[How To: ScalySex] Revised 15 September, 1997 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= The newsgroup rec.pets.herp has excellent information on the proper care of reptiles. The FAQs are particularly good, and might be of help if you are seeking to use snakes to enhance your love life. I [the writer] am actually not a bestiality practitioner myself; I peeked into this newsgroup to post a warning about an ad hoaxer who had gotten to ALL of the alt.sex groups, and posted his sleazy 900 phone sex ad with MY mailbox as the return path....sigh....but I am a herpetologist, semi-professional, and I write for several publications about reptiles. I hope this information will be of help to people who are considering using reptiles for the purposes of sexual stimulation. Please be aware that penetration of a snake, penile or digital, will cause internal injury and harm to the delicate internal structures of the cloaca. Also, the immediate reptilian reaction to cloacal dilation and stimulation (sometimes done by veterinarians in the case of constipation) is to evacuate its bowels, which are full of gram-negative bacteria. Insertion of a reptile head into the vagina or anus will cause serious injury to the animal, as their skulls are comparatively fragile, and your muscular spasms will probably crush them. Though snakes can endure oxygen deprivation for much longer than mammals can, it is not recommended. Insertion of a reptile tail is not a problem for the reptile, but may be a problem for you. In many species, the scale structure is such that rubbing against the grain will erect the rough or cutting edges of the individual scales. One species comes notably to mind as being suited for use as a sexual "partner". Helodermus suspectum (the Gila Monster) has a thick tail that is ridged and bumpy, and unlike most lizards, its tail is sufficiently strong and muscular to support the weight of the animal. Individuals of this genus are notably docile and can be handled with ease once tamed. However, if a miscalculation is made and you stimulate the reptile to bite, this could obviously be a problem - so this species cannot be wholeheartedly recommended either. Boas are a generally docile (and more commonly kept) species, and their scales are not cross-grained. Tail insertion (the snake's tail into your orifice) is possible if the animal is a female and does not have the sharp ventral spurs that characterize a mature male. However, this does put you at risk of contacting the snake's fecal matter, which may contain salmonella or other gram-negative bacteria that is very, very unhealthful for humans. Almost all snake species are suitable for petting and friction; i.e., allowing to crawl around the body. Lizard's tails, with the exception of helodermus suspectum, are not suitable for sexual stimulation; but they also may be allowed to crawl on the body. Handling your reptile in a (responsibly) sexual manner is not particularly abusive, as the reptile does not know or care whether it is crawling across your arm or your genitals. However, please be aware that many sexual acts depicted or written about involving reptiles IS abuse of the animal, and may injure it severely. I'm not being judgemental here; this is a veterinary fact. Specifically, the prohibited acts are: - Penetrating the reptile's cloaca, - Inserting a reptile's head into your anus or vagina, - Restraining the animal and stressing it (making it squirm frantically) for extended periods of time or frequently (weekly or more often), - Insertion of a lizard's tail (except h. suspectum) in your anus/vagina. Though experienced herpetoculturists and veterinarians can probe-sex a specimen by inserting a tiny metal probe into its cloaca, this is a stressful experience for the reptile, and VERY DANGEROUS for the amateur to perform. The veterinarian I work with has seen numerous cases of injury, bowel ulceration and death on snakes that have been improperly probed by amateurs. In addition, a snake's cloaca is not safe for you to insert yourself into, as it is typically full of gram-negative and sometimes gram-positive bacteria in quantities that do not necessarily harm the reptile, but that can make a human very ill. The addition of cloacal spurs and sharp-edged scales in some species makes this very inadvisable indeed, if not downright self-punishing. Sexual acts that will NOT injure a reptile: - Friction of the reptile against your body, and - insertion of a docile, non-stressed snake's tail in your vagina or anus. Tail insertion warnings: many species have sharp scales, making them unsuitable for such uses. Do not, under any circumstances, insert a snake's tail in your anus or vagina beyond the cloacal opening, for two reasons: - Your muscular spasms may injure the reptile's internal organs, beyond that point. - A snake's defecate contains trace quantities of potentially harmful bacteria, most notably salmonella. Zoonosis (the transmission of disease from animal to human) is rare with reptiles, but when it does happen, fecal contamination is usually the cause. Even healthy specimens may have trace quantities of such bacteria present in their intestines. Almost any snake's response to being stimulated in the cloacal area is to defecate; so be aware of this. Condom use is a possibility to avoid fecal contamination. Serious questions will be answered if asked; though I do believe I have covered the full range of non-harmful sexual activities possible with reptiles. Personal questions will be ignored; to reiterate, I am a serious herpetologist, not a bestialist. I don't judge what you do; I just offer guidelines for the sake of the reptiles' safety.
