We had a guest speaker come in to talk about real fur, the different types and how they are used in products. His aim was to give us information about its practical uses, rather than change our minds.
The talk made me think about my own views. I wondered why people feel strongly about real fur while accepting other animal products, such as leather, or eating meat. It raised questions for me about where we draw the line.
Hearing his perspective gave me plenty to reflect on and encouraged me to think more carefully about the materials used in
fashion
