What do you think about....?
A survey in New Zealand identified "vegansexuals."
Definition: No sex with carnivores. Sample quotes from respondents:
1) "I would not want to be intimate with someone whose body is literally made up from the bodies of others who have died for their sustenance. Non-vegetarian bodies smell different to me—they are, after all, literally sustained through carcasses."
2) "I believe we are what we consume so I really struggle with bodily fluids, especially sexually."
3) "I couldn't think of kissing lips that allow dead animal pieces to pass between them."
4) "When you are vegan or vegetarian, you are very aware that when people eat a meaty diet, they are kind of a graveyard for animals."
Answers:
I can't agree with the first quote. I can't say meat eaters really smell differently unless you're talking about their breath or they've just walked out of a steak house. But I agree with how they feel about not wanting to be intimate with an omnivore. If I were to date someone, I'd just want them to have the same values as me. Most people would feel the same way, whether it's about being vegan, religion, or how you look at life in general.
