When you first hear their hypothesis, it doesn’t seem so far fetched. We were always told as kids and sometimes even now as young adults to “listen to you heart.” Countless songs, books, and stories convey this message, though I don’t think they meant it as literally as the Sharpios’s.

Right? No. If the Shapiro hypothesis were true, the man would be doing no wrong as long has he is following his heart. This man having sexual intercourse with a dead chicken every week could easily spread diseases, potentially putting the man and whomever he encounters sexually at risk. Not to mention the chicken did not give consent, and you shouldn’t have sex with anyone unless it is consensual. Any sexual acts towards animals is a crime. But that isn’t the reason it is unjust. It is unjust; therefore there is a law against it. But, If the Sharpio hypothesis were to be true then if the heart desires something, it must be right. His heart desired to have sexual intercourse with the chicken, therefore the man is right. That statement is false. So, we shouldn’t believe the Shapiro Hypothesis. “Julie and Mark, who are sister and brother, are traveling together in France. They are both on summer vacation from college.
