In the event animals are to be killed, for food or safety, I believe it should be done as humanely as possible, with as little fear and awareness of danger/death by the animal as possible, with as little pain for the animal as possible. Sometimes, euthanasia is the proper moral choice for an animal that is only going to suffer until it dies anyway.

As for using an animal for sexual gratification, I don’t believe forced sex is okay either, with humans or animals.

I don’t think any of that is okay.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

I have no problem with keeping pets, I have always had dogs and cats. I have no problem keeping them confined or on a leash (as long as that does not physically harm them), that is for their safety; and prolonging an enjoyable life.

How is bestiality wrong, but killing animals for sport or trophies is considered okay?
