Question about vegan preferences?!
Question about vegan preferences?
I was listening to Dr Dean Edell this afternoon, and he was talking about a survey taken regarding vegans' sexual preferences. According to the survey, many vegans will not date or sleep with meat-eaters as they consider it disgusting and distasteful to even kiss a non-vegan. Some even refuse to associate with non-vegans. I find this an extreme point of view. I was curious to know how vegans here feel about this and why. I am sincerely interested in your opinions.

Thanks everyone for your input. I guess I can understand why a vegan would feel this way. It's much easier to have a relationship with someone who shares your values. I appreciate your honesty.
