PEOPLE YAKETY-YAK A STREAK AND WASTE YOUR TIME OF DAY...

Well, I see New York magazine interviewed a guy who fucks horses. I like to think the whole thing was designed as a practical joke on Rod Dreher, known for his eruptions over such evanescent prurientia as 2 Girls 1 Cup (remember that?); if so, mission accomplished!
I’m not linking to it, because it is sick, sick stuff. It’s incredibly graphic, and I had decided not to write about it. But...
Yeah, we can guess, preacher man. Or can we? Let's see where Brother Rod takes it:
What’s significant is not that this deranged behavior happens. It has no doubt always been with us. What’s significant is that this interview appears in a mainstream magazine... 
New York has won a slew of National Magazine Awards, including being named 2013′s Magazine of the Year. This isn’t an Al Goldstein rag. This isn’t even the Village Voice.
Yeah, the Voice published Roy Edroso and homos, but New York is a recent award winner! Its pages are glossy! Also, Robert George agrees with Dreher, and don't you pointy-heads discount George because he's writing on Facebook -- discount him because he's a weirdo who favors the anatomical-doll school of Adam and Stevery ("In coitus, but not in other forms of sexual contact, a man and a woman’s bodies coordinate by way of their sexual organs... they are biologically united, and do not merely rub together..."). George shares Dreher's disgust, and demands action:
I mention it, reluctantly, only to show that anyone who thought we had already reached the bottom of the slippery slope is mistaken. The descent into Gomorrah continues. I believe it can be reversed, but not simply stopped. “This far and no farther,” is not an option.
Hear hear, says Dreher, because we wouldn't have horse-fucking in glossy magazines if you non-reproductive bit-rubbers hadn't gotten the slope all slippery:
Ideas have consequences. If your idea is that all consensual sex is good, or at least beyond judgment, and that sexual desire is its own justification, then you have met your consequence in New York‘s anonymous zoophile.
 "Dogs and cats, living together" was not a JOKE, people! Soon everybody, human and animal, will be friggin' and frugin' and sticking their bits wherever they can, unless we reverse the flow! THANKS OBAMA!

UPDATE: Isn't it obvious now that the famous pervert Woody Allen was trying to normalize this kind of behavior?


UPDATE 2. A winning comment right out of the gate by Glock H. Palin, Esq.: "Sure, rural people do it, and have been doing it since before this was a country, but those godless heather urban types write about it. Is there no end to their depravity?!" Oh Glock, you don't know the half of it -- one of Dreher's commenters actually cites Ike Snopes and the cow from The Hamlet ("the whole passage pretty much turned me off Faulkner forever. Yes, I know Faulkner is considered 'literature'...") and betrays no awareness that farmers fucking livestock was not invented by Faulkner, but is part of the great American agrarian tradition.

    There goes Dreher, misunderstanding the fuck out of consent again- or maybe he believes Equines would assent to a fucking by one of his salt of the earth types.
    You just know a horsefucker has to belong to an MRA. And he probably says to himself "She was asking for it. I could tell by the way she slipped out of her bridle."

    I realize that this post is not meant to be addressed seriously, and I should be telling coarse and lowbrow jokes here, but can I make one serious remark? Pretty please?

    Okay, so the single biggest gap that guys like Dreher have to cross is that there is a difference between "Consensual sex between willing partners is acceptable" and "People should cram their willies into every willing hole they see." Aside from a few contrarians in comment sections, I've known very few liberals/feminists/LGBT rights activitists who favor this sort of hyperactive hedonism as an innate good.

    These guys keep trying to turn sex into this dichotomous thing - either it's for procreation (as God intended) or it's like a fun water slide. You know what? It's both and it's neither and it's more. It's about bonding, and believe it or not queers and people who've had recreative sex can bond, too. The sooner these guys drop that ridiculous medieval madonna/whore complex, the sooner we can have a legit adult discussion about sexuality, society, and the greater human condition.

    Okay, now back to the animal fucking jokes. I've got one - two English gentlemen are talking. One says, "Did you hear? Chauncey was caught making love to a sheep." To which the other replies...eh, you've all heard this one.

    1. A horse is a dumb animal (although I suspect there are some out there smarter than Rod Dreher).
    2. By definition, a dumb animal is incapable of giving consent to sex with a human. Such sex is therefore always non-consensual.
    3. Dreher's point as set forth above therefore makes absolutely no sense at all.
    4. My question: why do reactionaries always make the leap from sex between consenting adults humans to bestiality and pedophilia? Basic inability to understand? Propaganda ploy? The fact that they really want to commit the latter two acts themselves and they're projecting like mad?

    But Dreher doesn't want to hear about your "consents."

    (And by the way, if the only thing you have to stand on to condemn Captain Equus here is that his girlfriend can’t meaningfully consent, then, well, you are ridiculous.)
    Dreher isn't quite able to figure out that nobody's defending or promoting sex with horses here, except for one unfortunate soul. No horses are suing for the right to marry or join the military. Horses aren't protesting horse-bashing. Horses, in fact, are 100% mute on the whole concept of horse sexual rights.

And Dreher is NOT part of the problem, because he is only... writing in a magazine to... admit that zoophilia exists... but alongside the admission... he's appending a "THIS IS GROSS!" thought bubble... so... problem solved?

    Have fun in Hell, first magazine and everyone who read it. Don't come crying to Dreher when you want a glass of water, because even if he wanted to help you, the house rules won't let him.

    "NOVEMBER 22--A Wisconsin man who argued that he could not be prosecuted
    for having sex with a deer because the animal was dead at the time, was
    dealt a legal setback today when a judge rejected a motion seeking
    dismissal of a criminal charge against him. As a result of Circuit Court
    Judge Michael Lucci's ruling, defendant Bryan James Hathaway, 20, will
    have to stand trial for his alleged assault last month of the deer
    carcass. In his ruling (a copy of which you'll find below), Lucci denied
    a November 7 motion
    filed by Hathaway's lawyer, Fredric Anderson, which argued that the
    deer ceased being an animal upon its death (Hathaway, pictured at right,
    allegedly found the carcass in a roadside ditch). Anderson contended
    that a charge of sexual gratification with an animal could not be
    sustained because 'the term 'animal' refers to a living organism, not a
    carcass.' Lucci, however, noted that 'most people understand that an
    animal does not necessarily cease being or qualifying as an animal or
    even being referred to as an animal once it's dead.' He added that the
    'primary focus' of Wisconsin's criminal statute dealing with crimes
    against sexual morality is on 'human behavior and on protecting sexual
    morality in the community, and not necessarily on animal protection.'

"it's right there in the Bible!"... Of course, as others have pointed out, that the authors of the law code found it necessary to ever bring up these sins means they were not unacquainted with them, or they wouldn't be a problem...and having read Rod for some time, I am still unclear as to if is his desire for the Biblical capital punishment to be imposed on bestialists, or gay guys like me..

    Huh. Cloven hooves and a lion tail. A friend of mine wrote a novel in which the characters find a sort of goat with a horn and long tail. It takes them a minute to figure out it is probably a unicorn and that the legends have gone off course. I guess she researched her stuff! (And what the hell, I've gone this far, so I'll throw her a plug: It is called The Unmapped Lands, by Theresa Couchman, and it is about $4 on the amazons.)

  115. The first time I remember seeing an erect horse penis was at Sea World about 20-odd years ago, when Anheuser Busch owned the park and kept a team of Clydesdales there. My friend and I had gone up to the barn, where all but one of the horses, Prince, were out. So we started petting the horse's nose through the bars of his stall door, and as we did so, we started to realize that Prince was getting excited. As neither of us had actually seen an erect stallion penis (we'd mostly been around geldings), we just stood there, fascinated. Suddenly, we realized what "hung like a horse" *really* meant.

    And then we heard a family coming up the walk, with at least two little kids. We had a moment of panic, since we weren't sure if we could get out of there in time without being seen, and let's face it, there's not a lot of explaining two young women can do when they are alone in a barn with a horse with a (huge!) erection. Fortunately, Prince took care of things for us and we sort of slunk out the side exit before the family reached the barn.

    All that is to say, I wonder if Mr. Boeing Engineer was also unfamiliar with stallions and their equipment.

  121. The sooner these guys drop that ridiculous medieval madonna/whore complex, the sooner we can have a legit adult discussion about sexuality, society, and the greater human condition.

    No. We can't. Not with them. Their hangups extend waaaaay beyond the Madonna/whore thing. There are levels of repression and depravity going on that Freud would have needed several lifetimes to document.

    But most of all, its that they really have no concept of what consent means. As Dreher illustrates with mile-wide sky-writing here, "consent" is a slippery thing that can be as meaningless as absence of struggle--or even struggle that's just not effective. That's why women who get raped must secretly enjoy it, why women who wear "provocative" clothing were asking for it, why women who get too drunk deserve what happens, and (most horrifically) why all pregnancies must be carried to term.

    I read the interview, and I thought it was interesting, and what's more, I thought the guy sounded reasonable. I will readily admit that there is a non-trivial chance that he's actually massively self-delusional, but I wouldn't take it as a foregone conclusion. But EVEN IF I DID, I have to say, given that almost all of us (and that "almost" qualifier may well be unnecessary) are complicit in staggering cruelty to animals on an industrial scale, it seems a bit rich of us to be condemning this guy in particular, and I have to think that we do it mainly because the cruelty that WE'RE involved in doesn't make us instinctively go "ew, gross."

  155. Because they are stuck on a fairly throw-away argument in the equal marriage debate that "two people who love each other" shouldn't be denied the right to marry, that marriage is defined by love. This has put the right wing in such a rage that some phrase attempting to reject the logic of this rather banal point appears, like a spittle flecked piece of gravel, in almost every right wing attack on gay marriage or modern marriage. "Oh if love is what matters why can't I marry my dog! Huh! Huh! betcha never thought of that!"


    They will go a thousand miles to think of things that a person might love--any object or fetish or food or animal--because it keeps them from asking themselves why they are so determined to defend a form of marriage (traditional, sclerotic, arranged, miserable, sexless, joyless, childless, child-ridden) that otherwise has no excuse.


    They sense that the rebuttal to "Adam and Steve lived together for 30 years and would like their love to be solemnized in a marriage" is probably not "Oh yeah? Well my grandparents hated the fuck out of each other for 30 years but you didn't see them running off and having a happier life with someone they really loved. Nosiree bob they did not. They hated each other and they stuck it out. They was traditional like that."

    One of the horrifying things I learned as an equine owner is you periodically have to wash their dicks. They develop a crust of smegs that has to be removed, or they can develop an infection and die.
    Back when we had a farrier, he said he always let the ladies do it. but I figured after all those years of practice on myself I'd be a natural.
    A mule dick is fearsome. One of mine has a thing on the end of his pecker that looks like it was flattened in a hydraulic press. Unlike humans, their dick starts to shrink when you start to soap them.

    The unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and she lived all alone. She was very old, though she did not know it, and she was no longer the careless color of sea foam, but rather the color of snow falling on a moonlit night. But her eyes were still clear and unwearied, and she still moved like a shadow on the sea.

    She did not look anything like a horned horse, as unicorns are often pictured, being smaller and cloven-hoofed, and possessing that oldest, wildest grace that horses have never had, that deer have only in a shy, thin imitation and goats in dancing mockery. Her neck was long and slender, making her head seem smaller than it was, and the mane that fell almost to the middle of her back was as soft as dandelion fluff and as fine as cirrus. She had pointed ears and thin legs, with feathers of white hair at the ankles; and the long horn above her eyes shone and shivered with its own seashell light even in the deepest midnight. She had killed dragons with it, and healed a king whose poisoned wound would not close, and knocked down ripe chestnuts for bear cubs.

    A guy wants to join a tribe out in the wilderness that has a reputation of being really tough. The headman tells him, "You have to do 3 things if you want to join us: first, drink a pint of raw vodka; then go out in the woods and kill a bear; then come back and make love to the ugliest girl in the village." OK, the guy says. He swigs down the vodka and goes off to the woods. A couple of hours later he comes back, bleeding and covered with scratches from head to toe, staggers up to the headman, and yells, "OK, I did it! Now where's this woman I have to kill?"
