Variables Associated With Male and Female Chronic Zoophilia

Abstract

Zoophilia as a form of sexual expression continues to this day. The present research was conducted to determine: (1) Specific variables associated with male and female chronic zoophilia, and (2) a comparison of the similarities and/or differences of each, as well as (3) their influences on the individuals in sustaining and maintaining zoophiliac practices. Results suggested six of the most frequently stated variables for both males and females, similarities or significant differences between them by sex of 5, and their relevancy to zoophilia in its sustained practice.

Ego-Dystonic Zoophilia: A case report with treatment plan and a critical look at the current state

“…Choice of SCA in this case was situational, mechanical, and a substitute for a lack of peer relationships. This picture coincides with the description of persons with zoophilia by the "traditional view of zoophilia" [4,5,11]. Paul's unexpected birth, lack of parental enthusiasm upon his arrival, and age difference between Paul and his brothers set a stage for Paul to feel emotionally rejected.…”

“…Paul's unexpected birth, lack of parental enthusiasm upon his arrival, and age difference between Paul and his brothers set a stage for Paul to feel emotionally rejected. His isolated living left Paul to invent his own personal world of entertainment which included his fantasies, singing, and sexual play with the cows, all which has been reported by other researchers as the antecedent factors [1,8,11]. He also felt inept in making friends and dating girls during his adolescent years, thus the sexual energies of a maturing young man got mixed up with cows under the influence of his cousin.…”

“…She stated that some United States do not provide needed steps to deal with the sexual assaults of unconsenting animals; sodomization wounds them. Peretti and Rowan [11] reported in their study of 51 chronic zoophiles that both men and women considered their behavior as a form of masturbation. Thus, the individuals who have SCA are using unconsenting animals as masturbatory objects.…”

Screwing the Pooch: Legitimizing Accounts in a Zoophilia On-line Community

“…The existence of bestiality and zoophilia has been traced back to prehistoric times: cave paintings dating back as far as 40,000 years depict sexual contact between humans and non-human species (Beetz 2004;Miletski 2006;Peretti and Rowan 1982;Rosenberger 1968;Wilcox et al 2005).…”

Bestiality: An Overview and Analytic Discussion

“…A discussion of other factors other than ownership statistics and animal sex preferences may help explain why individuals engage in bestiality and do so at different rates with certain animals. Mentioned previously, the literature has established that rural backgrounds are commonly associated with bestiality (Ellis 1905/Ellis 1931Kinsey et al 1948;1953;Krafft-Ebing 1892;Miletski 2002;Thomas 2011), but other recognized links include the belief that sexual acts with animals rid venereal diseases (Dekkers 1994;Krafft-Ebing 1892;Masters 1966) or improve sexual abilities (Dekkers 1994;Edwardes and Masters 1963;Gregersen 1983), ref lect a history of sexual abuse (Aggrawal 2009;Miletski 2002), and that animals are better sexual partners than humans (Peretti and Rowan 1982;Richard 2001). Some of the other less established factors that are linked with bestiality include mere curiosity (Dekkers 1994;Fleming et al 2002;Kinsey et al 1948;Kinsey et al 1953;Miletski 2002), experimentation (Hunt 1974), strong libido (Donofrio, cited in Beetz 2004), as a means to violate a taboo (Richard 2001), and for thrills (Peretti and Rowan 1982).…”
