      My point was that my proposed wording would say that “they can if they want to” and not “they shouldn’t even if they want to” because that’s what your wording implifies. I added a second sentence because I assumed you may be actually be against drinking milk at all for personal reasons or something.

            How do you think they feel about being forcibly impregnated over and over and over again? And having their children taken away from them each time?

              Cows don’t have agency. Also you just moved the goalposts from milking to forced pregnancy.

                Correct. That’s my point.

                Also you just moved the goalposts from milking to forced pregnancy.

                Cows don’t produce milk unless they’re kept pregnant. You can’t have one without the other.

                  You can absolutely have milk without forced pregnancy. Your assertion is simply a lie.
