I would like your opinion on animal fur.

So this morning it is very cold here. I wore leather gloves that have rabbit fur on the inside for insulation. They are warm and soft, very cozy. These gloves were given to me a few years ago by my aging grandfather who purchased the gloves nearly 60 years ago.

Anyways, a woman that I work with got upset with me about the gloves. Claiming that I was endorsing animal cruelty. I explained to her the origin of the gloves, the fact that they are a sort-of heirloom, and she still said I was supporting the "torturing" of animals.

What does the OT think?

I love fur. Extremely warm. Generally speaking industries that rely on a renewable resource to exist are all in favor of properly managing and conserving those resources.

Wait til lunch and go ape shite about the animal that was tortured on her plate. Rabbits are eaten too, besides none of her damn business.

Rubber snow boots, but I feel like I have seen her wearing leather boots before.

Tomorrow I would show up decked out in a fur coat like Joe Namath on the sidelines of a Jets game.

I have no problem with fur, meat or leather. I do think we have a responsibility to humanely treat animals.

faux fur is very much in style, so just tell people it's fake.

I love fur, but as a dude who grew up poor and in South Louisiana, I never had any. My SO, on the other hand, inherited some furs from her grandmother. She loves her rabbit fur earmuffs in the winter, so I bought her a faux fur"ish"/fleece patagonia vest that matches it. She loves it.

Tell her that you don't care and that she should mind her own business.

Reminds me of the old joke with the grizzly bear and the rabbit.


Rabbit hops upon a grizzly bear taking a dump. Grizzly bear looks down and says

"Hey rabbit, do you have a problem with the poo sticking to your fur when you take a shite?"

"Why no grizzly bear, I've never had that problem"

"Good, lucky for you" says the bear. Then he picks up the rabbit and wipes his arse with him.

frick that count.

I bet she owns SOMETHING made out of leather. Is she vegan?

Even if she is, she needs to mind her own damn business.
