Issues of consent in human-animal sexual relations
==================================================

Abstract
--------

> This essay examines why many people cite consent as the primary
> reason for discomfort regarding human-animal sexual relations. It
> is specifically concerned with why consent is considered
> important in the sexual arena of human-animal relations, but not
> for many other areas including reproduction (for example in cases
> of artificial insemination or sterilisation), choice of living
> arrangements, for which consent is considered important in
> human-human relationships. Zoophilia and bestiality are
> considered with particular reference to Tim Ingold's model of
> trust and domination and Kay Milton's ideas of Egomorphism. The
> essay concludes that the study of reactions to zoophilia is
> useful in better understanding how people relate to their
> environment.
