?) It's also important to know that for very many people who do have sex with a non-human in, say, adolescence, they don't carry it on into adulthood - it's a teenage experiment, part of exploring the wonderful world of sex. Two of my friends have (over much beer) admitted to me that they've "played around" with animals when they were teenagers but went on to have "normal" hetero partnerships (although they both said they had no regrets and might try it again if the circumstances were right). Of people who have had sex with animals once, liked it and stayed or those whose attraction to animals was there from the very beginning is perhaps less than 0.1 percent of the population. To quote Midas Dekker's "Dearest Pet": "Earlier in this chapter I estimated the percentage of human beings that have sexual experiences with animals at a few percent. If you include in bestiality only the people who have sex *exclusively* with animals then the percentage falls far below 1 percent. Bestiality requires imagination and people with imagination usually have no flies on them. On the other hand, if you drop the requirement that for sexual contact something has to be inserted somewhere and that something has to be fiddled with and it is sufficient simply to cuddle, to derive a warm feeling from each other, to kiss perhaps at times, in brief to love, then bestiality is not a deviation but the general rule, not even shameful, but the *done thing*. After all, who does not wish to be called an animal lover?" 5 - What is considered an acceptable post on this newsgroup? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- We ask, of course, that you first of all, remain on topic, (Refer to #1 if you have questions about what is on topic.). Please post responsibly. This means please do not flame! Intelligent, mature statements will be regarded and responded to in a like manner. GRAPHIC IMAGES (GIFs, JPEGs, etc.) ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE HERE. Please post all graphics images to alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.bestiality. If you do not receive a.b.p.e.b., you can post to alt.binaries.pictures.tasteless. I repeat, do not post them here. ASBest is a discussion group, and its propogation can suffer if binaries are posted to the newsgroup. Erotic texts (stories) are acceptable material but please try and not post too much material all at once. Otherwise, feel free to join in the conversation or start up at thread of your own. We don't bite...hard :) 6 - Isn't sex with animals unethical? Blasphemous? Cruel? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This topic is often discussed on A.S.Best because it concerns many here as well as those who stumble onto this group. A.S.Best often receives flames from those who believe bestiality must involve cruelty or who believe it's unethical for any number of other reasons. At times like these, the people here have overwhelmingly voiced their disapproval for those who do abuse animals and have defended the love they have for their partners with a vast number of viewpoints, backgrounds, and platforms. The discussions on this topic remains quite verbose though and has no place in this F.A.Q.. If you do wish to get a discussion going on this topic, or any other for that matter, do feel free to do so as long as it is done in a responsible and respectful manner. You'll find so long as you conduct yourself reasonably, your viewpoints will be respected and addressed intelligently. 7 - Can I make my animal pregnant by having sex with her or vice versa? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Absolutely not. Because of things like chromosome counts, body temperatures, pH and genetic codes, human animals cannot impregnate other animals nor can non-human animals impregnate humans. However, if you do wind up impregnating your lover, or you lover impregnates you, call me immediately! I could make, that is make you, a bundle selling your story to the tabloids! [grin] 8 - Is there a way to meet with others from A.S.Best? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= If you'd like to meet other animal lovers in your area who may be reading A.S.Best, you can post a message indicating where abouts you are. It is strongly advised you not be too specific though, (by giving info like street addresses or city names.). Information such as your home address and / or telephone number should be reserved for private mail correspondence once you feel comfortable with the person(s) who may contact you. 9 - Is there a way to post anonymously? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= As of September 1996, the anon.penet.fi server has been shut down. This server was the easiest way to post anonymously to Usenet, and its disappearance has made anonymous posting more difficult. The internet community is waiting hopefully for anon.penet.fi to re-open, or for some other site to follow in its footsteps. There are other ways to post to Usenet anonymously, however. A detailed list of tools for net privacy, including pointers to personal encryption software and anonymous remailers is available at the EPIC web site [ http://www.epic.org/privacy/tools.html ]. One of the links in the EPIC web site points to a well-maintained list of anonymous remailers [ http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~raph/remailer-list.html ]. This list is also available by a finger of [email protected]. As of September 1996, only two of the anonymous remailers listed at the above site allow posting to Usenet: [email protected] [email protected] For information on how to use these servers, send mail to [email protected] or [email protected] with a subject line of 'remailer-help'. The help file for the server will be automatically sent to you. There are also sites set up as Mail to News Gateways. These services may or may not anonymize a post that is sent through them; make sure you know a server's capabilities before you use it. A list of Mail to News Gateways can be found at [ http://students.cs.byu.edu/~don/mail2news.html ]. Another source of information on anonymous remailers and posting gateways is Andre Bacard's Anonymous Remailer FAQ, which is maintained at [ http://www.well.com/user/abacard/remail.html ]. The newsgroups alt.privacy, alt.censorship, and alt.anonymous may contain useful information as well. Those URLs again, for those reading this with a Web browser:EPIC Privacy Tools Page Site 10 - How can I get started having sex with my dog? Horse? Platypus? :^) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= There are several sections on how to have sex with various animals included in the P.I.P.s (Periodic Informational Postings) to A.S.Best. See the ASBest FAQ index (posted on the same day as this document) for details on when the 'How-To' PIPs are posted. If the critter you're most attracted to is not covered by any of the current guides, ask on the newsgroup. Someone may be able to help you. If you would like to contribute your own knowledge about the critter of your affections and write a 'How To' guide, please write to [email protected] to express your interest. 11 - Are there any meeting places for zoos? FTP sites? Clubs? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= See the Bestiality Resources PIP (posted on the same day as this document). It lists zoophile organizations, web sites, and other resources available on and off the internet. (Except where otherwise specified, this FAQ was written by Kayotae Erik Blackwolf [[email protected]] and Remus Shepherd. It is currently maintained and posted by Steve Arlow [[email protected]].) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This text is posted on the first and the fifteenth of every month.
