Look, I don’t disagree with your point necessarily, but you’re not winning over literally anyone in this thread. It’s just not happening.
Nobody ever has been convinced that dairy is rape and meat is murder by some Lemmy user saying “dairy is rape” and following up with “because it is”.
Most obviously, your primary argument is consequentialism, which many people just don’t see as a valid form of ethics. Many people subscribe to deontology instead, and so they don’t see it as rape because they are not obtaining sexual gratification from artificial insemination or drinking milk.

The word you’re looking for is “artificial insemination” and it does not equate to rape.

So putting semen up a vagina without consent isn’t rape?
theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The concept of consent does not apply for livestock. And yes, in the context of artificially inseminating livestock, that is correct.
Genius@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
In what context? Animals? Are you saying a guy sticking his dick in his pet dog is a situation without any consent problems?

So you are saying rape doesn’t exist in a slavery context.

The concept of human rights does not apply for when I shove a boot up your ass after you’re done licking the dairy industry’s.

Disgusting comment, it doesn’t stop being rape because the species are different.

I am sure laws vary by country, but going with laws here…
One is done with a glorified Turkey baster to livestock. The other with your penis to a woman.
Are we seriously comparing women to livestock here? But even AI to a human woman would be sexual assault, not rape.

Both are non-consensual penetrations of animal vaginas. The actors involved need not be the same species, as in bestiality, and the thing used to penetrate need not be a body part. How would you like it if the women loved ones in your life were vaginally penetrated with Turkey basters instead of penises? Makes no difference because the deed is the same: concent is violated and in a sexual (read: vaginal body parts = sexual body parts) manner.
I’m not comparing women to livestock in the slightest, you’re putting words in my mouth. I’m saying that actions of rape DONE TO BOTH women and animals bear exact similarity. There is no difference between artificial insemination without consent of women as for animals, and there is no difference between vaginal intercourse without consent of animals as for women. Both of these instances constitute rape.
And artificial insemination without consent to a women is absolutely rape. It consists of vaginal penetration without consent. That is literally the definition.
