I also would not buy a mink

Neither. Fur coats are ugly and they just get filthy in all that furriness.
Besides, I'd rather pet animals than wear them.

I'm baffled that people still want fur coats in our supposedly emotionally enlightened age. I have to agree with the guy who said that if a person wearing a mink coat entered his house they would be covered in fecal matter in no time.
Animals are not a commodity. If you have pets, you should know better than anyone that fur is cruel and unecessary. Imagine skinning your cat and wearing his fur?!

A mink coat--not to wear, oddly enough; just to have around for petting purposes.
Yes, I know I'm weird, but honestly, mink feels really, really good to pet. I wouldn't even want an actual coat, just a long sleeve would be fine, or even a muff.

Neither. Fur is tacky IMHO. However, if I didn't think fur was tacky I'd likely go synthetic. I don't believe in killing animals for their fur. However - if the animals were also being consumed I wouldn't have as much of a problem with it. That's why I'm not against leather. We eat cows. But how many people do you know who eat mink?

I don't celebrate Christmas, but I will take fur anytime. It's not a fashion statement where I'm from, it's just clothing that is capable of keeping you warm enough to survive outdoors in the winter, and I have a lot of it. Not mink though, mostly bigger stuff like coyote, wolf, maybe fox. They're all over the place and killed for pests anyway. The wolves here will eat your dogs. They will eat you. I have no problem wearing them.

neither. Wearing a fur or mink coat in the country that i live would be a crime against myself.
Besides I will not encourage the killing of animals for our selfish uses.

Antonio Banderas. In a synthetic fur coat and nada underneath.

Neither, I live in Sin City. It would be only good for 2 months. A complete waste of money. Besides furs are just ugly.

Neither. The money spent on that type of coat could feed hundreds of families. I would rather give the money to someone in need.

I want a coat made out of Panda fur and baby seals and stuffed with spotted owl down. I also want it made on machines that use Right Wale oil as lubricant.
