  Ew.

  Why wouldn’t you? Do you ever assume you have consent? Do you steal a dead person’s wallet “because they don’t need it anymore”?

    Because rape is something that happens to a person, not an object.

        A rational one.

      Putting aside the discussion about bodies and objects, the primary concern is consent - which also applies to objects anyway. Would you steal a dead person’s wallet “because they don’t need it anymore”?

        Can you rape a wallet?

  Dead people can’t consent

    Neither can shoes.

      Neither can couches.

      A dead person isn’t equal to a shoe. As humans we show more respect to our dead than old shoes.

        I’m sure dead people don’t mind.

        You said dead people can’t consent. I said neither can shoes. Tell me the bit where I am wrong?

        You have now added something about importance, on which I never commented.

    Objects can’t consent at all and they never could, permission from an object to act on it sounds exactly like why the right think the left has gone crazy.

      What do you mean never? When they were alive they could consent. Why does that change when they die? Just because someone is incapacitated through death, doesn’t give us the right to rape them. When consent is not given it is presumed you don’t have it.

        When alive, the body was a person. They are not incapacitated through death, they dead. Gone. The person ceases to be and only the object and memories remain.

      And calling people objects is why the right is crazy.

      If a person drowns and has no heartbeat, is it okay for you to have a quickie with them before the paramedics arrive to save him? Clinically they’re dead, so… by your logic, they’re an object, and never had the ability to consent in the first place, so quickly fucking them up the arse should be a-okay, right?

      Or is there like a timer you have for when a person goes from a person to an object, which then retroactively never had personhood anyway? Is it just time, or is it temperature, or as soon as the smell sets in? Some people have been clinically dead for half an hour in cold water before being resuscitated, the cold helping protect from brain damage. And some people smell like dead bodies while alive.

      I’m just curious as to your personal criteria.

        The object never has agency. The person does. This edge case is a fine one, but only suggests that the person is dormant, not gone, and can be returned to life. If a body is in a morgue for a week, that ain’t going to be a possibility.
