Ophidiophilia

Ophidiophilia is defined as the attraction to snakes; it is the opposite of ophidiophobia (the fear of snakes). Ophidiophilia is a subcategory of zoophilia, the sexual attraction to animals in general. People with ophidiophilia are known as ophidiophiles. Ophidiophilia doesn't always appear as sexual attraction, some ophidiophiles are attracted to snakes on a platonic (non-sexual) level.
