Re: people that are vegetarian
Look harder. Some studies have found they vibrate at a certain frequency in response to certian stimuli, if I remember correctly. Hippies have interpreted this as "screaming."
You're awfully demanding. |

Re: people that are vegetarian
the responses in this thread, taken as a whole, describe why many vegetarians are reluctant to speak about reasons why they choose to not eat meat. the responses here are not particular to OOT. they're pretty much the way the general public responds to vegetarianism.

Re: people that are vegetarian
generally the negative responses I get are either incredulous , i.e. "if you don't eat meat then what on earth do you eat? just tofu?", or argumentative "well do you not use other animal products then? you know beer is fined with fish bladders, right?" and other such nonsense.
I just usually explain my reasons aren't particularly moral and I think everyone (including me) should be able to eat whatever the hell they want. |

Re: people that are vegetarian
I was vegetarian (borderline vegan, but I was lazy about that sometimes) for four years, but it was for health reasons, not any moral reasons. I lived with this buddhist girl (from china, I'm anti-hippy) and she was pretty strict about her diet. Since I mostly ate with her, I got used to her diet. I felt much, much better once I cut meat and dairy out of my diet. Like, insanely better.
I eat meat (and sometimes dairy) these days, mostly because there arose a lot of situations where it was inconvenient to be vegan, and while I was willing to break my diet on those occaisons, I'd get violently ill a large portion of the time. I'm still mostly vegan but I try to have meat at least twice a week and dairy once, just so my body remains accustomed to it. I mostly stick to fish for the meat, but I do have steak maybe once a month. |
