IT is always utterly amazing to see that some folks apparently can't discern the difference between what adults are, what they do with each other, and how they identify themselves ... and the clear predatory crimes against children or animals or corpses that are so commonly brought into these discussions. (Bestiality and necrophila haven't shown up in this discussion yet, but they usually go hand-in-hand in these sorts of discussion).
Once again, the clear dividing line, clearly visible and comprehensible to almost everyone, is the ability to consent.
Children (animals, dead bodies) cannot give their consent to sexual intercourse ... by legal definition.
I find it shocking and disturbing that this is so unclear or uncertain for some.
I think you are making a similar mistake as several othe rmembers. This thread isn't positing child molestation (or the thread would be 404'd). Its discussing a grown man who believes he is a girl. I.e., delusional.

If a grown-up child and one of its parents wished to engage in sexual acts with each other, how many would find that acceptable?
Just asking.

a reply to: Krazysh0tWhy bring leagilty into it? I was interested in whether you were morally opposed to it or not.
You wouldn't mind two of your children indulging in incestuous acts?

What do you think?
Obviously most would find such behavior repulsive. Thats just the way we are. Unless you get all Freudian, anyway.
I'm not sure of the point being made here. Are you suggesting that if one is to get away with something, then it's acceptable?
But in the end...what the world doesn't know it cannot condemn.
Do you genuinely believe that angry mobs would form in such a situation?
So it would stand to reason that someone in such a situation would rather not have it be known, as it is repulsive and it is likely that they would have the villagers storm their gates with pitchforks and torches for their bestial acts.
Me too.
My view: i can hold an opinion without trying to enforce said opinion on others.

a reply to: Krazysh0tSo you're not morally opposed to it, but for some reason you wouldn't like your children indulging in it? Is this merely a vanity issue?

a reply to: Krazysh0tSo your objection would be on purely cold and rational terms? you wouldn't mind oral sex? You wouldn't mind homosexual incest?
