Sitting here in the sweltering heat, I got to thinking...I inherited a mink fur coat from my great grandmother some time ago. It is in desperate need of oiling and some sewing repairs---I would really like to restore it. Can anyone refer to someone here in Munich (or around Munich) that might be able to perform this service, please? Thanks. Stay cool A
katz
I hope you are not thinking of wearing it, are you?

There is a store that sells beautiful furs here in Deggendorf. If you don't find anything in Munich, pm me and I can ask them.

it is a little hot for it today but why wouldn't she wear it?

Reger pelz on the corner of Isartor

take a wild guess wink.gif Whether you agree with it or not, I reckon it's possible to think of a reason why some people may object.

Not sure this thread is the time or place though for such a discussion
planetmoni
we are living in a free country, so i guess anyone can wear what they like

I just think beautiful woman on her back.

Just dont wear it in England then, or someone will spit on you.

Really? I'd like to see you walk through town with a Swastika on you then?

@ toronto,
that is why I deleted my post dry.gif

Thought this was a thread about reverse waxing, sorry, carry on.
planetmoni
london doesn't get cold enough...

(by no means i am a fur supporter unsure.gif )
parnell
Now I know what they mean by "She's a total nazi about hair removal"
planetmoni
SiM: do you want to wear a swastika?
SleeplessInMunich
No, of course not. Its just your statement that its a free country and you can basically do what you want isn't true.
Carm
there is also a Furrier on Theatinerstr- almost at the Rathaus, just by where the 19tram turns the corner- sorry don't know the name, but they do have nice stuff.
katz
Carm do you wear fur?
grazzenger
well obviously SiM but last time I checked, wearing a fur coat wasn't against the law and you know exactly what planetmoni was talking about. if you are against wearing fur, i strongly suggest not going near any nordic country in winter, it's a bit of an eye-opener.
Carm
Katz- Yes I do. I have a beautiful full length Blue Fox. I do love it. That is my opinion, I do respect yours for choosing not to. There was a thread last year about Fur wearing. Got quite heated and nasty.
Johnny English
We inherited a load of fur coats from my wife's grandmother last year. Flogged 'em all on ebay 'cos they are just nasty basically. Couldn't give a frig about the furry little animals. I feel more sorry for battery chickens.
Yeti
So you can wear Swastikas openly in Scandanavia ?
grazzenger
...and i can see this one going in exactly the same direction. popcorn anyone?
katz
I lived in Hong Kong and all the rich ladies would bring out their furs in the winter and it never got colder than 10°c.

yep, so I will leave it now.
grazzenger
you've obviously studied scandi politics yeti wink.gif my wife hadn't seen a non-blonde, let alone anyone with coloured skin until she moved to the states when she was ten. swedes can have some rather, erm, strong opinions concerning race, shall we say. (who do you think adolf h idealised as the aryan race?)

A slight Freudian slip there I see...
katz
Carm I see you are from Canada and I know its ok to wear fur there, I still think it looks better on the fox.

Actually this is just inconsistent shit -
argument against wearing swastikas - nasty fukkers used to wear them and it's offensive to lots
argument against wearing fur - nasty fukkers wear them and it's offensive to lots

basis of said law is the same and should be extended to modern nasty fukkers.
grazzenger
just the smallest of differences between these two groups parnell, only slight, mind.
Yeti
With my vast experience (I know one Finn and one Norwegian well) Scandanavians always have strong opinions, when they actually have one.

Anyway getting this topic back on track; Is don_riina going to donate enough rabbit skins to make Sleepless a wee fur outfit ? Will Zebedee every lay off the crackpipe ? Who was that Masked Man ?
Jules Winnfield
@parnell
You participated in this free-for-all last year and I don't quite remember what your position was on meat/leather? Care to refresh my memory?
grazzenger
haha yeti, yes, and my wife's family considers her the stubborn one!!
parnell
@ Jules
Sure buddy ,
basically it's this - meat is good , specially that Ms. Puerto Rico...

We established also that death isn't the issue , but the means of death is what pisses off a lot of folks.

Also Yeti smokes the crack oh yes.

The Truth about PETA

QUOTE
ETA raked in nearly $29 million last year in income, much of it raised from pet owners who think their donations actually help animals. Instead, the group spends huge sums on programs equating people who eat chicken with Nazis, scaring young children away from drinking milk, recruiting children into the radical animal-rights lifestyle, and intimidating businessmen and their families in their own neighborhoods. PETA has also spent tens of thousands of dollars defending arsonists and other violent extremists.

PETA claims it engages in outrageous media-seeking stunts "for the animals." But which animals? Carping about the value of future two-piece dinners while administering lethal injections to puppies and kittens isn't ethical. It's hypocritical -- with a death toll that PETA would protest if it weren't their own doing.

7 things you didn't know about PETA
Moonboot
walked past the big fur shop at ISARTOR last year, the stuff they make out of fur there is just odd. fur bikinis, what's that all about? they had a matching waistcoat and luggage set made out of HAMSTER fur!

anyway I, for one, am glad this topic has re-surfaced, obviously there was a lot left out, on both sides, in the original one.

when I see a person wearing 'exotic' furs, I have no admiration for them at all, think they look oudated to be honest.
Yeti
Mad, can you imagine carrying around a hamsters bag ?

judders

Don't you think we have bigger problems than fur?

I just had a vision...ace venturer hits a pompus monopoly guy and wears him like fur...laugh.gif so funny

@ Yeti...just because *some* people walk around their houses naked in their fur coats does not make it erotic. And please having sex on those things is about as pointless as sex on the beach. You get sweaty and things stick to your ass. People please the damn thing is two generations old, it was left to her by her grandmother she's got the right to restore it. Good luck to you.
Moonboot
if my grandmother'd've left me an old flea-bitten manky fur coat I'd've been well disappointed.
wouldn't be paying money to have it restored that's for sure.

Actually I kind of imagine Toronto to be the kind of chic who goes out beats a baby seal to death then brings it back home , gouges out it's eyeballs and then masturbates furiously to a soundtrack of "Damien The Omen" on the rotting carcass... if i left out some details here then let me kno hun . kthxbai
Toronto
Hey parnell - how did i get into this again? honey i wouldnt be caught dead wearing baby seals. Blah, how tasteless - its so last season. And killing it myself...eww...how blue collared. dry.gif

Imagine this. The Ice Hotel...somewhere in scandinavia.. 3/4 length Russian sable with a matching fox collar...nothing but a matte gold bikini and a pair strapy gold Jimmy Choos. And diamonds baby...dripping with diamonds...Muhahahaa... huh.gif Sorry, total daydream. rolleyes.gif

In this weather I'd settle for just the bikini.
jml
they got fur bikinis you know.

@JML

I'll let you in on my secret, looks like I already have all the advantages of wearing fur, without actually wearing it. Maybe I should give seminars ?
jml
your talking about the hair on your ass again? yeah that would be a good seminar.

oo maybe next season's fur look could be Yeti-lined bovva boots with matching Yeti beany, teamed with a Yeti-cuffed bomber jacket. the fur would have to be humanely acquired though.
