Um, no. It's legal to marry someone of the same sex (not 'be gay') in 6, and legal to have sex with animals (not 'marry an animal') in 13 (not 23); you're kinda mixing up getting married and falling in love there.

I did have a bizarrely similar (to the original poster's) accident about four years ago, in which I slipped over a cookie and somehow twisted my ankle so far that it broke
