Monster_95 0 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Where the hell did she say it was to be funny? Okay, so you're defending leather? "give the credit" to whoever the person is. No i'm not defending leather but no matter what you do, not every1 is gonna stop eating meat and leather is just using the skin from the animal for meat. But fur is killing the animal only for the fur. Both completely dif but I just love animals too much to eat aswell but I don't care if other people eat meat but i care if trhey wear fur Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesmu 0 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Well I'm a vegan and don't wear leather or fur and I will be disappointed if it is real but less because of her actually wearing the fur than because of her response. I can look the other way when she wears fur or leather because I live in a world where almost everyone I know wears leather and eats meat and as others have said fur is really no different. The meat dress I could live with because it was an arresting image and opened up a lot of interesting conversations for me with meat eaters who funnily enough seemed to find it really disgusting ;) Anyway the point is its her choice what she wears and so I can live with her wearing fur but there is difference (for me) between that and being actively pro-fur. And it bothers me how being all sassy about it will result in a million fans thinking YAYZ FUR IZ COOL GAGA SEZ!!! That said, if it's fake her tweet is hilarious. Well, it's hilarious anyway but you know what I mean.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip 4 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 he wasn't pitting rabbits against cows/the leather trade, though. he was using the example to try and quantify worth of life, so it's not relevant. yes, not all leather is from the meat industry, but as far as i know, the majority is and that's a step in the right direction. i don't endorse the wearing of leather either. yes, people wear goat fur and eat goat meat. this really isn't lessening the case against fur whatsoever. the majority of fur is from sought after animals that we don't eat, we just kill to wear. not good. I agree with you. My problem is just that it's OK for her to wear meat and leather but fur is suddenly a big deal? And people call HER hypocritical? It's weird. There's some stigma around fur, and I understand it to a certain point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Envi 765 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 gaga needs a new set of fans tbh You're absolutely right! It's the same for insecure gay kids. The popular pupils should kill them cause they're higher in the food chain, it's just fair so you're telling me that insecure gay kids aren't human? :usrs: ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zexion_armando 241 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Many gays are animal advocates because we recognize that the same arrogance and indifference that some have toward animal suffering has at times been directed toward us personally because of our orientation. PETA has long participated in Pride events lol, I would rather be straight than be supported by PETA. And even then, I don't think I have ever heard anyone have that train of thought.

miju 375 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I don't care about meat/fur/leather. If you eat meat, I don't think you can say she shouldn't wear fur. Either way you're still using a dead animal whether you're eating it or she's wearing it. Eh I've never been a stickler about something like this. doseofamnesia. tumblr. com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster_95 0 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 People would like to believe that it's SO different. But nope not really. Mink isn't eaten! But goats etc are. Exactly. People need to learn more about it!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

australiagaga 28 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 It's real fur. And it's not really good enough I think. You shouldn't say one thing, and do another. It's really awful the process for fur, and she should not be promoting it at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
