    Default How large part of your life have you been feeling/thinking like a vegan?

    This isn't meant in a very serious way, so I place it here in the "More Polls" section. I'll explain more later about why I think such a poll still is kind of interesting.


    For how long have you agreed with being vegan - that is, agreeing with veganism but not necessarily lived as a vegan?

    Example: You are 34 years old. You figure out that you agreed in being a vegan since when you were 27. So you have been feeling/thinking like a vegan viewpoints for roughly 7 years. Again: don't get too serious about this...

    To get the result in %, do this:

    Take your 'vegan age' (7 in this example) and divide it by your age (34 in the example), and multiply the number you get by 100.

    7/35*100= 21 (rounded), so you have been thinking/feeling like a vegan for circa 21% of your lifetime up to now.






    (Pardon my English, as always).

    I will not eat anything that walks, swims, flies, runs, skips, hops or crawls.

    About half my life? Since I found out about it when I was 10, then I decided it was something I wanted to work towards.

    I have no idea.

    I went vegan in an afternoon when I was 17, and I was certainly *not* a vegan that morning.

    Then again, as an 8yo, I refused to eat meat until I knew the name of the animal that was on my plate... and when I found out the name (usually just made up by my folks), I refused the food even more. But by the time I was 13yo, I was winning quarter-pound McDonalds burger eating contests with sporting teammates. But that experience as a child was the seed to my veganism many years later.

    So if it is the former: I am 32yo now. I was 17 (when I went vegan). That is 46.875% of my life as a full-fledged vegan actually doing it.
    or... if it is the later. I am 32 now. I was 8yo when I started connecting food to animals. That means 75% of my life.
    context is everything

    I've been vegan for 18% of my life. But I was very interested in vegetarianism as a child and young teen (didn't know about veganism then). I made the connection about the animals being food early on, but never really applied. But when I decided to go fully vegetarian at age 17, I found out about veganism, and decided being vegan was ultimately better.
    Peace, love, and happiness.
