False equivalence aside.

So, genuine question.

Theoretically, if it was possible to obtain animal consent, you'd be cool with it ?

In this hypothetical scenario I'd still think it weird but not morally objectionable

We're gonna have to figure this one out when we encounter aliens.

Personally, i'm open to the idea of human-alien relationships. I don't think most animals rise to the level of intelligence necessary to make a good romantic partner (and yes, that includes a good chunk of humans ๐Ÿ˜), but if there were a nonhuman animal I could play chess and discuss literature with, I guess I'd consider fucking it.
