Anti Fur anyone?Celebrity Aya Sugimoto, 40, takes part in an anti-fur campaign by the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Asia Pacific (PETA) in Tokyo on Wednesday afternoon. Her photo is scheduled to be used in PETA’s upcoming advertising campaign in Japan, according to Jason Baker, director of PETA. Sugimoto said, “When I think of those poor animals, it’s no big deal for me to be naked in an ad. A woman can be gorgeous without real fur.” Asked about leather products, she said she still continues to buy them because “leather production is different from fur production.” However, Sugimoto said she has never visited fur production facilities but had seen photos and movies of them on the Internet.Source: JapanToday

Wow, no anti-Peta comments. I'm surprised. Anti-fur all the way. 40?! Looking good. I can dig.
(ID #305043) Posted on 2008/09/18 04:18
I have problems with many of PETA's tactics and their idea that any meat is bad (They are very wrong) but I approve of this image. As for wearing fur, I don't, but that's because some fur bothers my skin. And I'm poor. And there aren't many fur men's coats.

I never liked the concept of surrounding my body with a dead animal's skin for the sake of fashion, so kudos for this.
(ID #305128) Posted on 2008/09/18 06:05
As resident Vegan, I fully support this, but boo to her still wearing leather.. that's just hypocrisy, wearing an animals skin is wrong whether it's leather or fur!

I was wondering why no one had mentioned that. "Fur production and leather production are different"? Sounds like a flimsy excuse to me.
(ID #305626) Posted on 2008/09/18 15:49
oh this is way better than fur, drool*
(ID #305329) Posted on 2008/09/18 10:35
Anti-fur? Not at all, actually, I'm Anti-Anti-fur. Many of those movement,especially Peta, are hypocrite in their movement. Say half truth or blatant lie. Also, I think it was McCartney wife that was all happy about her synthetic fur protecting the seal? Yeah, flash news, I'm sure that seal will be happy that you doomed is whole species by "protecting" it with synthetic fur, which production create greenhouse effect gas, and their habitat is totally destroyed. No, I'm not at all anti-fur and supporter of peta like group. On the other hand, she can get naked all she want. I won't complain about it. ;)
