I'd show you the link, but it's locked.
Anyway, for those of you who are interested, here's a bunch of the links. To find them, I specifically searched for vegan + calcium, figuring that vegans would be the ones most interested in going against milk. (If you search for dairy-free, or milk-free, you just get sites for supplements, which is so unfair! And if you just search for calcium and sources, you get a lot of sites for iguanas.)
Link the first.
The second.
The third (COLORCODED)
This one discusses calcium in relation to other nutrients.
Milk is, despite the propaganda, not a very good source of calcium. It's also unnatural, in the literal sense of the word, for us to drink *any* milk after weaning (whenever *that's* supposed to happen!), and especially the milk of another species. These two facts alone should be enough to convince people that it's not necessary to drink milk in order to not DIE of weak bones, but... well, the power of propaganda is strong.
Now, consciously, I know that milk is kinda icky, and that curdled milk solids are very icky, and that moldy curdled milk solids are extremely icky, and that all dairy makes me feel bad, physically and otherwise... but I still love me my blue cheese. I'm not perfect. Don't call me out on it, 'k?
