The Netherlands are the quintessential
loony-left nation, so it’s no surprise that when Dutch lawmakers decided to
take a stand on whether or not it should be legal to canoodle a horsey, they
did so on animal-rights
grounds. Presumably if Dobbin figures out how
to say yes to her suitor, it would be okay. The thing that’s a bit unnerving
to me is wondering how, under the constitutional right to sexual autonomy
carved out by SCOTUS in the Lawrence decision, one could ban interspecies
sexual relations on anything other than an animal-rights basis. Over to you,
Stanley Kurtz.
