Rebuttal?

I'm kind of curious how the top hat and monocle would be secured to the dolphin.

...could the female dolphins wear those top hats with the little veils attached? I know it's stuffy and Victorian, but I think they're awesome.

  1. Ever since I was informed that dolphins are pretty violent rapists, I can't forget, no matter how much I try. So, violent rapist dolphins in top hats and monocles would be PRETTY DAMN CREEPY.

  2. I mean, if we're going to apply human traits to nonhumans, then a lot of animals are technically rapists (and violent ones at that).

    I'm thinking your reaction is at least partly because culturally we view dolphins as cute and lovable, so there's a certain sense of betrayal when you find out about the forceful and non-consensual mating.

    I'm still marveling that I actually just wrote that sentence. Hm.
