Scat fetish typically involves grown adults.

Having sex with a doll also only involves grown adults.

You justified the ban with it being disgusting so I repeat the question: Why not ban scat fetish then as well?

Adults doing weird things with other adults is fine with me.

Adults having sex with something intended to represent a child? Hell no. Selling these things is the thin end of the wedge in my view.

Adult men having sex with adult women is fine with me.

Adult men having sex with another men? Hell no. Engaging in that is the thin end of the wedge in my view.

Why is this not a valid reason to ban homosexuality but it's good enough to ban sex dolls?

I have far better things to do with my time than explain why depicting sex with children is a bad thing to a stranger on the Internet.

You seem to have plenty of time for moral grandstanding, but the second someone asks you to make a coherent argument, time's suddenly up.

"Disgusting, you're probably a pedophile, I don't care that there's no victim, it's obvious so I don't need to explain it" has been your entire contribution so far. If you don't care about trying to change anyone's mind, then I don't know what you're even doing here besides just making noise.
