Lactose intolerance is only a mental illness if you simply do not tolerate dairy on a non-physical level. Like a milk racist.

Once I learned about how the cows are constantly pregnant in order to produce that milk, and the calves are separated post birth, etc etc, I'm pretty milk racist, tbh.

You mean like a vegan?

yea, I really hate when people are cruel to animals, I think that might be what you mean?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]They are not pregnant, they get prolactin, which you can buy at every pharmacy. It works on men as well.
Edit: I've done some research and you people seem to be right. Hormones only get used on a very limited scale in the USA. In the EU, they are even illegal because there's no research to support them. And it's not prolactin that's being used for that, but Bovine somatotropin.

Basically, nobody sells it, but you could technically produce milk in a way more animal friendly way. The current breads of cows all over the world have an influx in milk production, so even if you do not take the calf away and milk them manually, it would still be enough milk to use/sell.
This is all hugely theoretical unless you yourself have a couple cows that you milk for personal use or a small farm.
You are probably just anti-milk industry than actually anti-milk.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Any sources for your claims? AFAIK prolactine is basically irrelevant for cows (and goat).

wrote on last edited by [email protected]What the fuck are you talking about, and why is this garbage upvoted? Prolactin can affect milk yield. But "they are not pregnant" is absolute, categorical horseshit. You've either bought a lie or are lying. Look at that paper and see the disgusting, brutal efficiency with which the dairy industry researches how best to precisely rape, forcibly impregnate, and steal the offspring of cows so they can eke out fractions of a cent on each gallon of milk sold.
"Tofu will give you boobs." "Prolactin supplements without pregnancy can drive commercial milk production." The universe of bizarre omnivore misconceptions is apparently just a transfem paradise.

FWIW, I am not strictly vegan, but the vast majority of my meals are. And I am actually lactose intolerant. I do actually like the taste of a really cold glass of whole milk. And ice cream is amazing. If I am having some kind of spread, I prefer real butter to the fake stuff. Dairy is delicious. I just try to minimize my intake and only buy from the farms that spend the most on animal welfare.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Don't tell me you're going to "um ackshually" this because "muh voluntary waiting period*". A cow pregnancy lasts approximately 40 weeks. A traditional target for a "calving interval" (from birth to birth) is 52 weeks, and new research shows that a VWP of 50 days is more profitable than longer VWPs, bringing us to about 7 weeks from calving to insemination. That's either pregnant or being being made pregnant for 40 out of 47 weeks, and you know what? I'd say @[email protected]'s comment holds.
Commie, I know you're chronically a shameless, lying fuck about a specific study because it's devastating to your case, but can you at least stick to lies that people might believe if you say it with enough absolute, unearned confidence? Imagine how fucking slimy you'd have to be to say being or becoming pregnant ~85% of the time (with the recovery period calculated to be as ruthlessly minimal as possible, optimized solely for profit) isn't "constantly pregnant". "What do you mean I'm 'constantly working'? I only put in 145 hours a week, and there are 168 hours in a week."
* the VWP is the time after birth but before attempting rebreeding

I have a simpler solution. Humans make milk.
