On dogs "consenting":
An animal cannot consent. You can make an argument, especially with a lot of male animals, that they're willing, but for the same reason a teenager can't give consent to an adult no matter how willing, neither can an animal. They lack the mental capacity for it, and I would argue on a MUCH more extreme level than a human teenager. Look, I was a teenage boy before. If an adult woman had propositioned me for sex when I was 14 years old, you can be damn sure I was willing. However, I couldn't consent. An animal, at best, has the mental maturity of a toddler, with the physical sexual maturity and often sex drive of a teenager. A human raping an animal is about the equivalent of an adult raping a mentally disabled teenager with the mind of a toddler.
