Because I'm Female
Because I'm female, my body and breast
feel for a cow and her life of unrest.
Because I'm female, I'm filled with disdain
at using sisters for financial gain.
Because I'm female, I'm upset at how
insemination is forced on a cow.
Because I'm female, it's awful to see
cows impregnated artificially.
Because I'm female, I see why they mourn
when somebody steals their cherished newborn.
Because I'm female, I'm saddened to think
male infants are killed for the dairy we drink.
Because I'm female, I naturally know
cow's milk is meant for a young calf to grow.
Because I'm female, my belief is strong:
Dairy consumption is sexist and wrong.

Are you sure it's because you are female, or that you have empathy.
I'm male and I feel exactly the way you do for cows. Seems rather odd to be making gender divisions on a blog for animal welfare. Maybe you are a Femanimalist, does this mean you don't feel for male castrated animals,, because you don't have testicles.
The world is getting stranger and stranger. The heart of a human is human, before gender relevance. Same with animals.
Okay, that makes sense.
I wrote this a long time ago, and really I don't think hardly anything the same as what I used to think and write about.
