I wonder how these two are compatible "facts" and if there are actually facts to back this up. I was having an argument with a friend recently over whether it was "mean" to my cats to neuter them, and whether I was doing it for their good, or for mine. He said the cats would miss out on enjoying sex, and would not benefit from it any more than people would, and I said cats don't enjoy sex anyway, and live much healthier and more peaceful lives when neutered.

Which reminds me of this little Burroughs story:


"Did I ever tell you about the man who taught his asshole to talk?"

Did I ever tell you about the man who taught his asshole to talk? His whole abdomen would move up and down you dig farting out the words. It was unlike anything I had ever heard.
This ass talk had sort of a gut frequency. It hit you right down there like you gotta go. You know when the old colon gives you the elbow and it feels sorta cold inside, and you know all you have to do is turn loose?
Well this talking hit you right down there, a bubbly, thick stagnant sound, a sound you could smell.
This man worked for a carnival you dig, and to start with it was like a novelty ventriliquist act. Real funny, too, at first. He had a number he called The Better Ole that was a scream, I tell you. I forget most of it but it was clever. Like, "Oh I say, are you still down there, old thing?"
"Nah I had to go relieve myself."
After a while the ass start talking on its own. He would go in without anything prepared and his ass would ad-lib and toss the gags back at him every time.
Then it developed sort of teeth-like little raspy in- curving hooks and start eating. He thought this was cute at first and built an act around it, but the asshole would eat its way through his pants and start talking on the street, shouting out it wanted equal rights. It would get drunk, too, and have crying jags nobody loved it and it wanted to be kissed same as any other mouth. Finally it talked all the time day and night, you could hear him for blocks screaming at it to shut up, and beating it with his fist, and sticking candles up it, but nothing did any good and the asshole said to him Its you who will shut up in the end. Not me. Because we dont need you around here any more. I can talk and eat AND shit.
After that he began waking up in the morning with a transparent jelly like a tadpoles tail all over his mouth. This jelly was what the scientists call un-D.T., Undifferentiated Tissue, which can grow into any kind of flesh on the human body. He would tear it off his mouth and the pieces would stick to his hands like burning gasoline jelly and grow there, grow anywhere on him a glob of it fell. So finally his mouth sealed over, and the whole head would have have amputated spontaneous- except for the EYES you dig. Thats one thing the asshole COULDNT do was see. It needed the eyes. But nerve connections were blocked and infiltrated and atrophied so the brain couldnt give orders any more. It was trapped in the skull, sealed off. For a while you could see the silent, helpless suffering of the brain behind the eyes, then finally the brain must have died, because the eyes WENT OUT, and there was no more feeling in them than a crabs eyes on the end of a stalk.

I am really fed up hearing that - why do think animals are having sex? Humans are the only species that consciously understand that sex leads to babies, and hence the only species that ever has sex for a reason other than pleasure.

Isn't bestiality illegal in some states? I don't think it's particularly cruel to give handjobs to dolphins. Not to the dolphins, anyway.

As for the "zoophilia is not bestiality" excuse, I don't think the law recognizes that. Like the 24-hour backup thing.

Those two facts are incompatiable. In reality all vertebrates (or at the very least mammals) mate for the physiological pleasure gained in the act, not for the sake of perpetuating their species.
