How is a person, pretending to be a species that can’t consent, less suspect than a person pretending to be a child that can’t consent?
I see the bear roleplay as “weird but not wrong”, but I have no experience with speciesplay. I do however have experience of being asked to do ageplay but not having that in myself.
Not trying to struggle session or anything, just trying to philosophize. I suppose a guiding value here is “the mind is prevalent over the body”.
Two different things.
One is titillating content for consumption where sex with an animal is made “ok” by creating a scenario in which it’s not just an animal but actually a 3000 year old vampire, you get me.
The other is not fiction at all, it is two adult human beings in a private bedroom doing consenting roleplay with one another.
I generally agree with others pointing out that the perspective on this changes because bears could rip a person in half. If you substituted it for a dog though with no other changes…
