Should zoosexuality be legal?

Surely the animal is giving consent if it is a male animal entering a female (or male if you want to do that) human. In which case that should be fine, yes?

Really our laws regarding treatment of animals are contradictory, arbitrarily decided and don't really make any sense.

Obviously I would never have sex with an animal. That said...

Animals clearly do not have a protected right to demand consent before anything is done to their body. There are many species of animal that we (legally) allow to be locked in cages, made to stand in their own feces, forcefully pumped full of "food", and then slaughtered. Other animals, pets like dogs and cats, are protected to some degree by animal cruelty laws, so perhaps forcefully entering a dog or a cat should be illegal. But what if a male dog chooses, of his own volition, to mount a ready-and-willing human female (or the anus of a human male)? And then let's return to the barnyard animals that are afforded little to no protection and rights. If it's legal to lock a cow in a tiny cage for its entire life and then kill it, why is raping the cow any worse?

I wish they'd just come out and say that dog-fcking is gross and should be illegal because dog-fckers are pervs, which is how they really feel, instead of embarking on some disingenuous animal rights refrain.
