Not really, the point is that you and other people mentioned that the reason a man can't marry a horse is because a horse can't consent. But requiring that a horse consent to marriage is ridiculous when you contrast it against the myriad of other things we do to horses without their consent that tend to be more horrible than marrying a horse (but lets be real, the real issue is fucking a horse). Have you ever ridden a horse before? Did it consent to you riding it?
Marriage isn't something you do to someone. You do it with someone.
