Bestiality is not in a category with homosexuality....it is closer to child porn...hopefully neither will be accepted, as they involve using innocent beings for selfish pleasure.Fluffy said:I wonder if in a few hundred years, when homosexuality is tolerated and completly normal in society, if bestiality won't take its place as the misunderstood sexuality. Remember just because you don't like something or you find something disgusting, even if you find something totally unnatural, none of these things lead to this thing being morally wrong. That is making an assumption and jumping to a conclusion. Its a lovely one to make because it means you can justify how you feel to yourself.
The thing is people are only against bestiality because they are disgusted by it. Fair enough. It still doesnt make it wrong. What about if some members of homo erectus were alive and well today. Would you find having sex with them morally wrong? How about if the human race took another step in evolution, would sexual intercourse with the further evolved race be wrong? Besides noone seems to have a problem with bestiality in Star Trek or any other Science Fiction programme and there is PLENTY of it as well .
Sorry yes you are right, as it exists at the moment anyway. But then again you can have homosexual rape as well as homosexual consensual sex. I am only in favour of the latter not the former and I think that bestiality can be split in the same way. Child porn cannot be split in such a way since a child could (perhaps) never be said to have enough experience to make that kind of decision.Bestiality is not in a category with homosexuality....it is closer to child porn...hopefully neither will be accepted, as they involve using innocent beings for selfish pleasure.
I don't mean the natural right to bang any being whenever you feel like it. Most certainly not. However, if some guy has a dog, who, after a while, "presents" herself to the owner, the same way she would for another dog, then I think that it should be ok for the guy to have sex with the dog. ONLY, and only if, the dog loves the human, and consents to the relationship. Paedophilia is in a category by itself. An evil category. However, we have to determine what the age of consent should be. In Canada, it's fourteen. I think that that is a good age, because I was able to determine when, and if, I should have sex at that age. However, I don't know about my peers. There is no question for females when their animal companion is aroused for them. Take, for simplicity's sake, a dog. The dog will get an erection, and if allowed, will mount the female, and attempt to copulate. Clearly this shows consent from the dog, as the dog has initiated the encounter.Bestiality is not in a category with homosexuality....it is closer to child porn...hopefully neither will be accepted, as they involve using innocent beings for selfish pleasure.
Sorry, but I think that is SICK!Druidus said:However, if some guy has a dog, who, after a while, "presents" herself to the owner, the same way she would for another dog, then I think that it should be ok for the guy to have sex with the dog.

lol and that is the same feeling some people have towards same-gender sex. The point is, is something which is "disgusting" for some people therefore wrong and sinful?Sorry, but I think that is SICK!
1. I don't believe in the concept of sin.Fluffy said:lol and that is the same feeling some people have towards same-gender sex. The point is, is something which is "disgusting" for some people therefore wrong and sinful?
I presented my views on bestiality in an earlier reply to this thread.Fluffy said:Fair enough, what is your reasoning behind believing that bestiality is wrong or is it more of a following your conscience kind of belief?
ooo cool sorry I missed that one. Until Druidus put forward that animals might be capable of giving consent I would have felt exactly the same as you but now I am undecided. I need to research this one I think.I presented my views on bestiality in an earlier reply to this thread.
I agree with your entire post other than the above.homosexuality is two HUMAN BEINGS of the same gender who are also in love.
