Animals Are Not Insults

Animals are not insults

They should never be used as such

No, that person that got you mad is not a goat

Goats are daring

They are audacious

They give us milk, meat and hide for our clothes

Call that person what he is, annoying

No, that guy that cheated on you is not a dog

Dogs are loyal

They give us companionship,

They stick around, they love us, they and would do anything for us

Call that guy what he is, a cheater

No, that woman that talks to much is not a parrot

Parrots are smart

They keep us entertained

They make us giggle, laugh, and make our homes jovial

Call that woman what she is, talkative

No, that neighbour that sits around all day is not a cow

Cows are robust

They are full of energy

They give us beef, cheese and make our farms fertile

Call that neighbour what he is, lazy

No, that leader that grabs everything is not a pig

Pigs are resourceful

They improve our lives

They give us food, manure and they make us work hard

Call that leader what he is, greedy

No, that member that follows easily is not a sheep

Sheep are meek

They are obedient

They give us wool, meat and they keep us warm

Call that member what they are, gullible

No, that friend that backstabbed you is not a snake

Snakes are sleek

They are lustrous

They hunt pests and rodents and they keep them away

Call that friend what they are, disloyal

No, that girl that is constantly afraid is not a chicken

Chickens are vigorous

They are eager

They give us feathers, eggs, and stock for our bones

Call that girl what she is, fearful

No, that contractor that lied to you is not a rat

Rats are stealthy

They are impactful

They are used in research, in tests and can be great pets

Call that contractor what they are, sneaky

No, animals are not insults

Animals are meaningful

They are part of us

They feed us, give us companionship and improve our lives

Animals are not insults

Let’s stop using them as such
