Why are you a Vegan instead of a meat eater? Are you a Vegan and why?
Do you eat meat and why? ... "I'm trying to find myself amongst these Solar Babies. So wait until I do then I'll tell you where we're going." | |

I'm a pesco-vegetarian, but you didn't ask why on that. So I'm not going to answer. That's that! Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.

I can't talk...I own many leather coats. I love leather. I love the smell of it. Can't say I eat much meat though. There was a time when I was a full fledge Vegan but something happened...tryna find that something again. I don't own any fur though.  "I'm trying to find myself amongst these Solar Babies.

i'm a vegetarian but not a vegan. i try not to consume a whole lot of eggs and dairy - i keep soy milk in my fridge and i usually don't cook a lot of stuff that requires eggs or milk - but there's no way i could give up stuff like ice cream or yogurt or half and half in my coffee. | |

it's really not that hard... a dairy cow in today's factory farm is as miserable as a beef cow, in my mind... but i believe that any level of awareness is better than nothing!
and really, it's a whole lot easier nowadays to be a vegan... so many food choices and alternative clothing materials  | |

Because I think that the treatment of animals on today's typical "farms" is unethical.
And, on a related note, because it makes me happy to reduce my contribution to the suffering of innocent individuals who are often overlooked by society. | |

We are much the same in this, then. Though I've tried to give up most icecream. Sometimes, banana splits must be consumed. Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.

But they stuff puts weight on me...I mean heavy weight. I have to stay away from dairy...guess why?  "I'm trying to find myself amongst these Solar Babies. So wait until I do then I'll tell you where we're going." | |

and really, it's a whole lot easier nowadays to be a vegan... so many food choices and alternative clothing materials i agree. but i also think that everyone who contends with the idea of being ethically aware has to come to a point where they draw a line between what adjustments and commitments they're willing to make, and to what extent a person has to reconcile the simple fact that there are some commitments that are unrealistic for some folks, for whatever personal reason. i wish i still had the 'bloom county' comic strips where milo gets into animal rights and keeps getting more and more involved and into anti-cruelty, until he's gotten to a point where he's standing on his tip-toes on a rock, starving himself and praying for the micro-organisms he's crushing to death with his toes. i know there are options out there to eggs and dairy. i use a lot of 'em, and believe me - there's SO much dairy stuff that's not in my refrigerator anymore that used to be staples of my diet. i've been able to live without meat for almost 20 years - no problem. but i've never been able to make that same level of commitment with dairy and eggs. i'd like to someday, and maybe i will. when i'm ready.  | |

I am NOT a vegan. I a can't help but think of all those helpless fruits and veggies dangling helplessly to a tree or firmly rooted in the ground unable to run. At least animals stand a fighting chance.

thank you, judy tenuta. She said, "I wouldn't sleep with you if you were the last man on earth" I said, "Well, if I was the last man on earth, ya wouldn't even be aloud in line." --Emo Phillips | |
