Eat ethically” and “Animal liberation now.” singing he tweeted a journal article entitled “Zoophilia is morally permissible,” which he called “thought-provoking” and said it “challenges one of society’s strongest taboos.”

The magazine makes a moral case for sex with animals, arguing that it is “morally permissible” and that there is “nothing wrong” with sex with animals. The magazine was written under the pseudonym Fira Bensto in the “Journal of Controversial Ideas” and was published in October.

“As one of our most deeply rooted social taboos, zoophilia is considered wrong, and having sex with animals is illegal in many countries,” he said. article reads. “In this article, I would like to go against this de facto consensus and argue that zoophilia is morally permissible.”
“Sex with animals is a powerful social taboo that exposes its practitioners to the utmost outrage and stigma,” the article continues. “Zoophilia is one of the few sexual orientations (along with, for example, necrophilia or pedophilia) that remains out of bounds and has remained on the sidelines of the sexual liberation movement in the last fifty years. I would like to argue that this is a mistake. In fact, there is nothing wrong with having sex with animals: it is not an inherently problematic sexual practice.”

“The year of the first Earth Day, 1970, was the year I stopped eating meat. I didn’t do it to save the Earth, but because I realized that there is no ethical justification for treating animals like machines for turning feed into meat, milk and eggs,” he wrote in the Times.
Singer did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.
