I am sorry but you need to stop using the phrase "Statutory rape." It is IMPOSSIBLE to commit statutory rape on an animal by definition. You seem to be confusing rape with "statutory rape" and it is killing your argument. It is an argument I mostly agree with so I hate to see that happen.

This is why I hate combination laws, which focus on more than one act as illegal. If you want to legalize one thing, you have to automatically legalize a dozen other things as well. This is a simple case of that. I wouldn't be surprised if soon the senate were to pass a bill which then banned solely bestiality. I bet THAT one would be ignored, though.

would you kindly - logically - inform me why killing and eating an animal is OK, yet having sex with the same animal is not ?

In the old days, a man could have relations with his ol' mule, and nobody gave it a second thought.

I accepting bestiality is just the same as me accepting sodomy. I don’t accept either of the two. Anatomically and physiologically, a bull was made to have sex with a cow, and men were made to have sex with women. If people do accept sodomy, than they should not complain about bestiality. They both are not a normal function of the human body. How can a homosexual say it’s bad for a person to be into bestiality? Can the person who’s into bestiality same the same about someone who’s into sodomy? In my eyes, they are both the same. Homosexuality is just accepted more than the other.

Er... I compared killing and eating a human to killing and eating an animal.
If - as you argue - that society is speciesist, then please provide a logical argument as to why it's wrong to commit statutory rape upon an animal, other than because of Moral Outrage at the human's actions in this business.
Complete and utter nonsense.
Hypocritical and logically inconsistent legislation is of no concern to me. It's those who expediently accept such illogicalities who have to live with themselves.
So, you're in full agreement with me that bestiality is illegal only due to Moral Outrage at the perpetrator's actions.
Right. So you ''favour'' a ban on people keeping animals in constrictive spaces, yet you are perfectly happy for people to eat those same animals ?! Bizarro world.
So, if someone has sex with a cow ( which the animal may or may not enjoy ), then there's ''genuine concern for animal welfare'', yet if someone kills and eats that same cow, then there is absolutely no ''genuine concern for animal welfare'' needed ?
Please stop attempting to dress up your own illogical Moral Outrage as anything other than what it is.
An anus wasn’t made to have sex with as well.
