You’re wrong about PETA | The nonprofit is a punchline. It’s also forced the world to face factory farming, animal cruelty, and our own hypocrisy (www.vox.com)

If there's some part of the explanation I've provided that you didn't understand, I'd be happy to clarify it, but I believe I explained that quite clearly.

Let me maybe give you an example: someone's companion animal is dying of cancer; they can't afford to have them treated, and there are no systems in place like medicare that would facilitate treatment. They can't afford to take their animal to a vet to have them euthanized. What should they do? Make their companion animal suffer a painful agonizing death, or take them to a shelter of last resort, such as PETA, who will euthanize their companion animal humanely?

I tip my hat to you - I think you've explained it so clearly that no one capable of using a keyboard and actually applying their mental faculties to this topic could fail to understand it. That includes kids

But what about male models?

I am not really a fan of euthanizing male models or kids, TBH.
