What's the big deal? My Border Collie smells a little better with a bit of Sarah Jessica Parker's Lovely behind each ear and under her tail and the other dogs seem to find it alluring. And a bunch of uppity humans feel the need to protest in the streets. Geez.

Al right, you know why your here. We're testing a new line of products for primates. Rating scale is detrmined by grunts. One means "I think it looks fantastic on me" Five means " I wouldn't wear this at the zoo under any cicumstances" Any Questions?

Grunt, grunt, grunt?

Yes, free samples are included. Thank you for your participation.

Now, let's get started...

poor animals. they can feel everything

NO way Not today Not ever

FUCK NO

What amazes me is that they can get those cute little critters to fill out the tests. Are they multiple choice or essay? Do they provide translators? How are they able to hold the #2 pencils in their paws to completely fill in the little circles? Who exactly is it that determines if fluffy looks 'hot' 'smokin hot' or just plain 'trashy' in that fire-engine red lipstick? And please... does the glittery blue eye shadow on muffins really make her fido hot?  I think not. I'm afraid that I'll have to vote no on animal testing for cosmetics...

IT IS TOTALLY WRONGE!!

Hate!!! I did a report on it! It's no better than wearing there fur! =[

nooo heck nooo shove the hair products up your .........!!!!

again disturbing!!

*shoots people who does that*

I am "shocked" and amused. Does any of the one star posters not use deoderant, or lipstick, or aftershave, or mascara, or rouge, or hair dye, or lip gloss or other products? Does anyone out there use bath soap?

Come on, give me a break. You all do, folks, and these products must be tested before human use! 

Monkeys and mascara don't mix.

UPDATE: I've been told that my original review is a numbah hall of fame one-liner. For the record, I think we should test the stuff on convicts...

fuck that shit

I bet that almost all of you are wearing cosmetics or use cleaning products tested on animals so stop being such hippocrates and look at the greater good of things

non-human animals?

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

shhot em!!!

Hate animal testing

This is even so stupid to have on this quiz of course animal testing is dumb!

Test it on humans.

Awful

no, no, and hell no

disgusting

If you are going to test things like cosmetics then you need to test them on willing humans

I don't know... Can't we just test cosmetics for prolonged, painful ITCHY skin rashes on the buttcheeks of the men who judge women by these shallow standards?

we shouldn't use animals to test out our cosmetic...lets find a different solution

In the first place, cosmetics are stupid.

Lot of folks out there that would sign up to be lab rats for free, (As long as they get to keep the make-up lol )

boooooooo

It is a common misconception that most tests on animals are carried out with the aim of finding a cure for cancer, AIDS, or other devastating human diseases.

cruel.would not want a cosemetic that practiced this barbaric procedure. poor babies being hurt this way.  how would humans like to endure this torture all for cosmetics.

No, test cosmetics on willing PETA memeber volunteers instead.

cruel

They have been doing cosmetics for centuries and without any animal testings. Nowadays they put mostly dangerous chemicals in cosmetic products and need to know how much these poisonous compounds they can put in lipstick or mascara without killing humans immediately. They make 100 or 1000 times stronger poisons and wait how many hours it will take until animals are dead. So they can compute how long it will take until people start dying or getting sick and if it's over 2 years then nobody can sue them. It's just legal thing- only cosmetic companies that use no natural compounds do animal tests. Other animal experiments are totally useless- you can test diapers by wetting it with water and you don't have be a chemistry genius to test that HCl will burn your skin.

It's not about stepping on ants or spiders, but avoiding damage that can be avoided to animals. Is killing humans OK, if some of us are killing ants by accident or people are dying in war anyway?

everyone who rated a 1,I respect your view but it is narrowminded.I am not informed yet I know many animals are mistreated,testing in itself is not mistreatment.I would like to see if other ways are possible/viable but what is things such as toilet paper,feminine hygeine products,someone mentioned shampoos etc...not tested or worse tested on humans.I hate to say it but traditionally compared to humans animals are expendable and if you don't think so I challenge you not to kill a spider,step on an ant,swat a fly,bug spray a cockroach,or trap a mouse.And respectively chihuahua,animals were put on this planet and we were given dominion over them.That means we also have been given the commandment to act responsably in regards to them as well as use them for the betterment of our lives .

I don't know. Something about seeing a monkey wearing lipstick just isn't appealing to me. But that's just me.

I am an animal lover and don't condone abuse. But I guess it is okay that collagen is derived from aborted babies, huh?

In response to Genghisthehun, yes I use shampoo, but I always check the label to make sure the product was not tested on animals. I would much rather have the companies test their products on humans...after all we are the ones using them! And in response to Lightfinger2000, comparing a dog to a cockoach is a little outragous! Yes, i step on cockroaches and i sure as hell will kill a black widow if I see one but how anyone can condone locking a dog in a cage and only taking it out to plaster makeup all over it is beyond me! Yes, we were given "dominion" over dogs, but with that comes respecting that dominance as well. Parents are given dominence over their kids but you don't see anyone condoning child abuse! Dogs have feelings, every day when i come home from work i see the light spark up in my dogs eyes as they jump all over me trying to greet me. It is people with minds like yours that allow this to torture to continue to happen to these animals. It must stop! I leave you with this quote, "The dog has seldom been successful in pulling man up to its level of sagacity, but man has frequently dragged the dog down to his." ~James Thurber

I think that animal testing is dicusting and a disgrace to humanity and alot of my peers agree with me

What make up brands use Animal testing???.... I am very agenst thins and i am doing a research paper for school and i cant find what i am looking for HELP PLEASE!!!!

That's really upsets me!!!
How can you take alive animal and run tests on it like its worthless? These money-hungry industries should be burned!

This is nothing but cruel and inhumane treatment. These creatures are living and they have FEELINGS, just like people! Come on! We're in the 21st century. They should be able to test in much different ways by now.

I love animals and I'm against cruel animal treatment. But lets keep in mind without proper means of testing, many of the products we use may have deadly consequences like facial scarring. I'm sorry but I dont want either choices of not wearing makeup or having an allergic reaction from an untested product. Also keep in mind, the shampoo and soap are used for animal testing too. Yet I dont hear any protests on this.

I lean more for animal rights, so I am against this.

it infuriates me that i cannot get my hands on a list of the names of products tested on animals! i'm sick of shopping blindly!! its my right to know if a product is tested on animals.

There really is no reason anymore to use animal testing inthe cosmetic's industry any longer. The stuff that has been proven is basically out there already and to continue the testing is just irrelevant. Not to mention, the point of abusing these animals over vanity is a sin.

I would rather use a real guinea pig than a human one.

I know some fellas on the corner of Woodward and Michigan Avenue who will let you put make - up on them for free! No need to slap lipstick on cute little rabbits and kitties. I don't understand why this is necessary ...
