[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious why so many people are opposed to veganism and not vegetarianism.  Do you find that vegans tend to be more self-righteous about their views?[/quote]

I do find that many Vegans tend to be more self righteous and vocal about all of their opinions.

"Of COURSE we didn't vaccinate or circumcise Micah and we don't do screen time and he only plays with wood toys..."

I find that Veganism is a very socially isolating choice and for a certain type of person a petulant brand of attention seeking.  Think of a 16 year old girl saying, "I will ONLY wear pleather because cows DIED to make those shoes" or "I don't eat anything with a FACE!" (and posting this on instagram with an accompanying lamb picture).

I also have known many eating disordered women that hide out in Veganism and then obsessively quiz the waiter at the restaurant "Are you sure there is absoloutely no butter in the sautéed kale platter?

I just find it kind exhausting to spend time with someone who must devote so much energy to controlling their intake.  Meanwhile, they go home and eat an entire tub of soy ice cream later.[/quote]
Pretty funny post --sums it up perfectly.[/quote]
