WELLINGTON: A group of New Zealand vegans - people who do not eat any animal products - are shunning sex with meat eaters, claiming their bodies are made up of animal carcasses.
"When you are vegan or vegetarian, you are very aware that when people eat a meaty diet, they are kind of a graveyard for animals," said vegan Nichola Kriek. Another said: "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."
Annie Potts, co-director of the New Zealand Centre for Human and Animal Studies at Canterbury University, identified the people she called "vegansexuals" in her research study.
Vegans: The ones who go into Subway and order, “I’ll have a six inch ............... condiments on wheat.”
No meat? I guess oral sex is out.
Separated at birth? The broad on the right is HOT!
Don't think these vegan sexuals REALLY need to announce they're not sleeping with meat eaters. I mean, isn't that a real "Well... DUH..." kind of thing?
This vegan need never worry about me ever wishing to come within 100 miles of.....ahhhhh....her.
And neither does this one.
But this one would
ROTFLMAO! I’m also reminded of the oldie, “kissing a smoker is like sucking an ashtray.”
How many of the stars are vegans because its trendy in Hollywood to say you are vegan. Then when they get home their personal chef cooks them up a nice rack-o-lamb.
That's a real knee-slapper. Some meat is actually white such as chicken breast meat. That's due to the absence of myoglobin which is the oxygen carrying molecule in muscle. Chicken leg muscle, on the other hand, is composed primarily of "slow twitch fibers" and is a darker color due to abundant myoglobin.
And in the long run deary, it all comes down to molecules. Food which is ingested, be it animal or vegetable, is rapidly broken down into its molecular constituents which find their way to the mitochondria where they are used for the production of ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
So all this garbage about the bodies of meat eaters being made up of "animal carcasses" is hogwash concocted for the bereft. It's all about atoms; carbon, oxygen and hydrogen which are the principle components of organic molecules. There's a chain. CO2 in the atmosphere is converted into nutrients by plants by the process of photosynthesis. The plant nutrients are consumed by animals which into turn are consumed by humans who give out CO2 which is fixed by plants.
There's no telling where those carbon atoms in your body have been!! Think about that!!
Truth?
How about:
Animals on factory farms do not see the sun or get a breath of fresh air until they are prodded and crammed onto trucks for a nightmarish ride to the slaughterhouse, often through weather extremes and always without food or water. Many die during transport, and others are too sick or weak to walk off the truck after they reach the slaughterhouse. The animals who survive this hellish ordeal are hung upside-down and their throats are slit, often while they’re completely conscious. Many are still alive while they are skinned, hacked into pieces, or scalded in the de-feathering tanks. Learn more about the factory-farming industry. By switching to a vegetarian diet, you can save more than 100 animals a year from this misery.
If you are a meat eater, you sustain this cruelty with every greasy and fatty mouthful.
Enjoy!
Yes, I am politically quite conservative on most issues, and will vote for the same candidates as most Freepers. There really is not much of a difference in the parties regarding animal issues.
But don’t these vegans eat vegetables and fruits? These are living, growing organisms. How do they know that plant life doesn’t feel pain when you pluck and bite into it? How dare they sacrifice a living being for their own personal consumption needs?
I think it’s time for these hypocritical vegans to learn how to subsist on a healthy diet of rocks, dirt and sand. That way, they don’t have to worry about killing other forms of life merely to extend their own lives.
Are you referring to the Protein Slurpee that Monica was getting from Bubba
Color of meat?
Yes, fresh meat is red, due to blood.
Most people do not eat fresh meat...they buy their meat at Safeway, Krogers, Sams etc. This meat is putrified. It would be green except for the added chemicals.
It also is loaded with estrogen (to add fat flavor) and anti-biotics.
Enjoy your Big Mac! Who gives a darn anyway????!!
Well, gosh, there goes my dream of bearing the children of a carrot cruncher.
is there any animal protein in silicone? ; )
Some. For example Scarlett Johansson. In an interview she said when she gave up being a vegan/vegetarian and chomped down on a burger after a long long time, the feeling was akin to an orgasm ! Scarlett Johansson has a reputation in Hollywood of being a voracious meat eater, mostly off the dinner table.
However Jennifer Connelly is an ethical vegan and has been one for a long long time. So is Natalie Portman.
Go for it...but as a conservative, looking for an intimate partner who is vegan who won’t be a liberal tree hugger is going to be a tough act to follow.
Besides, putrid animal carcasses taste a hell of a lot better than tofu to me. ;-)
On the other hand.....Ma was probably right when she made me eat those lima beans and brussels sprouts.
