okay, so just before on the train (i'm still on shes giving me death stares! Haha) it is packed, and i had a bag next to me on my seat, my bag, and so this lady wearing fur (i could tell) and she goes '' Can i sit there? '' and i go '' ye- wait. Is that real fur? Or fake? '' and she goes '' ah, well it's real of course. It's so warm in this kind of weather '' and i give a digusted face and go '' UHH.. NO. I DONT SIT NEXT TO PEOPLE WHO WEAR DEAD ANIMALS.. DO YOU KNOW THAT ONCE BELONGED TO A BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL? FUR IS MEANT TO STAY ON ANIMALS NOT HAVE OT SKINNED OFF, WHILE THEY A FULLY ALIVE '' and the whole train starts looking at me, and she looks surprised and says '' skinned alive? Haha. Silly girl, you don't know. Now can you please move your bag ''
And i put my legs up on the seat and go '' NO. AND YOU THINK THEY ARN'T SKINNED ALIVE? WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT HOW THEY GET YOUR DISGUSTING JACKET? NOTHING. NO YOU CAN STAND UP, GET AWAY FROM ME '' and she looks angry, and i refused to move my legs or bag, then until the train starts and she falls, and moves up, standing there for a 30 minute long train ride.... And no handles to hang on to
Do you think i was too mean?
) For all you know she may think it's no worse than leather, which obviously in our books is unagreeable, but seems to be more accepted in society. I just think perhaps you could have had a more informative discussion that resulted in opening her mind a bit wider rather than yelling and refusing to let her have a seat. It's that kind of thing that can give animal activists a bad reputation.
