Sweden highlights bestiality problem
The Local ^ | April 29, 2005

"AFP) Bestiality, or sex with animals, is a growing problem in Sweden and in many cases the animals suffer physical injury, according to the country's first government-commissioned study on the issue presented on Friday.

Horses are the species most often abused, the Swedish Animal Welfare Agency said in its report, which it handed to the government.

A total of 209 cases of bestiality, of which 161 involved horses, have been documented since the 1970s, the agency said. It based its figures on responses to more than 1,600 questionnaires sent to veterinarians, animal welfare inspectors and police agencies across the country.

The government last year tasked the agency with determining the scope of the problem, which species are most often abused and whether the animals suffer psychologically from the abuse."

Even normal dating must be impossible now. Not only do you have worry about who your date had sex with, but you also have to worry about who your dinner had sex with!

There IS something seriously wrong with Sweden. This is the country in which a minister served a month-long jail sentence for preaching against sodomy. In the name of inclusion and "liberalism" they have destroyed free speech and created an atmosphere of repression and suppression for everything except the sickest impulses which no one dares criticize.

Bestiality is not illegal in Sweden. A ban on the practice was lifted in 1944, along with a ban on homosexuality.

What the F***

Yes, but - what right do we have to impose our own concept of morality on others.

"If they hadn't let all the Muslims in there wouldn't be a problem. Fully as many as 20 percent of Muslim men indulge in beastiality until they can raise the money necessary to 'buy' a wife." posted by cornpone

Mind giving your source for that figure? 'Cause I ain't going to accept it as real otherwise.

Perhaps because unlike some Western countries I know they still respect their women. Read Fatima Mernissi's Beyond the Veil. The book is a 1977 study of sexuality and family modalities in Muslim society written by a female Muslim sociologist. Islam is the most screwed up culture on the face of the planet. Hide your animals from Muslims. Hide your daughters from Scott Ritter.
