Spiritchaser Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 With all the uproar about cats and dogs being skinned alive for there pelts going on and how animals are having there backs broken by being swung around by their hind legs unitl the yelp and scream unmercifully for the skin off their backs I'm wondering how many of you would wear fur from any animal?

Inno Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I would not wear fur. There's several humans that I would quite happily skin and wear their 'fur' but apparantly that's illegal, and a little bit childish. meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenmark Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 No, I prefer to be clean shaven..... Oh animal fur? No, I wouldn't wear it - I disagree with killing animals for fur, although I can understand the need to kill animals for food. Fur is a luxury, food is a neccesity.

Russ Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Oh come ON! The set ups for jokes about AC's particular fancy are coming thick and fast today. This one is too obvious though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss T Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I would defo wear fur and i often wear my mothers old stuff (which is coming back into fashion!) I know people will say im cruel but I really dont give a ****! :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Crow Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I wouldn't wear fur ever. I think it looks tacky and vile (not to be confused with Taki and Vaile), and I don't agree with skinning animals mercilessly for the sake of fashion that looks disgusting.

Anime Otaku Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 oh hell no i wouldn't dream of wearing fur, Leather is a different matter as its a by product of the food trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherry Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 If the animals were either killed humanely or died of natural causes then I would wear fur. I don't agree with animals suffering purely so I can keep up to date with the latest fashions. ~Cherry, xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutt Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I'm not one to wear killed animals' furs, however as Cherry said if the animal died of natural causes (and the fur happened to look rather snazzy) I may wear it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kakarot Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 No. But only because I would look like a fool. I dont see a problem as long as the animal in question is eaten. Weird logic, but it makes sense. So dog fur in Korea yes. But unless you like the taste of corgi, your only killing it for superficial reasons, so thats a no-no. But to be fair there is no way you could tell if the fur had come from an animal that had naturally died, or killed to make a nice curry in the east. So it's easier just to boycott it altogether. But animal rights always seem to bring out everyones inner hypocrite, so it's never gonna be a straightforward topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taki Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Of course I would, especially fox fur, oh whoops best be careful might have the animal rights campaigners on my back again, after the fox hunting thread. I've worn fur on many occasions, whats the point in whining about it, animals get killed every day by cars and such whats the harm in killing them for a purpose. xXx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Crow Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 So by that reckoning, I can happily stab you in Doncaster and feel good about it. Cool :xyx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anime Otaku Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 oh i forgot, deer skin is also okay as they are usually killed for venison but i'd only be happy to do so if it was killed by a professional hunts man not just some yahoo wih a gun which is the ting i don't like about the continuation in fox hunting, if they have pros shooting them and killing them outright then its fine but not some rookie that can't aim straight or having dogs maul them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Genetic Jackhammer Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 killing any animals for fur is just sick and if you dont think so, maybe you should just think about it a bit longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Would i wear fur? No, because its one of the only things that wouldnt look good on me! As for the reasoning behind wearing fur and the killing of the animals, i stay out of it. I dont agree nor disagree with what goes on, i take a completely neutral stance.

Spiritchaser Posted March 13, 2005 Author Share Posted March 13, 2005 The wearing of fur shows to me that when you wear fur you need it to feel good or nice within yourself. I feel a lot nicer in human skin! Spiritchaser Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss T Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Lol,of course fur feels good and nice, thats the whole point of it. I think that you meant that the people who wear fur do so to feel good about themselves, if so then your completely wrong! I wear fur because it looks nice and its warm and comfy!

Popsi Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 I find it difficult to care about the whole issue of wearing fur - much like i find it hard to care about fox-hunting. Its all so far removed from my life that i just figure i have much more important things to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiritchaser Posted March 13, 2005 Author Share Posted March 13, 2005 Lol' date='of course fur feels good and nice, thats the whole point of it.

I wear fur because it looks nice and its warm and comfy![/quote'] How patronising is that. I think we should resort to Caveman mentality then and all wear fur oh and of course hit women over the head and drag them back to our caves. ;) Spiritchaser Millenium Man :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anime Otaku Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 (edited) WARNING EXTREME VIOLENCE/ANIMAL CRUELTY http://www.jlodown.com The videos on here show how Fur is taken from the animals by skinning them alive taking as much as 10 minutes to die, if you can watch this and still wear fur wih a clear conscience then you actually have no conscience at all.

Goldy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I won't click on that link as I know it'll upset me. I wouldn't wear fur and totally deplore those that do. I just don't see the need at all, there's plenty of man made materials to choose from. I don't even think people wearing fur look attractive, it's all very 'Dynasty' esq. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anime Otaku Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 yeah if you can afford to get furs try places like babyphat that do designer faux fur coats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
