Health risk of sexual intercourse with domestic animals Bestiality is considered a taboo subject in the modern society, yet the reported prevalence rates range from 8.3% to 4.9% for men and 3.6% to 1.9% for women in normal population. Recent research, carried out mostly online, recruits and tests samples consisting of people who have sex with animals (psa) to capture the problem more broadly (sendler, 2019) The prevalence of bestiality in the general population is lower than that found in clinical samples and among incarcerated men, especially sexual offenders (table 1).
