I commend you Anonymous Original Poster. You've been honest and balanced about your views. Isn't it interesting that this whole debate isn't really about the consent issue is it?
I've not yet found a person who disagrees with zoephillia because they genuinely and rationally consider that in most cases the contact is not consensual.
They disagree because they find the idea disgusting. That's not a good enough reason to disagree with something, just because it's 'icky'. Many people disagree with homosexuality because they think it is icky.
Even the fandom reputation issue is a better one than simply saying 'it's disgusting, and you're all pervs'. Mind you, some of the posters have given very balanced views, but I still detect this undertone of, yuck yuck icky!
