I would definitely not say it’s as bad as bestiality, since you’re at least dealing with another sapient being as an equal, but I would still imagine the horse- or deer-parts to be rather unappealing.
I’ll go with something similar to what Ale said: I could see a relationship, but not sex.
I would totally bone a centaur, and imagine what it would like to date one and go hiking with him/her! All the power of a horse to carry your pack or even yourself, without needing to deal with a non-sentient being!
Now, cuddling while sleeping might be awkward to manage.
It doesn’t really sound appealing if I’m going at the horse parts, but I feel like in general I’d have a hard time passing up sex with mythical creatures. How often does anyone get the chance?
Well, the whole “hung like a horse” thing seems to present a problem for the human female. Consider, though, that if said Centaur IS hung like a horse, perhaps a good 6-8 inches could reach past the forelegs and provide adequate…company.
I’m not going to post a link, but there are photoshopped pictures you can Google that depict females with a humano-centaurid* body plan: the standard package, plus an extra lower torso, pelvis and legs of human appearance in the back.
I’ve heard those called “humantaurs”, or “girltaurs”; “boytaurs” being the male version obviously. There’s an entire family of kinks involving duplicated/extra body parts like that.
Yes, but it doesn’t refer to centaurs as such. Centauroid would be the one you are looking for.
I was expecting to be freaked out, but the one and only picture I found of a female humantaur wasn’t that bad. I actually could understand the fetish, as it looks like a normal girl standing straight up, with another girl behind her with the head between the first’s legs, in perfect standing doggy style. (ETA: arms are between the legs too, I guess.)
It also made me notice something I’d never thought of before. A Centaur is not half-person half-horse. While you do have half of a person, you have much more than half of a horse: only his head is removed.
