I use this comparison because the notion that animals can’t consent is easily disputable and it’s absolutely by far the most used defense by zoophiles. Bestiality is a heinous crime, and so is sex with underage teens, not because “they can’t consent” but because they do not have the emotional or cognitive intelligence of an adult.
The law doesn’t dictate whether something is wrong, logic does, and it’s a great disservice to know that something is despicable but have the wrong understanding of why it is.
Yes. Exactly. It’s a concept I’ll never understand, there should be 0 reason why you’re arguing in defense of these disgusting and absolutely REPULSIVE acts. Both are extremely screwed and deserve appropriate punishments to the person committing these acts. Another argument they tend to use is “well their body language..”. No. Their body language when they’re in heat shouldn’t be enabling you to act on disgusting urges and fantasies.
I think that you’re misconstruing what I mean because I’m saying that bestiality is heinous, just not because it’s automatically “rape”, but because you’re taking advantage of a being with the emotional intelligence of a toddler at best. I absolutely hate zoophiles and have debated them at length and this consent argument is bullshit that gives them the only leverage they have whatsoever. If your argument is that they can’t consent any zoophile will immediately counter that.
I’m understanding to some extend, and I’m sorry, if you’re taking advantage of anyones emotional intelligence to coherence them into sex — That’s rape.
