It really is weird that we use leather products (i.e. cow's skins) around cows. It would be somewhat like prison guards wearing around the skins of previous prisoners, right?

There's no reason to continue brutalizing these beings; we have plenty of other options to choose from. And for anyone seeking a replacement for their Canada Goose jacket, I recommend wuxly.ca to your attention.

Updating sports equipment to cruelty-free options is a social hurdle. This will obviously effect baseball and American-football, but footballs (or "soccer" balls) have pretty much made the transition. Are there other sports that also need to up their game?

The leather industry is inherently linked with the meat industry, providing the latter with much-needed profits. Add to that the toxins necessary to process once-living skins, and the industry doesn't come out looking good at all.

When confronted by the ethical considerations of leather, many people exclaim that it is a mere by-product of the meat industry and is thus absolved of culpability. The truth is quite different. Far f

This comic highlights the turns of phrase that try to make killing OK; e.g. "give their life" or "harvest their bodies". Have you ever had to explain to someone that the body-parts they're wearing didn't come from a happily volunteering victim?

It's amazing how often this challenge is levied by pre-vegans, as though you wearing (faux) leather somehow excuses their killing -- EVEN IF what you're wearing HAD been made of animal's skins. Have you had a non-vegan challenge you by asking what your clothing is made of?

Feathers and down - cruelly-begotten products of an incredibly lucrative industry - show up stuffed in our comforters and puffed up in our coats. Further, ostriches suffer immense pain as the result of taking their down and plumes.

The subtle commentary being that the usual victims of bullwhips can't or won't "walk up" on their aggressor. Cows, horses, and even lions are tyrannized by such tools, and in all cases it's a disgusting abuse of power over defenseless individuals.
