Show me your udders!

Why buy the cow when you can drink breast milk for free? PETA's weird ad likens women to dairy cows.

    Response to Gamma Girl

    You are using vegetarian and vegan interchangeably, and I, for one, don't react the same way to both terms. Vegan seems to connote a militant vegetarianism, advocacy for the animal rights thing, and support of PETA and similar organizations. I react negatively to that. Being a "vegetarian" does not carry the same meaning, and my reaction is not negative.

    I don't know what a "soft vegan" is, but it seems like an attempt to call yourself a vegan without exactly calling yourself a vegan. Just call yourself a vegetarian and let it go at that.
