We can't, without first granting it to whales, chimps, corvids, and the rest. But we have come very close. The Law is unutterably fucking broken.
In the Republic of Ireland, an artificially wealthy, highly educated, treaty-enmeshed constitutional democracy, the following statement was enshrined:
"4. Marriage may be contracted in accordance with law by two persons without distinction as to their sex."
It doesn't say Natural Persons. My Limited Company has personality but no distinguishable sex.
Thankfully there's the "in accordance with law" phrase so we can sleep ok.
We humans are sleep-walking into ancient nightmares made real through our own curiosity.
What a time to be alive.
Thankfully, there's Mathematics. I made a blackboard today.
