Maybe not necessarily the dairy cow herself, but she needs to be pregnant about once per year so she doesn't stop producing milk. That means that the calves inevitably need to be slaughtered (as well as older dairy cows) or else the herd would keep growing year after year.

Never mind the practices that go into ensuring that they become pregnant.

I will happily drink any woman's milk if she's offering, but it's actually extremely weird that y'all steal cow milk.

I think it's extremely weird that you would happily drink any woman's milk.

But it is MUCH less weird than drinking bovine lactate and somatic cells.
