There are plenty of forms of vegatarian: lacto-vegetarians that eat dairy, ovo-vegetarians that eat eggs, lacto-ovo-vegetarians that eat both, vegans that eat neither (don't eat any animal products), raw-vegan that only eat raw foods, etc
If you believe that factory farmed dairy is just as cruel, then don't consume factory farmed dairy.
I don't believe its in my rational self-interest
Unless you count the environmental impact, it shouldn't be about your self-interest, but rather doing something that some see as cruel and unethical treatment of other living creatures.
(PS: I'm not vegetarian either, so I'm not attempting to change your opinion)
