>>51211984I can do you one better. Human/Slave relationships are as ethical as any Human/Human relationship. Is your slave already within a marriage? Are you having a relationship to produce children with your slave, or otherwise performing an act that doesn't violate the purpose of various body parts? Are you humiliating or otherwise treating your slave in a way that is contrary to the relative standards of the society you find yourself participating in?
1) As long as you aren't taking a garde that is married, stealing it from another owner/partner, you are being ethical.
2) As long as your are either trying to have a child (requires no consent as long as you've respected #1), or utilizing those parts of a body that would otherwise lead to such an outcome in a wholesome way, you're being ethical (sodomizing your garde would be pushing it, and would enter a gray zone in my opinion that walks dangerously close to unethical behavior, seeing as how a slave can't consent and even if the slave finds such an act pleasurable... well, i'm welcome to hear other inputs).
3) As long as you aren't demeaning your garde, such as forcing her to go around ball-gagged or in bondage, or otherwise not treating her as all other garde/pokemon are treated outside of #1 and #2 you're golden and completely ethical (an arguement could be made that doting on her too much, such as giving her human clothes ect, also falls under unethical treatment, considering the kind of damage any deviation from the status quo has on mental health in humans, and presumably intelligent monsters).
