If you're not vegan, I'm not gonna take you seriously when you say bestiality is "wrong because the animals can't consent". We don't care about animal consent in so many ways, and if u aren't pointing it out when ppl eat meat then dont wanna hear u pointing it out with bestiality

this especially falls apart when you consider versions of bestiality that include eager participation and no suffering on the part of the animal; e.g., the Louis c.k. bit on having a dog lick peanut butter off his balls like tell me that's wrong while you eat a hamburger I dare u

also re: ppl saying you have to eat meat but don't have to fuck animals, this is only kinda true! You probably use lots of animal products that aren't required for nutrition. If you only ate the bare minimum in order to sustain your health it would probably look very different.

If you actually cared about animal consent you'd probably eat the minimum possible amount of meat, would lay off eggs and dairy products, no more leather or gelatin. You think animals are consenting to give u those??

also guys jfc I'm not saying only vegans can have a consistent objection to bestiality, I'm saying only they can *if* your reason for bestiality being bad is consent.
