Title: Vegetarians
Post by: Beatnory on June 18, 2012, 02:38:47 PM
I was just wondering of there where any vegetarians here on this forum.
If there is can you tell why you are a vegetarians? or why you aren't one.

purely out of curiosity  :)

I'm not a vegetarian, because I like the taste of meat too much...
I would die if I was a vegetarian :P

So yeah, most dragons are carnivorous, so is it strange that I'm a vegetarian?  :|

Anyways, reason why I'm vegetarian is because, for some reason, I can't stand the taste of meat and because the thought of eating a dead animal kind of grosses me out for some reason...yeah I know I'm weird, but it is what it is  XD

My fursona, Jovi, is a vegetarian. I however am not. I tried to be, but I enjoy the taste of steak too much to give it up. I can back it up with my secondary fursona being a carnivore.

Being a vegetarian is a MISSED STEAK. Get it? God, I'm on fire tonight!
(Again, a horrible and rather awkward silence) :P

Non-vegetarian chiming in here! I enjoy meat myself  XD  However, I have given vegetarianism some thought. It seems like a pretty healthy alternative and I kind of admire the moral bonus of being able to say that nothing with a face is on my diet. Plus I really do not like how some meat processors treat the animals used to make the meat  :/

That's gonna sound weird.

Somehow, I worship physical strenght and in my mind "vegetarian" is associated with "weak", even though I know it's not that simple...  :S
Subconscious.

I saw a thing that said Vegetarian is an old African word for "Bad Hunter"
however I'm thinking this isn't true as it doesn't have enough "african" sounds in it
and the etymology doesn't seem to say such a thing.

I'm a Vegetarian, born and raised! Never eaten meat my entire life, so why start now? Plus I think it's kind of gross to eat dead stuff. Every time I see meat I just think: 'Corpse!'

I do eat meat. but then meat where the animals have had an good/better life.
not that they are crammed into a small space. not that they eat crap to become bigger.

I'm with Sopherz on that one. I can stand to eat so few vegetables, I would be dead or sick in less than a month. XD And besides, vegetation does not ever fill me, and I can only stand to eat so much of it in one sitting.

I've seen all ranges of "anti meat" videos, some horrible, some legitimate. And none yet have convinced me I should stop eating meat. But I do think some of the methods of acquiring it are overboard, outright cruel and wrong.

But without meat; I am nothing more than a sickly, starving dragon. D:

I seem to remember seeing an article where two people wished to be veggies but couldn't because of their health conditions, so they decided to breed rabbits instead. That way they had healthy, humane meat and knew they had good lives before they were slaughtered.

As much as I enjoy a good salad, and pasta, and fish, and even tofu when done right, I doubt I could ever be a veggie.
