Hypocrisy

First Pub­lished 2009
Some­times I just have to laugh at the hypocrisy of hoomans…. 

If I wore a fur coat.. I would be looked down upon and crit­i­cized. I would have PETA on my ass for wear­ing a dead ani­mal. If I wore fur and I was pho­tographed by the paparazzi for wear­ing such said fur, I would suf­fer pub­lic shame and Naked PETA protests out­side my abode. I might even make nation­al news head­lines.

 

Many celebri­ties have joined the PETA cause over the years includ­ing Pamela Ander­son “Oh No I could nev­er wear fur”. Celebri­ties hold news con­fer­ences, Char­i­ty doo’s and are at the fore­front of ani­mal rights march­es and protests in their effort to stop peo­ple wear­ing dead ani­mals……

No celebri­ty who wants to keep their career and pub­lic pop­u­lar­i­ty would be caught dead in a fox fur coat or a mink stole and most are vocal in their anti fur stance.

Can you say “Join­ing caus­es because it is trendy”.

Even Anne Win­tour the edi­tor of Vogue mag­a­zine wears fake fur instead of the real Mc Coy…. It is con­sid­ered a huge blun­der for stars to wear real fur…..

So Ok we know from all this that wear­ing fur is bad. Wear­ing dead ani­mals is bad.

 

That is where I laugh at the hypocrisy. 

Because at the same time this “Anti Fur” celebri­ty stance is on the rise, so is anoth­er trend…..

 

The good Old Aussie Ugg Boot.

Ugg boots are not new to us Aussies. I remem­ber hav­ing them as a kid. Most Aus­tralians wear them hap­pi­ly around dur­ing the cold­er months and some even in sum­mer.

 

Just late­ly over the past cou­ple of years UGG Boots have grown into a multi­na­tion­al rage across the world. Stores spe­cial­iz­ing in UGG boot sales are spring­ing up every­where from Hol­ly­wood to London’s trendi­er sub­urbs.

 

Every­one who is any­one is now wear­ing UGG Boots and attend­ing store open­ing of UGG boot shops across the world..

 

So how is that hyp­o­crit­i­cal

Well I don’t know what rock all these hyp­o­crit­i­cal peo­ple were born under.. because UGG Boots are made of Sheep­skin.. yup a poor ole sheep had to die a nasty death to get those boots that are so com­fy and warm….You are still wear­ing a dead ani­mal……

 

 

 

So I per­son­al­ly can’t see the dif­fer­ence between killing a fox for his fur or a sheep for his skin…. can you?
