    So…

    Most of our domesticated species actively and wilfully participated in their own domestication in one way or another, because they realized that hanging around humans was good for their survival. Especially cats. They were basically unchanged and never selectively bred past “hey my good mouser had kittens, you want one neighbor?” up until about 200 years ago.

    Animals can absolutely tell you “fuck right off I do not want that right now,” but they can also be trained to tolerate a lot against their own wishes (i.e. veterinary procedures) Which… Don’t use that against them just for your pleasure. That’s sadistic. And gross.

    Add in that most female animals do not engage in sex for pleasure, barring a select few species that should not be kept as pets, and you have your answer. Don’t be gross. Keep your deviancy to yourself and your chosen, consenting, adult, human partners.

      Your best argument is it’s gross. That’s something I agree on. My argument is that not all beastiality is rape as defined by our understanding of consent with animals.
