now i really am on the fence with leather. maybe i'm a hypocrite since i wear it. my hope is that they use the rest of the animal for meat when they take the skin for leather. does anyone know for sure?

Most cows that are slaughtered for beef are not used for leather and vise versa... they are bred for a specific purpose... The meat of a leather cow is to tough, and the leather from a beef cow will not be up to standards.
I love leather, and fur... I mean, who doesn't look good in white rabbit? and yes, I did have a pet rabbit, it's completely a different situation.
Fur is not tacky, it's incredibly warm, and luxurious feeling to the skin.
