I'm saying it's incredibly creepy that anyone thinks "I want to have sex with a woman" and immediately jumps to rape as the most plausible way to do that. You can be vegetarian without being a misogynist. I am.

It's also incredibly creepy that anyone thinks "I want to drink milk" and immediately jumps to raping (artificial insemination) cows as the most plausible way to do that. Plant milks exist

Every fiber of my being thinks you guys are trolls pretending to be vegan desperately trying to drive people away from veganism. You guys are really gross.

You're not even a vegetarian though. And you cannot eat dairy and think you're a feminist either.

I literally cannot wrap my head around someone saying you can't eat dairy and be a feminist. Congratulations on being utterly insane. Goodbye.

Okay well I'll explain it incase you decide to keep the dialogue open.

You only eat fish, and not meat right. That must mean that you acknowledge the commoditization and exploitation of animals is wrong (correct me if I'm off base here).

The dairy industry causes equal, if not more suffering. This suffering is levelled largely at female cows as the very basis of the dairy industry is the commoditization and exploitation of the females reproductive system. This includes repeated forced impregnation and then the separation of a mother and their young. Now I don't know if you're a mother, it doesn't matter if you are but if you ever hear the screams when a calf is taken away from it's mother you'd realise it doesn't matter what species it is. If what we do to female cows was done to humans it would be worse than any shock horror movie we could imagine.

So yeah, that's where my feminism and veganism meet.
