"People love animals - a stroke here, a pat there, a quick nuzzle in that gorgeous fur, the amount of cuddling they get is enough to make a person jealous. In Holland dogs are petted more than people. Not as thoroughly, though: that one spot, somewhere down below, generally remains untouched. The high regard in which love for animals is held is matched only by the fierceness of the taboo on having sex with them. Those who do give in to their impulses are seen as wallowing contemptibly in the mire. Hence, in spite of the dangling penises and the cries of females on heat, the eroticism of our dogs and cats is completely ignored. With these darlings we adopt the role not of lover, but of master or mistress.

Yet however indecent, it does happen: sex with animals, the ultimate consequence of love for them, making love with them. On the farm, in the brothel, or simply at home in front of the fire, but mainly in our heads. The imagination is our most active sexual organ, and it is no surprise to find art and culture permeated with physical love for animals. Leda and the Swan, seductive mermaids, Fritz the Cat, piles of porn mages, young girls and their ponies, smutty jokes, fur coats, 'fuck a duck'. And now at last a whole book on the subject, with data drawn from all those diverse sources."
