What two consenting sentient beings do is for them to decide as long as it doesn't harm those around them.

I don't know how I would feel about falling in love with something that wasn't human. I guess if an alien race landed and they were just like us, but all their females had devil tails, I guess I would roll with it. I guess the only time you see ugly aliens is when they are either trying to kill us, or they are insect looking. I think I could marry a cat girl if they are real, lol.

Don't see why not; real people don't have to deal with this issue (yet), so why worry?

Okay, but since this isn't an issue moral guardians feel the need tog et all indignant about, I don't see any reason to introduce any controversy. They're human for a given value of human.xPixelatedx said:While this is a topic about something currently only fictitious, it is still an idea. Ideas are important, they shape things, like the way this might shape the future of storytelling. That gives it relevance, doesn't it? At the very least, it certainly raises questions.
What about highly intelligent alien species? They are technically animals.Verlander said:With a human it's statutory rape, as animals cannot give consent. End of story really.
