An obvious difference is allowing women to work or vote, while resisted because it is threatening to established male social privilege, materially enriches the society by enlisting more of those capable to actually contribute the capability, and, as demonstrated during the two world wars, makes the society more robust and capable of dealing with extreme stress. So even the selfish who would protect male privilege knowns it is not all a net loss to them if women were to work and vote.
Not so with the ability to ignore animal suffering to adopt animals to our needs.
You have a very strange moral philosophy and an even stranger commitment to it. Right and wrong isn’t determined by its benefit to humanity.
