Apparently it arguably already is, at least in some cases, but nevertheless it's really, really rare for anyone to actually do it, as evidenced by the fact that I had to look it up. This confirms my intuition that the law wouldn't make much of a difference, because there'd still be a ton of social pressure against it.
As such, I don't see any reason not to make it more definitively legal, but neither do I see a strong object-level need to legalise it asap. Which means the meta principle of "don't outlaw behaviours just because they're Weird, only do it if they harm others" gets to make the decision.
