What are your thoughts on vegitarians?

MougyWolf · 36-40, M Best Comment
I can respect that. Truthfully, I wish I didn't support industrial farming. It's not the fact that an animal must die for me to eat meat is what bothers me. It's the fact that they had to live a dismal life for this. That does make me a bit sad.. but what can I say? I like eating meat.
I kind of draw the line at veganism though. Come on off it, carrots have feelings too!

but..

"Life feeds on life feeds on life. This is necessary."

I'm eating vegetarian to be nice to my vegan roomy. I occasionally eat meat when i'm out but honestly the longer i've gone without it the less i crave or want it.
Not eating it for a while also has given me a bit of headway in considering how unsustainable and cruel the meat industry is, and i've come to realise how many lies we were told as children about how ethical it is in terms of how it's portrayed, and how disconnected we are from the truth of these things. (not talking about small farms in villages but factory farming).

I totally believe that it's a natural thing to do and i don't judge anybody else of course as i was raised to eat meat, but i'm happy to not be part of the problem. If everyone was vegetarian would THAT be sustainable? probably not either, but not unknowingly supporting cruelty makes me feel a little better about my biological footprint.

I was one in high school and I’d like to eventually get back there but I don’t think I can live without fish 😥

@summersong you could always just try and eat fish and nothing else for a month and see how you go? I know loads of people that transitioned into dietary changes that way
@summersong I always thought vegetarians could eat fish and eggs 🤔
summersong · F
@Stark there are different kinds. Ovo lacto vegetarians eat eggs and dairy, pescetarians eat fish but no other meats, etc.

I think they should eat whatever they like. Not my business

Love it. More steak for me.
TheCaliforniaKid · 31-35, M
@GJOFJ3 lol ikr?
they love va salade lol
@TheCaliforniaKid for most of my life it was natural for me. It made me sick to smell it cooking. I eat chicken, fish and dairy product and occasional hamburger.
TheCaliforniaKid · 31-35, M
@Mondayschild yeah,it was natural for me too
They are as different as apples and car parts. I have compassion and due to that have entertained being a vegetarian. People come from all different angles though.
You're asking what I think of the people who classify themselves as vegetarians?
TheCaliforniaKid · 31-35, M
@TheCaliforniaKid I can understand their reasoning, whether they're doing it for personal beliefs, or purely dietary reasons... Meat does create a lot of waste, especially with factory-farming... As with everything, I don't condone the disparaging of humans based on habits, beliefs, and flaws. So I can't speak poorly of those who eat a McDonald's hamburger every day, even if it is an awful thing to do to oneself and the planet. I've had weak plenty of moments of eating fast-food, despite my awareness. Nobody's perfect. I don't mind vegetarians, as long as they're not hating other people for not-being vegetarian. Same with those who love steak. No need to talk shit, that's all. Live by example. Teach out of genuine love and care for others and the planet.

Most of the ones I've crossed paths with were judgy af with mind blowing irrational comparisons.
I'm trying to go back to more fruits and veggies instead of meat.
TheCaliforniaKid · 31-35, M

I respect their choice if they don't keep talking about it all the time
Flenflyys · 31-35, F
