Actually, my answers were not meant to be taken seriously. I was actually trying to have a bit of fun with the subject but it seems you take this way too seriously. I'm sorry if you didn't enjoy my joking responses, but there's no need to mention my rectal tract, unless of course you are a doctor of proctology.
Methinks thou needs to get a sense of humor and stop taking what you read on the internet so literally.
Listen, I can take a joke as well as anyone. I found this particular comment disgustingly offensive, because of the negative stereotyping involved.
( a ) I was born in Mexico,
( b ) In my extensive experience all over that Country, I never perceived bestiality to be ignored, let alone tolerated or encouraged.
( c ) The odds are that there are at least as many bestiality enthusiasts in the U.S. as there are in Mexico (remember, Mexico has about a third of the population of the U.S., and it is also a more socially conservative Country), and
( d ) It shocked me, because I had assumed that participants in an Atheist forum would be among the least likely to harbor these kinds of xenophobic attitudes. How would you feel if somebody in this forum made a joke about "how greedy Jews are", or "how lazy are the Blacks" ? Are those also permissible "jokes"?
Perhaps I shouldn't have lashed out quite that hard, but surely you can see my point.

You shouldn't take offense to anything said on this forum matey. I used to get miffed when I started out, but at the end of the day people can say whatever they like on here. Sure you can respond if you disagree, but don't take it personally.

The reason there are so many bestiality enthusiast in the U.S. is that they all came from the place Mexicans are great at leaving.

We aren't actually xenophobic. But I'd think a joke about the greedy jews is funny, and lazy blacks the same.
These are infact permissible jokes. You don't find them funny... that's fine. My grandmother doesn't find Dilbert funny. This is a matter of taste, nothing more.

I've cracked almost every offensive joke under the sun. Yet I've been among the first people to rally for the rights of the minorities, individual rights.
Also, the "in Mexico" crack is excellent -- it is an economically backward, failed state with a culture that values its little hovels and gang affiliations more than they value having a decent quality of life.
From the perspective of a state, fuck 'em. And make jokes at it's expense.
Sometimes we mock failures for being.

Listen, I get it. But it wasn't a generalization at all about Mexico or Mexican people, just a joke about the perceived notion about bestiality as entertainment there. Honestly, if someone else made stereotyping statements about Jews or blacks, my first impression would be that it was a joke. If they did it again, then I would think maybe they were racist.
I apologize if you took my poor attempt at comedy as xenophobic, but I suggest next time you see something offensive, engaging in a conversation about it to find out more about the person's true beliefs before telling them to stick something in their rectum. Personally, I think racial stereotypes are great fodder for comedy and nothing more.

I was serious. I know that after I'm dead, I'm dead. But still I don't like the idea that after I die, my body to be fucked by 10 people (neither by less, nor by more). And perhaps I'm not the only one who wouldn't like to know that such a thing would happen to his body right after he dies.
I don't see what you have seen ignorant about what I said.

I'll give mechanical answers to that:
1.Avoid, has bad consequences.
2.Avoid, impossible to confirm consent.
3.Okay but disgusting, it's a dead body it can't give consent, but it's also not a living being so it would be same as illegalizing sex with a inanimate object.
4.Avoid, Too immature to understand the concept and consequences
5.Okay, Sexuality doesn't pick genders, it picks Chemical reward, the Breeding becomes non-issues to homosexual in the modern age.
6.Okay, Sexuality doesn't pick genders, it picks Chemical reward, the Breeding becomes non-issues to homosexual in the modern age.
7.Okay, Consentual only, requires weekly exams for STD tests.
Attempting to impose question number 8
8. What do you think about Asexuals?
