No. I would advocate questioning men and women who agree to exchange semen without a formal certificate.
Usually; that happens through sexual intercourse between men and women.
If a woman or a man had sex with a different specie, there is no penalty.
If a male or a female had sex with the same sex, there is no penalty.
If a man and woman had a sexual intercourse without any legal bound, like marriage, there is a penalty.
Actually; that is a very irresponsible act against the society, and against the child that might result too.

Quote: What you appear to be saying is that you approve of torture for acts which your religion tells you are wrong, but not for anything else. I'm not picking on Islam - this is a distressingly common mindset among religionists.
Doesn't this seem to make a case for torture being part and parcel of religion?

It's more of a set of penalties.
Just like all secular constitutions contain and use to keep the wheel of society turning.
Hypothetical: You have information I require. You refuse to give me the information. As a penalty, I break your fingers one by one. How is this different from torturing you?
