My bf had the leather seats ripped out of his car?
He is a vegetarian and bought a lovely new Saab 95 Aero performance car. He had the seats changed because they were leather. Now there are two things here for me (I am not a veggie) 1. the cow had been killed anyway and he just had her hide thrown away 2. buying a performance car adds to his carbon footprint and is detrimental to the environment so in a way he has double standards. What do you think?

It is a new car but was in the show-room not specially ordered, and he buys vegetarian shoes etc.I will talk to him. This is the point of the question to get different perspectives, and I am on the cusp of being vegetarian especially after discovering what goes on with milk(another question) so dont give me a hard time or you will frighten me away!

Thanks Skully you made me laugh. Yes he is a bit of a twat but in a nice way, and very intelligent,and kind and caring and he makes me laugh too.He says that it can be difficult to avoid using animal products at times especially in his job as he is at the mercy of his enviroment but he does what he can. I guess this is fair, but I still think the car should be changed to one that has a smaller carbon footprint
Answers:
You write and reason like a very bright and articulate woman. So I am quite at a loss as to why you would associate with an idiot ... albeit a well-heeled idiot ... but still an idiot. Dump him and get someone that can match your gifts of critical thinking.
Your relationship is doomed.
