[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a vegan because I don't believe it is morally or ethically acceptable for me to consume/wear animals. The thought of an animals dying for my pleasure only is very upsetting to me. There is no need for me to eat meat, wear leather, drink milk, etc. Also, the meat and dairy industry is just awful. Animals truly are tortured. It's sickening. 
That being said, I realize my lifestyle is still considered "fringe." My husband eats meat, as does the rest of my family, and my 10 month old son is not vegan. I want people to make the choice for themselves and I do not force it on anyone. All I know is my personal choices allow me to sleep better at night. [/quote]

I'm not vegan, I'm vegetarian working my way toward veganism for those same reasons. I sort of stumbled across a documentary on Netflix a while back about the meat and dairy industry and after I watched it I was disgusted and appalled, and haven't eaten meat since. I do still eat eggs but they are from my sister in laws farm, her chickens roam freely. I'm working on losing the dairy. My kids and dh are meat eaters though, I don't judge and I won't force my choices upon them. It was a personal decision made by me for me.[/quote]
