Is Skyrim promoting bestiality?

Bestiality is humans fucking animals. The "animal" races in The Elder Scrolls aren't actually animals, they're humans with strong resemblances to animals. This is more a furry thing.
Besides, Skyrim doesn't promote anything other exploration and slaying dragons. It simply gives choices.

I kind of like the idea of a kitty bf, saves me having a seperate kitty and boyfriend. 2 in 1!
But seriously firstly, it's just a game, secondly they are different species of sentient being. it's no different than Garrus and Thane lovin in Mass Effect.
My character will be unintelligible to khajiit's :<

Beastiality and anthro romance are entirely different. Skyrim isn't promoting beastiality in any way.
For the record, I intend to be a lesbian Argonian, at least on my first playthrough.
When the game isn't ninety fucking US dollars.
It blows my mind that Bethesda are actually trying to pull of a 90 dollar game. That's just bullshit.

Lesbian Argonian...wait...You know what? If I were to make a Nord/Argonian lesbian marriage, that is the closest I could come to Vastra/Jenny from Doctor Who. I now have to do that.PoisonUnagi said:
I mean, asari are a bit more like humans than khajit or argonians (IMO), and we know that reproduction is possible between asari and humans. Not so sure about that with the TES races. Although they are still sentient, so who's to say there couldn't be interspecies love?scnj said:

Yeah but really though, I don't think it's promoting it, I mean hell, it's allowing a... form of it but hell, it's hardly bestiality anyway, you're only marrying them not getting them in bed! What is this?!
Very true. Inter-racial couples are not a new thing in Tamriel - if you read some of the in game books in Oblivion, there are even mentions of it happening (such as in The Real Barenziah with a Dunmer and a Khajiit, and in another book I can't remember there was a mention of Orc children to human races).C95J said:
Technically, though, they are humanoid creatures capable of rational thinking and the such-like, so it isn't really an issue.
And in-game I won't mind it at all.
You do realize that there was a story you could find in Oblivion called "The Lusty Argonian Maid", right? With said character being named Lifts-Her-Tail, right? So it's already been promoted. Heavily.
So you can marry other races and have children with them? I'm afraid of having an abomination like this

Why is this thread 7 pages long???
OT: Calling marriage between two consenting sentient bipeds "bestiality" is like really offensive against the A(nthro)F(urry)P(uppet)community and stuff.

They're humanoids... so it'd be like two different breeds of dog having sex.
They all look the same, some just have pointy ears or a lot more hair.
I'm sure this topic is less taboo than interracial relations were many years ago in our own world.

Meh, there are no humans in Nirn
There are Bretons... they're a bit like us in many ways. Quite magically inclined, as a species, thought to be distnantly related to elves.
There are Imperials, also a bit like humans in many ways.
There are Argonians, also a bit like humans in many ways. Sure there may be plenty fo ways they're not as well.. but you know, they are a different speccies of sentient creture, so that's to be expected.
There are no humans, just a moderate handful of different species of sentient creatures, all of which bear a varying amount of human-like traits.
One could be pedantic and say the technical definitoon of bestiality, by the letter, involves a human.. so it isnt' possible for htere to be bestiality inthe game.
One could argue the other way and claim that argonians of khajiit having sex with other non-argonian or non-khajiit races is indeed bestiality in some way... but then you'd be being a terribly, terribly racist adn discriminatory person.... unless of course, you also wished to claim that a breton sleeping with an Imperial was ALSO bestiality... in which case folk would look at you strangely.
It might be unusual for an argonian to find themselves sexually attracted to, say, a high-elf... they, as with all races and cultures would have a deeply ingrained cultural and genetic inclination pushingthem towards certain features they would most likely find in helathy breeding individuals of hteir won race... however, where such attractions do occur, I think we are a very long way past trying to claim that it should be discriminated against or even overly distinguished.
I mean, one could go out on a limb and claim that Oblivion was promoting Necrophilia, becuase of certain dialogue options that could be found on a certain npc... but what of it, it's not so much promoting as painting a picture of a world where different people have different fetishes, likes, inclinations and desires from one another... not unlike our own world.
On a more game-centric cultural look; thus far, in the various elder scrolls universe material we have, it seems as though relationships between the "best" races, argonians and Khajiit, and elves, bretons or imperials, is treated much in the same way as interractial relationships were treated some time ago: not a particularly normal affair, and not overtly accepted, but certian they occurred, and were generally not spoken about too much. Very little material exists pointing one way or the other where orcs are concerned, however.

"Bestiality" applies to animals. The "people" in Skyrim are obviously self-aware, sentient beings. It does not apply.
