Joan Previously Wrote:

My mother never told me that sex with a donkey was wrong; somehow, I just
knew. 

 

I Offered a Challenge Regarding Moral Standards:

I've commented a bit to this in my response to Joe.  To add to that a bit
however, I'd be interested to know how you morally distinguish so strongly
between sex with a donkey and leaving your husband for another woman.

 

Joan Re-Answers this Challenge Now:

My sexual orientation -- I'm a lesbian -- bears no relationship whatsoever
to bestiality. I find the analogy invalid and the comparison insulting.

 

Me:

Sorry, Joan.  No insult intended.  I thought you were the one who made the
original analogy.  The mere fact that such relations with a donkey could be
called "sex" shows that the comparison is still very usefully for analytical
and argumentative purposes (According to Joan, God is not even capable of
sex; but a donkey is).  There are people out there who enjoy having sex with
animals however, people who are just enjoying themselves and not hurting
anyone else or any other animals in the privacy of their own home.  And so I
would imagine that they would be very offended by the insult Joan has felt
in the argumentative point of mine.  Since I was charged with insulting
Joan, I wanted to make this brief note in defense of my character.  Although
it is a bit incidental to my defense, I should note that I don't think that
lesbianism is on a par with bestiality; I'm sure Solomon's bed was filled
with it, and I think that many 'manly' men are tempted with the thought of
two girls at once; and any guy knows he'd need some help pleasing both of
them.   Anyhow, I don't wish to continue a discussion with Joan that might
offend her further.

 

Thank you
