#i dont try to force my animals on everyone befause im a normal fucking person who understands boundaries

[anotherpapercut]

still reeling over seeing a comment on a Facebook post the other day saying that places that allow children should have to allow dogs because kids can be just as dirty as dogs. I honestly do not even know how to explain to self centered weirdos that their dog just straight up doesn't deserve the same rights as an actual human being. you can't leave your kids in crate in your house when you go out and far fewer people are allergic to and terrified of children than dogs. also it doesn't take a whole lot of thinking to figure out that complaining about children being in public, especially because they're "dirty", is just an inherently classist argument because poor people also need to be able to go outside and can't afford nannies to watch their kids when they do this, whereas people generally get dogs with the knowledge that they will be leaving them home alone sometimes. please use common sense.

#i cant be friends w people who are this obsessed with their dogs bc first of all theyre always the people who dont bother to train them #anyone who thinks they should be allowed to take their dog anywhere and everywhere that people are allowed doesnt respect boundaries #when it comes to their dog. like 95% of the time #ive never met someone who felt this strongly about their dog that respected people who dont want to be around dogs #these are always the people who let their dog jump all over me and then hit me with a 'haha hes friendly tho!' when i tell them to stop #i know your dog is your child or whatever like i have had pets my whole life and i get it #but im not trying to take my cats everywhere i go. when people tell me theyre uncomfortable around cats i keep my cats from them #i dont try to force my animals on everyone befause im a normal fucking person who understands boundaries #also just in general i do not know a single cat person who acts half as entitled as most dog owners i know #literally never once had a cat owner try to force their cat on me while this has happened dozens of times with dog owners ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
