and last time i checked, milking is a natural process for mammals. | Other animals are not known to be able to make the conscious decision to eat alternatives to meat.

My problem with milking is that cows are almost always forced to be give birth to calfs so that they continue to produce milk. This is not healthy for them and this is why I want to stop consuming dairy priducts soon.
