Vegans shun sex with carnivores, says researcher

They say you are what you eat, and growing numbers of vegans are shunning sex with meat-eaters because they see them as "a graveyard for animals", a New Zealand researcher says.

These vegans not only refuse to eat meat or animal products but refuse to have sexual contact with meat-eaters because their bodies are made up of dead animals, the researcher was reported saying in The Press newspaper on Tuesday.

Annie Potts, co-director of the New Zealand Centre of Human and Animal Studies at New Zealand's Canterbury University, said she coined the term vegansexuals during her research.

She discovered the vegansexuals while interviewing 157 vegetarians and ethical consumers for a study.

"It's a whole new thing -- I have not come across it before," said Potts.

One vegan said while she found non-vegans attractive, but would not want to be physically close to them.

"I would not want to be intimate with someone whose body is literally made up from the bodies of others who have died for their sustenance," she said.

Um, her parents probably ate meat, so she is part “other” meat, herself. Sooooooooo stupid.

I see a man eating a green salad and I think he is just not manly.

Salad isn’t food. It’s what food eats.

Hey,whatever floats your boat.Among the many,many things that *I* like to eat...and eat frequently...are tomatoes,broccoli,corn,apples,bread products,lamb chops,lamb roast,sausage,beef,chicken.....

Human beings were clearly created to be omnivores and that's why so many vegetables,fruits,grains and the flesh of so many different types of animals taste so...GOOOOOOD!

True, but I would also think that it’s hard for a meat-eating man to be with a vegan woman. Going out to dinner, eating with the family, feeding the kids...all conflicts.

Idiots.

They don’t even realize what they are saying.

They would rather have sex with a vegetable.

Stunningly stupid.
