Here was Huma's Unnatural Argument prompt from his old sight.
A common argument used against the zoosexual lifestyle is the "unnatural" argument. in its most basic form this argument implies that sex is for procrastination purposes, and that since humans cannot have offspring with say, a dog for example, that zoosexuality is wrong.
this argument is frequently heard from religions circles, but not always. while this argument may resemble Human Exceptionalism, it really is a beast of its own; for many animal rights activists and others not inclined to see themselves as "above" animals will use this argument. some versions will say that human/animal mating goes against nature's design i. e. a man and a woman. other versions insist that no human/animal mating would occur naturally in the wild nor does any other type of inter-species mating.
Whatever version is used, they all pretty much say the same thing: Human/animal sex would not occur on it's own in the wild, nor can any offspring be produced, so therefore zoosexuality is unnatural and wrong.
Examples: 1. Zoosexuality goes against God's plan, for God intended sex to be between a husband and wife for the purpose of procrastination. 2. An animal is only attracted to members of it's own species as nature intended.
Counters: 1. Not all human relationships serve the purpose of procreation. Homosexual relationships cannot produce offspring, sometimes one or both parties in a heterosexual relationship is sterile or otherwise unable to have sex and/or kids. Also, I've heard of some relationships in which one partner has HIV, would we advocate them to have a child? Not to mention some people just don't want kids. 2. I can only laugh at this proposed augment of zoosexuality being wrong because it's unnatural. it is unnatural, i'll not deny that but what about that makes it wrong? The very existence of 99% of our relationship with the animal kingdom is unnatural. are you telling me a human riding a horse is "natural" behavior for the animal? How about a seal doing a handstand? Or what about a lion in a cage? Is that natural? Or the destruction of habitat, just how "natural" is that? Or what about the fact that dogs would not exist in their current form if not for careful (and sometimes careless) breeding? they used to be wolves, remembers? We bred the wolf out of them.
