"I am not a vegetarian because I love animals; I am a vegetarian because I hate plants!"

A Whitney Brown

Raping a fellow human is a violent act and, indeed, illegal in most societies. I intuitively feel, and so most cultures reflect, that killing and eating humans is an even more detrimental activity for the harmonious life in society. At least if they belong to your tribe.

However, killing and eating animals is not only unremarkable but also encouraged by most. Interestingly having sex with animals tends to be illegal and generally frowned upon.
