Why are you Vegan?!


Question: I became a vegan, because I do not like the idea that a cow carries her baby for over 9 months. Than after giving birth, her child is taken away so quickly, so humans can have the milk versus the calf. Which later feed very poor lack foods so it can be a tender veal.

As a woman,(I am 31). When I have my child, I would never want any person, to take away my child. So I can not support a industry that uses that method dominantly. I understand there are farms that do not, but 90% (by tyson, cargrill, smithfield) of beef and dairy cows in this country are raised on intensive farming conditions.

Money is power. I use my money to support companies that are ethically inlined with my morals. I have a choice. I choose to not support an industry that cause so many cruelties. I also buy from companies that do not employee children in developing countries.

  • Because I can't think of any ethically defensible reason not to be.

    i'm not a vegetarian but i want to be. i hate thinking that in your turkey sandwich, its a chopped up turkey, or a burger is a chopped and mashed cow. my mom said that i shouldn't be one because meat helps you grow and has protein and stuff. i stopped eating burgers, and started eating veggie soy burgers, but at school i pack lunch and usually pack a turkey (deli) sandwich! sometimes i try to think that stuff like deli ham, and turkey ( not big thanksgiving turkey) doesn't look like meat. but i don't eat meat where you can see the whole animal esp the head
    so i don't like fish. or this grocery store that sell duck or something and they hang it up so you can see the poor duck hanging with the head and body ew
    hope this helps!

    Because it is the natural way to eat in there.
