" The author, Jeffrey Masson, was once the head of Sigmund Freud Archives, and had once said that Freud covered cases of child abuse for the purpose of backing his "seduction" theory -- that the patients had wanted to be seduced as children. Ever since, Jeffrey Masson has been revealing cases of abuse, including those featured in studies and animal abuse by man (Cohu, 2004)
He argues that if man can stop capital sentences, wife battering, and slavery, then surely he can stop exploiting farm animals (Masson, 2003). While recognizing the intellectual way, he presents his facts; there is a need for one to look deeper into his logic (Jaine, 2004)
Thus, according to his argument, domesticated animals are the saddest or suffer the most compared to wild ones. He gives an example to back his argument when he says that Chickens would love to nestle at night with friends and that they can't do this by being locked in a cage every night (Masson, 2003)
