Inappropriate treatment of a sensitive topic. The selected articles pull from a template and generally have zero to do with the portal topic (also an issue in the template frankly). The selected images are just lifted from Zoophilia where you will see them anyway if you click over to the article. You have to go into the "in culture" cat to pull enough related articles to get to 20, and that is a step too far as those articles are about books or movies or whatever that mention the subject in some way, not really about this topic. A bad idea for a portal that suggests inappropriate connections between innocent topics like Anthropomorphism and sexual assault of animals by humans. Legacypac (talk) 09:17, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Wildly inappropriate and unhelpful. Even if "A pet or companion animal is an animal kept primarily for a person's company..." were fixed, the page adds nothing over the relevant articles. Johnuniq (talk) 09:22, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- On that point what the heck does Exogamy have to do with this topic? Either the creator did not check the results of their automated creation or they are clueless about the topic. Legacypac (talk) 09:37, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- Exogamy is from Template:Zoophilia, which has a different creator. --Auric talk 20:36, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- Yes it is a featured article, pulled from the template. Legacypac (talk) 21:03, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

- Merge to Portal:Sexuality which has the appropriate scope for this topic. Thryduulf (talk) 10:36, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete, there is literally nothing that can be merged, the only non-templated text in this template is "zoophilia". Fram (talk) 10:42, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - If an outward-facing portal is appropriate for this topic, it should be developed and maintained with the utmost care and sensitivity. There is no evidence that that has been done, because portals were being created recklessly. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:02, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - Same rationale applies to incest. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:04, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
