How It's Made Silk

Silk, spun delicately by silkworms, embodies timeless elegance and luxury. Its smooth, opalescent threads whisper against the skin, capturing light like liquid moonbeams. From the ancient Silk Road to modern fashion, silk weaves a tale of history, artistry, and allure in its shimmering embrace.

Glad you enjoyed!

[@frogz]

ah, silk, the most humane fabric known to man, millions of baby moths, born into the world destined to die a horrible death before they even reach adulthood

[@CaptainCook1778]

Ah yes from the nation that gave us such delicacies as bear bile, beaten dog meat, extinct animal body bits, live monkey brains …..need I go on?

[@frogz]

@@CaptainCook1778 please, im getting hungry already! animals taste so much better when they suffer.....not x.x
dont get me wrong, i enjoy eating meat, but i prefer if the animal lived a somewhat enjoyable life before being converted to food

[@TheEmeraldMenOfficial]

@@frogz They do, they get to eat all the leaves they want and build a house!

[@frogz]

i mean in theory, i could disassemble them and re-use their bones to make a house when i am done eating them

[@xeroxcopy8183]

[@robrodriguez2876]

No animals here. Just bugs. If you think this is bad, look up how some red dyes are made.

[@ekoprasetiyo]

@@robrodriguez2876 so bugs considered a plant then not animal

Weak from hunger in their protein free diet

[@andriuhee2710]

Don't worry, if anything this is a mercy killing. When they become adult moths and hatch from their cocoon, they don't have a mouth; they have time to breed, and then after they lay eggs they slowly starve to death over the course of three days to a week. It's pretty horrible, since you could give them all the mulberry leaves they could care to eat, and yet... they can't eat, because their mouth has been fused shut in their cocoons.
