I'D RATHER NOT GO NAKED THAN WEAR FUR


I am all for banning fur and the likes since some of us take it way to far when it comes to the destruction of those creatures with less intelligence than we do. Peta's I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur Campaign, however, is just taking the trend of not wearing fur a bit too far. Would you tell the Inuit or the Eskimoes to go naked? I think not! In sub-zero temperature such as those seen in Siberia, Russia and Greenland to strip for the cause?

Celebrities (or should I say wannabe celebrities), who go naked for PETA are mostly attention grabbers in my book. Of course there may be a few genuine artifacts thrown in somewhere but my thoughts is that they want to take their clothes off. Not for the sake of the animals mind you, but out of sheer public campaigns for their own selfish agendas.

I won't mention names although it is quite easy to click on a few websites to find the culprits. Naked as the day they were born or sometimes with a purse or some other ridiculous accessory hiding their most private of places. I wonder what they would do if the only option was to wear fear or die from hypothermia? I don't know about you ladies - or men but I'd rather don some innocent skin than freeze my ass to death. But that's just me.

Do you think that a certain Baywatch babe would die for the cause? Or a particular Polish beauty would opt for freezing temperatures rather than drench herself in mink? Yes, there are those ridiculous so called fashionastas who wear fur for no apparent reason. Not only is it ugly but it is demeaning. But to stand up and say that you would rather go naked than cause an animal pain? Get off your high horses already!

When it comes down to it, I think every one of those idiots would pull a Sarah Palin and hunt a polar bear for much needed warmth. My suggestion is drop them all in Antartica with no clothes on. The winner is the first one to decide that they would rather not go naked.
