As a vegetarian, I've always been curious about one thing in particular with vegans: If you don't milk a cow, it is in pain. So how do you help by not drinking the milk? ps: I do really like your blog, this is a legitimate question.

milk is for baby cows. it is not suppose to cause pain to the animal. much like a human mother produces milk for her offspring. the reason it hurts them is because of the growth hormones and other bullshit they inject into them to make them produce more. nowadays, cows are producing tooooo much because of that, hence the painful, bloated looking utters . humans created their pain.
