Peter Singer: Consent not always needed

[seer]

Which for a gerbil would have to include THIS near the top of the list.

Trans species Muskrat love? Say it ain't so Joe!

It looks weird...

I clicked on it. It's about as offensive as bundt cake.

"Paedophilic interest is natural and normal for human males,” said the presentation. “At least a sizeable minority of normal males would like to have sex with children … Normal males are aroused by children.”

I always knew that I was abnormal in other ways. Now I know that I am abnormal in having never bee aroused by children, or wanting to have sex with children. That is evil, not sick - evil.

One isn't abnormal for not belonging to 'a sizeable minority'. Seems pretty obvious.

So you support him in this wickedness, eh?

Maybe try a more charitable reading? Or should we not pretend you actually want an answer?

Did anyone actually bother to read the op-ed, or did you all just run off with demi's excerpt?

What possible impact could that have on the commentary?

[Jedidiah]

I read it and even quoted from it. I still think it is formalized wickedness what ever Carrikature says. And no one has been willing to make the comparison to drunken decisions to have sex being in the same situation. Yet that is bad, but wanting to abuse children is not. Wickedness.

Mebbe 50 years ago you trying to make excuses for Singer might be naive, now I think at best you in denial!!! At best.

Everyone assuming that if there's big flaw in what I posted (also link by Seer to other writing of Singer on bestiality), you and also Starlight will be all over it, saying 'you conservatives need to read more carefully, stop kneejerk blah blah blah'. Heck, in most cases Starlight will try to defend writings of progs anyway!!

But no, this time he and you don't. That's because quotes of Singer here so explicit, also indefensible, best you two can do is try weak indirect attacks at posters who made comments here!!

[RumTumTugger]

This is one of those silly threads where people take turns saying dumb things. Any serious analysis or discussion would be out of place. I'll leave you guys to your fantastic claims.

This is one of those posts of Starlight's where he does a preemptive brave sir robin because he knows what ever he is going to assert will be shown for being just that an assertion not an argument based on facts.
