It’s fucked up how people here only seem to have an issue with the cow getting artificially inseminated. The bulls can’t consent either. Just like with humans, people either don’t concern themselves with male consent, don’t think sexual abuse of men matters nearly as much as when it happens to women. I don’t really have an opinion on artificial insemination, I just found it fucked that this misandrist double standard is so strong it even extends to animals.

Well I think it’s cisnormative to assume the bull’s identity like that. What’s even worse, nobody even mentiones all the transcows going without gender affirming care and therefore all the male pregnancies as an example of speciest trans-misandrist violence.

    I believe you, and so rather than refuse to hear out their argument (and thus prove them in some way right), I’ve decided to engage with them seriously using leftist analysis. If nothing else, it’s good exercise for My noodle.

  Fortunately, cattle don’t understand English and thus aren’t harmed by verbal misgendering. The only misgendering they have to worry about are the sexual roles forced on them by farmers. Thus, I propose we abolish cattle farming and project no gender or sexual roles onto cows, allowing us to verbally misgender cows without harming them.

Lol, there are several comments on this post specifically talking about castration. Simply highlighting one aspect of the paradigm does not mean you condone the other, nor does it mean people are ignoring it.

Sexual violence against women is spoken more about because it is much more common than with men. One out of five women are victims or rape or rape attempts, comparatively only one out of thirty-one men have experienced the same. The same goes for cattle, as the vast majority of cattle are females.

Simply stating that fact does not mean people do not care about sexual violence towards men, nor would someone who cares about the suffering of animals condone the morality of the practices in the meat industry when it comes to male cows.
