If slavery were legal, it would still be morally abhorrent and a violation of basic human rights. Consent and respect for autonomy are fundamental in any ethical interaction.
It needs to be clarified what exactly you mean by legal. Let us assume a corner case.
In BDSM, individuals engage in consensual role-play that may involve power dynamics, but this is based on mutual agreement, trust, and respect for boundaries. Partners can choose to explore aspects of their dynamic beyond role-play, integrating elements of dominance, submission, and other practices into their relationship with ongoing consent and clear communication. It's important to distinguish between consensual adult activities, where rights are upheld and choices respected, and slavery, which involves coercion and denies basic rights and freedoms.
