The only problem I see is with children- who cannot consent- they do not have the capacity to do so. Animals we eat, I don't think having sex with them ought to pose much of a problem, as long as no cruelty is involved- consent is not an issue with animals, imo, considering the way we treat them in our society already. You think slaughter is preferable to an animal over a little bestiality? If so, I must rofl. Who cares what adults get up to? You could care personally, about your own morality, determined by whatever God you have consented to follow, or by your own independent and non-religious moral ideas- but why should any laws regulate the concentual sex of others? Outside of moral strictures- imposed by various religions- I see no reason to regulate what people do. Do we regulate what people can legally eat? We inspect food processing (and IMO we should make sure prostitutes are healthy) but we do not make it illegal to practice coprophagy, for example, nor is it illegal to eat any other food (except for people- [a consent problem, again] and endangered animals). I don't see why sex should be any different.
