Consensual Cannibalism Should be Legal

[ALifeWastedOnRot]

Obviously murder should still be illegal, and killing someone to eat them would constitute murder.

But if I agree that one is free to eat my body after my death, and one agrees to eat my body, there is no reason that should be illegal.

In fact, with full consent, it should be fully legal for one to allow someone else to euthanize and eat them. If I am entitled to my own body, I should be allowed to contract it out for any purpose whatsoever.

In the words of toilets: "my body, my choice!"

necrophilia seems more reasonable

 

[sk.feelsdevil]

Your issue should be with abrahamic traditions. This whole "do not destroy the body" came from them.

It really does feel like every arbitrary rule and societal issue can be traced back to Abrahamic doctrine, very interesting.

true, but I think Kuru might have been endemic, since to my knowledge it's never been found outside of papua
(but I guess there's not enough global cannibals to test that)

It is, there are no laws against cannibalism in the UK and US provided that you don't kill anyone and you had consent from the person who you're eating before they died (for example if they stated they were ok with being cannibalised in their will.

Yeah obviously that, and Prions, but I mean like the regular flesh

Is discretion of a corpse not illegal? If so UK is awesome.

You'd have to commit suicide/let someone kill you(ie: suicide) to be eaten, so I think this debate simply boils down to whether suicide is immoral or not. why do you think suicide is not immoral? what is your system of ethics?

Not true, you could have an agreement that if you were to die of natural or accidental causes, then you can be eaten, much like life insurance.

I actually think suicide is extremely moral. I am a Utilitarian and a Hedonist.

yeah I didn't think of that, in that case I don't think there'd be any problem morally, pretty weird but not immoral

how can you justify suicide as a utilitarian? it often causes much more pain and makes it worse for everyone else

 

[Defetivecuckachu]

Finally, "eat my ass" has real meaning.

If the individual wants to die, the harm that they experience by continuing to live is far greater than the sadness of others.

Imagine a suicidal quadriplegic whos bedbound. EVeryday is him suffering in immense emotional pain. What's worse, him being forced to live, or his family sad they can't keep the rotten corpose alive longer?

You could argue anything is ok if it’s “consensual”, necrophilia can be consensual (before the person dies they consent), mother son incest can be consensual. There’s still grounds of immorality outside of the consent aspect, and there’s usually just a general disdain and aversion to such acts that are hardwired in us. Only barbaric savages eat human meat, and almost any civilization in history has condemned cannibalism

Exactly. Only barbaric socialist Statists consider something consenual to be immoral.

There’s still grounds of immorality outside of the consent aspect, and there’s usually just a general disdain and aversion to such acts that are hardwired in us. Only barbaric savages eat human meat, and almost any civilization in history has condemned cannibalism

By definition people who define consensual acts as immoral are not civilized, they may be tecnhologically advanced, but they're still underdeveloped moral savages.

Your own logic could be used to argue Necrophilia and Fetishes are immoral.

That is what I’m arguing, I’m saying consent doesn’t justify the morality of something. Some acts will be disgustingly regardless, and imo that includes cannibalism.

 

[ALifeWastedOnRot]

It does, I'm literally saying nothing wrong with necrophilia or cannibalism

. Some acts will be disgustingly regardless, and imo that includes cannibalism.

Then I will argue that pizza eaters and pizza makers are immoral and evil, and people who don't use Bidets are evil. Pizza is insanely disgusting and I've called people who eat it disgusting but I haven't associated that with immorality. However I would like to use this line of arguments because I do think pizza shops are gross for unconsenually clouding my nostrils with their filth.

Yeah having sex with a rotting corpse full of maggots is totally normal

Except that line of reasoning doesn’t hold up, cannibalism is just objectively wrong, our laws tell us this, and most religions tell us this. Your parents don’t have to tell you eating others is wrong. It is instinctually for humans to have certain morals, and those morals must be followed. Pizza eating i: justified because it comes from animals society has deemed ok to eat. Society has never deemed cannibalism ok (except in small groups like religious cults or remote tribes). You can think however you want, but the masses will say cannibalism is wrong, and always will

 

[jungfraucel]

just like this german guy who ate some dude's dick after putting up an ad online https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armin_Meiwes
the cannibal of Rothenburg

 

[ALifeWastedOnRot]

Yes, because having sex with a rotting corpse is totally the same thing as the Holocaust.

Except that line of reasoning doesn’t hold up, cannibalism is just objectively wrong,

There’s objectively nothing wrong with it

our laws tell us this, and most religions tell us this.

Our laws and religions are objectively wrong and false

Your parents don’t have to tell you eating others is wrong. It is instinctually for humans to have certain morals

Humans instinctually turn to racism and tribalism, by that logic those are ok

, and those morals must be followed. Pizza eating i: justified because it comes from animals society has deemed ok to eat.

That just proves society is messed up.

Society has never deemed cannibalism ok (except in small groups like religious cults or remote tribes). You can think however you want, but the masses will say cannibalism is wrong, and always will

And that’s exactly why the Masses need to be conditioned different
