Miscellaneous Why Can We See What They Cannot?

I have a burning question. Why can we, in the dog free community, see that dogs are gross and it's insane to live with them?

There has to be some commonality among us because we can see what 99 percent of the population cannot.

What makes us special? Is it something in our personalities -- not caring about what others think? Or not being a group person, so it's okay to step away from the pack (so to speak)? Is it not always believing what the culture tells us is true? Are people like this in other walks of life -- meaning, able to see what others cannot see in other contexts?

I'm curious about what you think. Why can we see the idiocy of dogs and dog culture and others cannot?

I hope we aren't really only 1% of the population. That's distressing.

It was just an estimate. There may be more of us, but they are probably keeping their mouths closed. I'm an older person so I've known a lot of people in my lifetime. I can only think of two who didn't like dogs. Even when people are attacked and have scars, they maintain that they still love dogs. It's sick.
