What's your view on fur

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · May 01, 2015, 03:31:09 AM

idk, I don't really like the idea of it - but I'm a meat eater so in the end I don't give a fuck.

Mat Cauthon · May 01, 2015, 03:37:31 AM

It depends, if the animal was bred for producing the fur, fine.
If it wasn't, I'd like to skin whoever made that and see what they think about it then.

gats · May 01, 2015, 03:44:55 AM

lol please tell me you don't wear that outside?

Sylvie · May 01, 2015, 03:46:52 AM

I don't have an issue with it if I don't have to kill the animal, or it's not fur from an endangered species.
I'll happily wear it because it's soft.

I don't have a need for it. If I wanted fur it'd be for decoration and I'd use fake fur.

Vegan.
Why not vegetarian?

Because I don't think we have the right to take anything from animals.

Nope.

what if it gets proven that certain plants can feel pain?

when people talk about plants, they usually refer only to green stuff
legumes and cereal grains are plants, sure

fruits aren't plants, though
they come from plants

but whatever, the notion that plants feel pain is just stupid
what would i do if everything that i eat feels pain on some level when they're harvested?

i don't know, i guess i would fucking starve to death

Girl of Mystery · May 01, 2015, 07:38:57 AM

As long as it's not endangered I really couldn't give a shit.
I personally wouldn't wear it though because I'm not bent.

Ásgeirr · May 01, 2015, 07:39:39 AM

Looks terrible in most cases.

But you take it in the ass hardcore so it would fit you

extracting the milk after pregnancy in a way that isn't abusive, would you tolerate that?

Well, no, because like you said, you're basically stealing it for your own purposes. You didn't say that outright, but you implied it with your assertion that it's nonconsensual, which is a good word to use. If you were saving someone's life (somehow) with a cow's milk, then that would be justifiable, but only in niche circumstances like that. Cow's milk is meant for a cow's young. That doesn't mean it's wrong to imbibe it--it's wrong to extract it in the first place.

Aether · May 01, 2015, 08:12:28 AM

Well it can feel really nice, but I don't have any desire to hunt for it or have it on my clothes, although I did have a foxtail key chain. I mean it's not like it's needed anymore.

It sucks for the animals that have to die for it, but hell, us humans can't even stop killing ourselves, I'm not gonna try to object some sort of 'save the animals ethics' onto people.

Some places are inhumane af about it though, like fur farms in china skinning tanuki's live or w/e.

Also, I think it's ironic I say it's inhumane just after saying humans can't stop killing themselves. . .

As long as it's sustainable and not endangering a species it's not a problem.
