"Wet Goddess" Can bestiality Ever Be OK?

[Babbylonian]

I remember when I was but a young lad. I was in Florida and the riptide was carrying me toward certain death and the Bermuda triangle with its insistent current. I was doomed! In a blink of an eye, a dolphin known nationally as flipper the TV star, rescued me. I was very thankful but flipper said he required payment for his good deed. SEX was on his mind. What could I do? He saved my life!

That dolphin was such a dog...mmmmmmm, dog.

I watched her swim away. Now I have no porpoise in life.

Sea - that's why you shouldn't get hooked up on water species is.

I think their may be a larger public health issue. Right now we get these flu strains starting with poultry and pigs.

What, the dolphin flu?

Sorry, dolphin is a mammal, not a flying fish.

Not even curious enough to peek.

It's a web comic. Some drawn nudity, no actual sex. You've seen worse if you've looked at Greek or Roman statues.

My bad. I should have given a LITTLE more information.

And sometimes it's the human that's not interested, when the dolphin obviously is...

[1] Male dolphins had made amorous advances onto human females many times. Which is one of the reasons "swim with dolphins" water parks now only use juveniles.

Doesn't that violate child labor laws?

Doesn't that violate child labor laws?

It certainly sounds fishy.

 

[ConspiRaider]

Even the Screen Actors Gill forbids interspecies sex. Okay, except with Dolph Lundgren.

If the dolphin squealed during, that means she liked it right? Please answer this question quickly, thanks.

 

[BStrong]

Not only no, Hell No!

Why should bestiality be illegal?

So this may be my suicide on this site.

First off, let me say I find bestiality gross. Ew, yuck.

Okay.

Now, many people also find all kinds of other sexual practices gross. Some people say homosexuality is gross.

But even lots of people that find homosexuality gross agree that homosex should be legal- consenting adults, closed doors, etc.

So what about bestiality? (And I'm not saying homosexuality is wrong and bestiality is right- I say homosexuality is fine and bestiality is wrong.) (And I firmly believe this) (but this is just my opinion) (and I guess that's the point...) Okay, so back to bestiality... I guess there's the issue of consent.

the animal can't form consent

but then, animals can't form consent to the way they are treated in our society in general

yet we still generally accept it's okay to put them in cages or on leashes and restrict their freedom, or keep them captive until it's time to kill them for food or fur or whatever

so is the animal's consent really relevant?

so then what are we left with as a reason that bestiality should be illegal?

zoonoses?

or is it something else?

or is it just general social revulsion at bestiality?

so then if there was general social revulsion at some other practice, like interracial marriage or homosexuality, does that justify making these practices illegal?

Anyways.

Maybe it's zoonoses. I'll accept that.

 

[angrysoba]

Is it illegal everywhere?

I suppose if you didn't have laws against bestiality then you may have animal cruelty. There are probably animal cruelty laws that even affect the way slaugherhouses are run.

To be honest, I don't know.

 

[jasonpatterson]

For some things it seems to be a fairly clear issue of animal cruelty, which we've decided as a society is sufficiently wrong to be against the law. This guy likes chickens, for instance, which isn't a compatible match. (Yes, it's an animal rights website, but the guy is real, and has been up to this stuff for a couple of decades now. Also yes, this guy clearly is messed up beyond wanting to have sex with chickens.)

On the other end of the spectrum you've got something like a male dog. It's hard to argue that they aren't able to consent when they'll happily have sex with just about anything that holds still. In that case it seems to be more a case of consistency and the fact that *YUCK* than anything else.

 

[Kevin_Lowe]

I think a near-impassable political barrier is that nobody really wants to be the one to get up and say "You know, really, why should it be illegal to let a big male dog **** you? If it wants to? Let's legalise that."

It's not that there's any terribly compelling health, safety or moral reason for that to be illegal that I'm aware of. It's just *YUCK*, and no politician is going to touch the issue with a gloved bargepole.

 

[Furcifer]

The way I understand it it's prohibited by local bylaws and not a criminal act. Which is fine by me.

 

[Careyp74]

TLDR; But will comment from what I gathered by the title:

Dude, you're sick

Just kidding. I read it, but am playing on your initial fear.

Sex with someone that has not given informed consent is (or should be) illegal.
Sex with someone that is incapable, either generally or at the point, giving informed consent is (or should be) illegal.
Animals aren't mentally capable of consenting to sex so sex with them is (or should be) illegal.
Children aren't mentally capable of consenting to sex so sex with them is (or should be) illegal.
Adults of dismissed mental capacity (to a certain degree) aren't capable of consenting to sex so sex with them is (or should be) illegal.
Adults under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or other factors are not capable of consenting to sex so sex with them is (or should be) illegal.

An adult straight person, baring factors already mentioned, is capable of giving informed consent so if that consent is met, sex with them is legal.
An adult gay person, baring factors already mentioned, is capable of giving informed consent so if that consent is met, sex with them is (or should be) legal.

"Icky" doesn't have to (and honestly doesn't since there's never been a push to make two ugly people having sex illegal) factor into it at all.

It isn't illegal everywhere.

And the core issue is that animals, like children, cannot legally give free and clear consent.

The irony of saving them from being raped, so that they can be chopped up and eaten, is something that only humans could come up with.
