So this type of thing is illegal everywhere else in the country except for Canberra?
What the hell is wrong with the nation's capital? :crazy:
Well that's where all the politicians are, making bestiality illegal would kill their friday nights.
I feel sorry for the poor bastard.
Whoever his "mate" was that took the pic and/or released it needs to realise he's just destroyed a career and possibly a life.
Sick of this attitude. Maybe Monaghan has to realise he destroyed his own career, noone forced him to do what he did, any photos or anything else are just a consequence of what he did in the first place. No dog sex >> no photo >> no humiliation.
Beastiality is the act of having sex with animals, not simulating ie pretending to have sex with animals.
Beastiality is a big deal. Pretending to do something and having a photo taken as wind up for your mate, whilst dumb is not particularily shocking.
Joel Monaghan did this in front of someone else (probably more than 1 person) so you'd have to think that he didn't actually penetrate the dog as that would be decidedly sick.
But to pretend to do something is a rather different matter.
I've asked 5 people at work (non league fans) if posing for a picture pretending to have sex with a dog (but not actually doing it) is shocking.
1 laughed outright and the other 4 shrugged and said "that's no big deal at all"
Like I said, if there was penetration it's way out of line. If it was a joke with the camera angle making it look like something it wasn't then I don't see what is so bad about it. Yes it's stupid, yes the media are going to make out its the end of the World and yes sponsors are going to scream and cry.
But the general public, at least people in the banking industry, don't think it's anything other than a silly drunken gag worthless of any further thought.
We need to stop beating ourselves up and building this up.
Have you seen the photo? He's getting a blowjob from a dog. It's not simulated, his pants are off, the dog is all over him. He put peanut butter on his junk ffs, "simulation" wasn't the aim. Or are you one of those "oral sex isnt really sex" types, in that case you'd get on well with Bill Clinton.
My girlfriend would leave me if i got a blowjob from someone else, she'd laugh at me if I was like "but babe, it wasn't really sex, it was just simulated".
Nothing in that photo is simulated mate. He's getting a real bj from a dog, "a woof woof dog, not just an ugly woman" (as some girl on twitter said).
The game didn't do this. The game has done nothing wrong. The Storm scandal and the Super League war are examples of where the game has sunk to new lows.
This, this is just silly.
Perception is reality. It's not fair, but this scandal humiliates the entire code, I've been embarassed as a footy fan around some of my non footy mates.
