The USA should follow Mexico's example. God, we're fighting over a ban in california (declared unconstitutional for now! finally! Don't mess this up, supreme court!!!!) and our neighbors have already completely legalized it. The world is evolving waaay to slowly for my tastes. This is a civil rights issue that I feel should not even be an issue. It really pisses me off when I hear protesters arguing that a human being should not have equal rights under the law because of his/her sexual orientation.

I'm actually surprised Mexico allowed this 🤣 Since I've been in Mexico and my family is religious(they keep things like these hushed up), I have an understanding that homosexuality isn't really well liked in Mexico but wowzers this is good news. Dang it America, even Mexico legalized it!

Good for them ~
I live in Canada, where gay marriage has been legal for quite some time.
It still confuses me that developed nations still have places where it is illegal coughUSAcough

...Except that animals aren't human beings, so that's totally irrelevant to this particular issue. I suggest bothering the otaku who are marrying their Love Plus girlfriends.

Good for Mexico. It's a positive step.

Honestly, I don't think there would be a huge social problem with it in Japan either. In fact, I'm absolutely positive it'll happen eventually. I think that last year there was some ruling where same-sex marriages in other countries now have to be recognized by the Japanese government, so it's sort of in motion, it's just not that huge a priority. Japan is so politically convoluted, more so than most first world countries, including the US, that there are just a ton of other issues and platforms for parties to argue over first. Then again, we also don't have a religious right that's as emphatically bonkers in quite the same way (we can talk about textbook revisions and Mishima Yukio types another day).

Well, in USA, bestiality isn't illegal, so I'm not sure if marriage between human and animal is illegal / legal, People probably just haven't had "enough balls" to try it, Its one of those things that people just try to ignore, rather than speak out against it.

Their toes are long...

Crenshinibon, I think the problem is people being unable to love who / what they love... rather than whether they're loving humans... Restriction like that is like... uhh... Not as restricted-straight-only-marriages.

Still bestiality is weird though 😀 haha not my thing

ORLY?

Perhaps there might be a few states which don't say anything about it, but my state certainly does. However, it likely wouldn't be enforced as it falls into a similar realm of privacy as non-missionary sex and sodomy: Protected by rights to privacy. However, marriage isn't really... private, and the state definitely has the right to regulate it, so... Don't go marrying your adorable kittens just yet. Besides, minors can't enter into legally binding contracts anyway.

Edit: In case it's unclear, I'm saying that most pets are below the age of 18.

Then it won't be long til pedophile and sadist are ligal. after all, they're just different sexual oriantation, right? and then downtown can be filled with weird shops with blooming human trafficing industry!

Pedophiles aren't illegal, involving children in sexual affairs is illegal.
Sadists aren't illegal, raping/assaulting people is illegal.
Homosexuals aren't even inclined to harm others with their sexual preferences (any more than heterosexuals), so why would homosexuality be illegal?

Permission is sort of the key bit of those, for those of you who like to take the absurd angle and argue about extremes like pedophilia.

Children can't really make that sort of decision for themselves well- that's why laws are in place that prevents them from entering legally binding contracts without parental permission. Assault and rape are both obviously not something that one receives consent for. Animals, similarly, cannot consent.

Other human beings of proper age can. That's about the size of it. Anything else isn't really mutual, so marriage isn't something you should be taking into account.

And wotonito, I'm perfectly fine with people loving whatever they want. It's the legal contracts without consent or proper eligibility that I have an issue with. I do think it's a little dubious to become infatuated with something that cannot reciprocate, though. That's not a good road for mental and emotional stability, but then again, it's not really my business.
