PETA Posted A Picture Of A Breastfeeding Cow And The Response Backfired

by Rachel

PETA have long been avid campaigners for animal rights. And some of their campaigns are a little... extreme, to put it mildly. Some companies have to rely on shock factor to get their message across and PETA are experts at that. Rather than informative, logical and emotional campaigns, they prefer to do things a little differently.

PETA recently tweeted a picture to encourage humans not to drink cows milk. Because, of course, cow milk was made for baby cows, not humans. The way PETA tried to spread this message was completely bizarre. I don't know what their marketing manager was thinking, but I do know it was supposed to cause a major reaction; and it did.

Here is the image that was Tweeted.

Looks weird right?

It's what you're doing if you drink cow's milk ✋ Raise your hand if you know that humans shouldn’t be drinking cow’s breast milk. It was made for their babies—not you!

I also wondered this

While you’re at it, please let us know what milk does the person handling this account drinks. We first need to take care of that to save humanity.

"Sexual awakening" is one way of putting it

I really didn't want to have this sexual awakening today

The image may have had adverse effects

I'm gonna drink even more milk now

Cow milk > almond milk

PSA: Almond milk is also bad for the environment.

I recently switched from cow milk over to almond milk but after seeing this picture I am going to go back to cow milk. This looks delicious!

Some required a second thought

I'm starting to realize that I'm actually kind of turned on by this picture.

I, too, would like more information

I don’t quite understand. Do you have any more detailed pics

Some people noticed similarities with other people

Cows shouldn't be body-shamed either

Honestly this is really insensitive of PETA, this isn’t what your average breast feeding cow looks like, why are you making them skinny and flawless? Stop bovine body shaming in 2019

Why did they decide to objectify a COW?

Can I get an uncensored version?

— August Eimer (@Augusty_V) March 30, 2019

Others noted why PETA should take a more serious approach--shock factor will only get so much attention but real change comes from influencing behaviour

This type of stuff is why no one takes PETA seriously. No one in my generation supports you. No one. In less than 10 years you will be gone.

I'm no expert either, but I'm pretty sure that's not how a cow works

I think you might want to take some courses on animal anatomy. Specifically cows..... 🤔

AND this is how you get almond milk!

Here are some gendered almonds, as if the situation couldn't get any worse

And finally, the point was made that it'd be weird to have an old man sucking on any kind of breast.

Y'know if you drew a guy that old sucking on a lactating human breast -- that would also look weird, right? https://t.co/QbZsdq71LH
