I might be dietary Thai... :)
I've gotten really into animality and applied ethics, ecofeminism, and whole new areas of liberation philosophy and radical democracy. I'm finding my career niche, which I thought would never, ever...
Russ, as much as I hate to admit it, I'm in a very similar boat as you. I simply can't afford to buy most vegan soaps and detergents. I canfind them, but the laundrey detergent is literally 4 times...
It's incredibly easy to be vegan in the Philadelphia area. Alot of churches, but they tend to be the gorgeous kind that add to the architectural decor of the city. I live just outside the center...
This is why analogies rule. That is wonderfully, wonderfully illustrative. Thank you so much - I'm totally going to use that the next time someone gives me lip about not eating honey!
That Veganism *can* cause heart attacks. I needed laundrey detergent and the cheapest one that was animal friendly/cruelty free was $10!!! For a really small amount! That's more than 5 times the...
Yeah, the essentialist argument is one that's really pokey... a woman I work with seems to be on a campaign to get me to tell her it's ok to eat meat. Her biggest selling point is that "We're...
I have in the past, but it's not a good thing for me. I get OCD about the whole thing and my calories keep getting less and less until someone has to snap me out of it. But ah... it could be...
Did the monkey wash his hands first?
So, I don't mean to drag up a dead thread, but I went into the body shoppe the other day, and the sales girl assured me that everything in the store was "vegetarian" and that they were coming up with...
Honestly? I'm getting WAY more protein now, just because for the first time in my life, I'm nutritionally conscious about what I'm putting in my mouth. I haven't lost any weight, but I feel cleaner...
Thanks Roxy - and I know it's worth it. The biggest thing for me is changing my mindset totally, and not just setting up labels and limitations for myself (I have compulsive issues and I know what...
Great points, all of you - my brain is a bit too fried from constant grad schoolness to reply in kind, but I really appreciate all of the thoughts you put forth, I've so enjoyed reading them and...
I just use water, and I rub them like mad. I buy from a farmers market, so much conern is people breathing on them and touching them and putting them back. Ick. Other people germs, ew...
I totally agree, and your analysis is really strong! I just call dietary vegans "strict vegetarians" and then use plain old "vegetarian" for lacto-ovo people.
That's just what I've always...
All these "Christians" who think that animals are just machines with no souls apparantly aren't up their theology... animals have souls, generally, just not "rational" souls. Which, given the...
Totally. Then again, I don't buy grocery produce - I'm strictly a farmers market/local farm wholesale kind of gal. so my comparison might be different. Unfortunately it's less that I'm...
Well, there are a *few* ways to cheat that aren't totally junky, so you can reduce the number of times you have to cook.
First of all - fruit is the easiset breakfast in the world. So is cereal....
The problem I had with the article was the assumption that the domination of nature (and then likewise, all those who have been oppressed, women, ethnicities, etc.) is something to proud of, as if...
You mean like, because someone convinced her how silly it was to care assume animals were worthy of our compassion, she now feels compelled to make sure people know just how silly it is to...
Hi everyone. I had a former Vegetarian of 17 years, Vegan of two years, and now proud meat eater question my decision to elminate animal product. I don't usually get angry at this when people ask,...
I just want to say that I found what you said here, and in the post prior to this, extremely helpful. I'm transitioning to veganism myself, but I can't go cold tofu, and the idea of not being able to...
That's a great list! I'm going to print that and stick it on my refridgerator, I think.
