[su_right_ad]If this were in a less respectable publication, it would be difficult to believe. New York Magazine‘s “Science of Us” column has an interview with a zoophile who likes being with horses. Here is some of what is said, but the whole thing is definitely not for tender eyes.

When did you first realize you were attracted to horses? Do you have a horse “coming of age” narrative?
The first time I saw a horse I was 7 years old. There was a carnival in a parking lot across the street from my house and it had a parade of them walking around in circles. I begged my parents to let me go so I could ride the ponies, but when I got on a horse’s back I was absolutely horrified. I bawled my eyes out. I think I was bothered by how awful the situation was for them. All they did was go ’round and ’round; I could sense something about that in their attitude.

Did you experience sexual feelings?
No, I was only 7. I started to notice horses in “that” way when I was about 11 or 12. Everybody else was stealing their dads’ Playboy magazines, but I had a book called The Big Book of the Horse.

Your Playboy?
Essentially. It was a very interesting book — everything you ever wanted to know about horses. At the time I didn’t really think of myself as different or unusual; it was just what I was interested in. I wasn’t going to go broadcast what I was doing, but I also wasn’t thinking to hide. I feel like my sexual development was bang on — I just had a different affection.

And then it gets graphic.[su_csky_ad]

    Is he related to the West Virginian that got caught doing his dog and was pleased to inform the constabulary that she was spayed and he was gentle..

    • Carla Akins November 22nd, 2014 at 2:13 pm

      are you talking about the one that kept repeatedly getting caught?

      • rg9rts November 22nd, 2014 at 2:26 pm

        Yup

        • Carla Akins November 22nd, 2014 at 2:29 pm

          I remember him, he didn’t seem very bright.

          • rg9rts November 22nd, 2014 at 2:46 pm

            The dog wasn’t happy either

  3. neworleans878 November 22nd, 2014 at 2:09 pm

    I guess nightmares have a whole different meaning for him than for us.

    • rg9rts November 22nd, 2014 at 2:10 pm

      It’d be a bitch if it was his dog

  4. Carla Akins November 22nd, 2014 at 2:15 pm

    Isn’t there a reality show about about attraction to…unusual things?

  5. tiredoftea November 22nd, 2014 at 4:53 pm

    I will never watch “The Horse Whisperer” in the same way, again!

    Coincidentally, this man must have a malfunctioning olfactory sense. I’ve ridden horses (in the purely god fearing Christian sense). And they STINK.

    • starskeptic November 22nd, 2014 at 8:32 pm

      I don’t think “Christian sense” means what you intended.

    Awkward moment on the first date: “Why the long face, honey?”

    Yes, I had to go there.

    • starskeptic November 22nd, 2014 at 8:30 pm

      I think this guy’s into long faces.

    The interview is an interesting read regardless of the topic. The interviewer is friggin heroic to remain so impartial.

    That all being said, I can’t in good conscience say I’m against Puritan authoritarianism and religious mind control and then turn around and tell other humans that I think they are twisted because they are following their instincts. It’s not my place to tell other humans WHAT their instincts are.
    I can only say in general that I don’t want anyone to get hurt. Even that isn’t my business to some extent (look at primitives and their extreme tattoos and body piercings).
    My views really strictly come down to victim mitigation. Without getting into Star Trek like discussions surrounding definitions of consciousness, how do we know the animals aren’t getting hurt? Well, I eat meat so I’m off the board of judges. I’ve seen what happens in slaughterhouses. I’ll recuse myself. Someone else figure this out LOL!
