Man with his hand up a cow’s vagina: I’m not a zoophile, I’m a farmer. There’s a difference!
I mean… Is he getting sexual pleasure from it? If not, it really isn’t zoophilia.
A gynocologist isn’t necesarily into women, even though they look at vaginas all day.
I don’t think the invader’s pleasure is part of the equation. Gynecologists aren’t rapists because they have consent. If they went around looking up women’s vaginas without consent, they’d be rapists. And a cow can’t express meaningful consent to a human.
I have genuinely wondered how many… looks up “foot doctor” …podiatrists are into feet, how many of them aren’t and are sick of being asked/accused, and how many are in the unenviable position of having a foot fetish while also being genuinely interested in the medical field of podiatry, thereby finding themselves in a never ending war between the two.
…What was this post about again?
I feel like you wouldn’t keep your foot fetish for long as a podiatrist.
You’re not going to be looking at beautiful, healthy feet all day long.I know people who have a fetish for human body grossness. Smegma, the dirt between toes, that sort of shit. So maybe there are podiatrists out there having the time of their lives scraping off calluses and gunk.
Pfft yeah that’s very fair
I hear over & over again through entertainment media (like ‘Law & Order’ shows & other legal shows) that Raping & Pedophilila is not about sex pleasure, it is about power. Scientific research says that Raping & Pedophilila is about sex pleasure & it is about power. So it is reasonable to assume Zoophillia is the same.
Whether it is sexually pleasurable or power difference or both, it really does not matter. It really is that it is not what the animals want. You do not need to completely be able to communicate to the animals, like done within same species & races. There are behaviors that communicate things, just need someone that been around-knows them. Do not need a good Animal Behaviorist or someone who pays attention. Out of their species & not expressing a want for it, before it happens the very first time &/or the animals are trapped.
Me when I personally get an exemption from zoophilia laws
Agree with the general message, but constructing an exaggerated character that is easy to criticise by design does not equate to winning any kind of real argument.
Right? This kind of shit is why people don’t like vegans. Even if it’s not representative of the entire group, I feel like 4/5 of the time I hear vegan talking points, it’s this kind of wild nonsense.
It’s like how evangelical Christians give the whole religion a bad name. It’s fine to believe what you believe, but vilifying others for not believing the same thing is gross, ass-backwards propaganda at best.
I reject your statement that it is okay to be a Christian
Every belief has an effect, what effect does one-society of ones want to have?
Your beliefs effect your behaviors,The problems with that are far, far & far too many of our species NEVER critically think about what they believe & it’s past-present-future effects & how it is applied. Just because what your family-class-area/community-town-city-state/providence-country believes something, does not mean one should believe it. Do the HONEST & CRITICAL examination of everything presented to one.
I will always prefer to be alone over just believing in violencing-harming-killing-torturing.
It is how religions violenced-harmed-killed-tortured unimaginable amount of our species-animals & Etc… Think about this, even religions that claim to be peaceful religions, example Buddhism-Quakers, have fought or contributed to mobs’-govs.’ violence-harms-tortures-wars. I was shocked when I first discovered Buddhas were actually violencing-harming-killing-torturing other people. & why are they doing this, because of religious differences. You want to talk about animals & Etc. holocaust, it is a holocaust that never ended. That is not to say, it is just one-reason, nothing is a island upon itself, religion. It is just point-out that a religion that their beliefs have result from, through & continue in the violence-harm-torture-killing of other people, animals & Etc…
I believe that all our minds are the most powerful individual things (working together even more powerful & working with all Beings’ minds is most possible power) there is outside of things like outer space forces & Earth forces, can never control but make worse or better. With that I understand belief in no religion & all that entails has also resulted violences-harms-tortures-wars. Just a lot less, than religions!
Like my other reply there many reasons that are intersectionally intertwined.
When I use any version of violence-harm-kill-torture, I include at least mental (if you like to add spiritual, than so be it) & physical.
Or, you know, it’s a meme and people engage with it, ideally sparking a thought in them
There’s also knowing the difference between eating a burger and sticking your dick in it.
A pie on the other hand…
By that point it’s no longer an animal
They’re obviously not the same thing, but I feel like killing someone isn’t better than raping it. Like, they’re both bad for many of the same reasons
That’s quite the false equivalence you got there bud.
The point is that both zoophilia and eating (factory farmed) meat requires needless suffering for an animal. There are objections you can make specifically to either, but if you oppose the former principally due to concern for the animal’s wellbeing, you should likewise oppose the latter.
If you won’t fuck it, why would you eat it? Checkmate. Come on, man. You cannot honestly tell me those are even close to equivalent things.
It’s more like, if you actually care about it, you will won’t fuck it or eat it. Did I say they were the same thing? No, they are different types of harm.
I care about it, so I nurture it, raise it, and take care that it doesn’t suffer needlessly during its final moments. Then into the freezer it goes. I’m no factory farmer. Everything in my homestead is done by hand, with love and care. I don’t expect you to agree, just to understand that there is Harm, and then there is Harvesting, and that they are different things.
Then you are treating them much better than what most farmed animals experience. I did specify factory farmed meat.
Not only that, but it is harmful to The Living Earth, members of our species involved in the industries that make it (animals & Etc. & their products intended for their young & Etc.) & the consumers of such foods, not just those animals they consuming & their products for their young & Etc… These points should never be separated, but instead Intertwined, because more diverse communications are more successful in effect, getting people to care-critically think-change behaviors & that is reality of intersectionalism.
I would continue be a Vegan, even if being a Vegan had no benefit to myself & others of our species. Was neutral health wise & jobs involved in it was good jobs. Though how can jobs involved in raising (more industrialized is even more worse), destroying &/Or taking away animals’ products for their youth & Etc., how can be done without mental sickness? The people working in it every work-day have the highest suicide rates (not police, military & Etc.). Let alone the recordings that show additional animals & Etc. abuses some workers do upon them, definitely mental effects & animals & Etc… Animals & Etc. abuse never stays within the abusers, though could be hidden for Capitalism profits, because the abusers live with others-us. One of the strongest & thus common link between true (justice system convicting wrong people) sick people on death rows is that they hurt-killed-tortured animals & Etc… More I think about it, mental damage, hidden through recruiting & resulting in the poor & immigrant people doing the jobs. While I typing-out this reply, it comes to me there is no way for Non-Vegan Foods to be neutral in effect on all of our species. So I will now have to stop thinking of that way.
I used “& Etc.” after “animals”, because not all Beings non-Vegans consume are animals only. Example insects are on a huge decline, around the world, yet consuming insects, their products for their youth & Etc. are on the rise.
I used “& Etc.” after “animals”/“insects, their products for their youth”, because some Beings’ products we consume are not just for their youth. Example: Bees use the honey they gather to feed their youth & for building their hives.
I did not just simply use Beings (let alone Species), instead of animals/insects to not make it confusing. I have had people that are not coming from same thoughts on Life, even my brother, ask me what is meant by Beings.False equivalence aside.
So, genuine question.
Theoretically, if it was possible to obtain animal consent, you’d be cool with it ?
We’re gonna have to figure this one out when we encounter aliens.
Personally, i’m open to the idea of human-alien relationships. I don’t think most animals rise to the level of intelligence necessary to make a good romantic partner (and yes, that includes a good chunk of humans 😝), but if there were a nonhuman animal I could play chess and discuss literature with, I guess I’d consider fucking it.
Yeah, see my other reply.
Im down for some strange, but not at the expense of anyone (or anything) else.
Honestly it’s one of those “way more subjective than most people are willing to admit but we have made some lines anyway, because semi-arbitrary lines are how society functions”.
That’s before you even get in to full subjectivism’s like what even is intelligence and who gets to decide where the thresholds are.
In this hypothetical scenario I’d still think it weird but not morally objectionable
huh, that is not the answer i was expecting.
I would assume it’d be one of those “yes they consent but we don’t deem them as possessing the intellectual capacity to be making that kind of decision”
Like it is with children.
This of course assumes the human side is at an acceptable intellectual level of development.
Or even the idea that the power dynamic in such an encounter would always skew significantly in the human direction, given that animals aren’t usually (legally) considered the same as far as rights, agency and autonomy are concerned.
