Drinking another mammals milk. WTF is all that about?

Why would anyone want to do such a thing?

And past weaning unecessary and slightly disgusting.

I think it should be stopped.

EccentricaGallumbits "the fact is. it is disgusting."

To you, I don't give a damn if there is a bit of pus in my milk, you would be amazed at some of the stuff that has passed these lips. Pus is nothing.

No it isn't somewhat hypocritical. It's extremely hypocritical.

I can't bear drinking milk or having it on cereal but I love cheese, chocolate and yoghurt. You're not alone, eccentrica.

Anyway there are loads of non-dairy sources of calcium such as tofu, tahini, green leafy vegetables, parsley, watercress, broccoli, swedes, almonds and brazil nuts.

Why don;t you go into a field, dig a hole, ie in it and die? that;s the only sure way to stop exploiting other living creatures and the Earth our Mother's Gaian resources and nourish them for future generations.

But by digging a hole and lying in it you might disturb some of the seeds that have floated down from the trees and flowers and you'd kill them.

Well then AIBU to think that eating cabbage is revolting and utterly unnecessary for humans in that case?

Don't drink milk but love cheese and chocolate

Am squeamish about eggs ever since as a Biology student we cracked open developing chick eggs at various stages of development and watched the tiny chicks hearts stop beating I know most eggs are unfertilised but am always expecting to find a little chick in one, have to crack eggs to make cakes though.

Poor cabbages.

Ruthlessly murdered to sate the appetites of brassica loving humans.

I hate milk too. Always have done, always will do. And many, many dairy products too. It is just wrong.

I could be boring and tell you that originally humans weren't designed to drink milk and that is why milk intollerance exists. Humans developed the ability to digest milk and an important source of nutrients in the colder environment of the north where other sources of nutrients were less available. This is why there is a low occurance in milk intollerance in Scandinavian countries and high occurance in china.

But that is just boring so it wont
