Concepts like rape don’t exist in the animal kingdom

Did you forget humans are animals? If you don’t like using the word rape to describe sexually violating an animal, there’s another one we’ve come up with… bestiality.

Same for the thing about taking children away

Are you seriously trying to say humans are the only species who should have a right not to be sexually violated or have their children taken from them and killed? Since we know that cows are thinking, feeling, emotional creatures capable of forming strong family bonds… what exactly is it about humans that makes them special in that way?

Humans are special in more than one characteristic. One of them is that humans have consensual intercourse and have a word for and laws against intercouse that isn’t.

Cows don’t have that. Animals in general don’t have that. You wouldn’t say one shark is raping another. Or lions are raping each other. Unless you are really missing the point at least

Bestiality is another term you don’t seem to understand. Artifical insemination does not involve the performance of sexual acts from the human’s point of view.

It’s a human term from a human’s perspective.

You wouldn’t call it Bestiality when a dog humps your leg. the animal’s perspective does not matter here. It should be that way because animals cannot in a meaningful way consent.

I don’t agree with the term sexual violation.

In a perfect way no animal would ever die, but nature is eat or be eaten most of the time. Cows usually are the ones that will be eaten.
