Yes, but if I were a cat I wouldn't lick my own anus and yet cats happily do that - my opinion on what I would or wouldn't like as a cat is not really relevant.

My point is - we are not cats, and cats aren't humans. They deserve good treatment, respect and all the love they can get - but at the end of the day they are not humans and should not be treated as such.
- sillysaurusx 5y agoHow would you clean your anus if you were a cat? Suppose a cat had fingers, and basic language ability. Would you still feel the same way? Suppose we didn't slaughter the other five proto-human species (Neanderthals et al). Would you still feel the same way? The line gets blurrier the more you think it over.
- likeclockwork 5y agoI reject the notion that you can clean anything by licking it.

- Chris2048 5y ago> Suppose a cat had fingers, and basic language ability It would no longer be a cat. That's why "If you (a human) were a cat" is a problem, b/c you need to say what level of human/cat this hybrid creature is imagined to be. It's like that joke: "Behold! The dog with two heads! and two bodies!"
