So you apparently are an everything-whisperer or something? How the fuck do you know what an animal feels? I'm not saying that all animals think just like humans do, but I know very well that a lot of them are very capable of emotions, in their own way. And even if an animal weren't to perceive rape in the same way, there's no telling if an individual animal would find that treatment and relationship to a human to be in some way traumatizing.Regnes said:Sex is entirely a matter of perspective, we as humans take it very seriously, while animals don't. You take your dog to the park and some dog comes and shags her, by our definition the dog just raped her, but do you see your dog huddling in the corner for ages like some victim? Nope, animals just don't give a fuck about getting fucked.TheVioletBandit said:Regnes said:I don't consider it abuse to have sex with an animal as long as it doesn't physically harm them. That being said, natural selection, if he wants to fuck a lion, his funeral.
Even though it may not physically hurt the animal it is still rape/molestation as the animal has no way to vocally object to or give consent for the action, and even if they could it's disgusting to take advantage of an animal like that which is most likely no more intelligent than a small child. Also, if he is having sex with dogs it probably is hurting them.
The most they will perceive of it is a show of dominance which is completely normal. We all have dominant/submissive relationships with our pets or animals, it's just the way things are.
That being said, I clearly stated that it is wrong to do if it physically harms an animal, so clearly banging a female dog was out of the question to begin with.
And while we're on the topic of raping lions, when they get a new mate, their kids tend to die. I would really like some concrete proof on there being no psychological significance of rape in species with that sort of thing going on before anyone goes, "Yeah, let's fuck the lions, they don't give a fuck." Especially with those videos of the crazy lioness who kept adopting baby prey animals.
