Reply to comment by Fonky_Fesh in Ben & Jerry's owner may launch ice cream made from cow-free dairy | The potential rise of lab-grown milk could result in amazing advances in the world of ice cream by chrisdh79
People complain about how current milking practices are bad for animal welfare. Imagine how much worse it would be if put human women in six-by-two-foot pens hooked up to machines.
The alternative would be to just let the humans live normal lives and pump just a little milk when they can, but that would be hugely inefficient. That way, human milk would be no cheaper than breast milk is now, which is like 100 times as expensive as cow's milk and with no benefit.

U srsly fucking think that human milk maids would be treated like farm animals?
