Would YOU wear fur?

Recently, I've read a lot in the press about how fur might be making a comeback following several displays of the stuff at London Fashion Week. This was a picture that personally, I found to be revolting: click here.
So, a question for the women: would YOU wear fur?
EDIT: I meant real fur, not the fake stuff.

Faux fur's a different matter altogether though!
What's dead is dead, if it's already been made into a coat, what's the harm in wearing it!?

Visit this site and see how you feel afterwards. Oh yes, and this is one way that a mink can be caught. I make no apologies for posting this image:
Try looking at the other pictures here, and then answer your question: click here.
really upset me that did
And Ilora, you know they actually breed animals for their fur like chinchilla's, you know the kind you can buy in petshops don't you?
As for the photo of the mink, I'm actually crying as I type this. Fucking shocking, the sooner the market is closed down the better.
Just so you know stargalaxy the mink they use in the fur industry are usually bread for that cause, not caught in the wild, they live in cages all their life become vicious and agitated attacking their neighbours and themselves, and they are then gased to death, then skinned while some of them are apperently just unconcious. Lovely stuff.
Although it seems a bit hypocritcal of me saying all this, cause while i don't eat beef, lamb, pork etc i do still eat chicken, and while all the ones i buy are free range and all that blah, they are still bred for the purpose of eating, like these animals are bred for fur, while i dissagree with it totally, you can't help but wonder how people can be so against it while they freely chomp on animals that have faced the same fate everyday.
Though at the same time we wear leather shoes and things like that and don't think anything of it.
Less of the rage, just saying cause you was posting pictures of the traps and stuff, i was merely pointing out that is not how it is (mostly) done.
Don't edit your post after i've quoted it, how rude!
Did i say it made a difference, nope, did i say it made it any less revolting, no.
A question though, do you eat meat stargalaxy? do you wear leather shoes, leather belts, bags etc?
So be that for my plate or my coat if the animal was looked after ok then I see no problem what so ever.
(I dont own any fur by the way)
In saying that though, Beans is right. I still wear leather shoes (oh,how I
:yes:
Also, theoretically, we should be killing mink. They're proper little freeloaders (think doleys), whilst cows are one ofthe major contributors (if not the biggest) to 'animal society'.
i agree with this, and i also think that in a climate like ours, there's no real need to wear fur. the fakes are there if you like the look, and we never get cold enough to need it, really.
spend a winter in siberia and see how anti-fur you are then. there it's more of a necessity than a fashion, so i'm ok with it.
Only when I'm in Siberia then....
We dont NEED to eat as many animals as we do, but we choose too.
As it stands fur is deeply unethical because of the way its made, however, if you could buy free range fur I wouldnt see any problem with it. Even if we didnt really need to have it.
I wouldn't've said you're disrespectful either.
