Why does PETA claim that "vegetarians make better lovers"?!
(this is a serious question)
Answers: What is this based on? Does it just mean they are more compassionate, or is there some physical evidence?
(this is a serious question)
I'm not necessarily agreeing or disagreeing with this claim, but this is what I read on the PETA website. I'm just answering the question you asked because most of the people here are giving you their opinion rather than an answer...
This is what PETA claims:
Every year, impotence, or "erectile dysfunction," affects millions of men across the world, with one study showing that as many as half of men over the age of 40 are impotent at least part of the time. Originally, it was thought that impotence was caused by anxiety, but according to the Erectile Dysfunction Institute, up to 90 percent of all cases of impotence are physical as opposed to psychological. That's right: High cholesterol, obesity, diabetes, prostate cancers or inflammations, and hormonal imbalances cause the vast majority of all cases of impotence. The good news is that medical science has proved that all of these conditions can be virtually eliminated (and even cured) with a low-fat vegan diet.
Viagra and other anti-impotence drugs may get you through the night, but a vegetarian diet can get you through your life. Numerous physicians and nutritionists agree that the best way to prevent artery blockage as well as multiple other conditions that cause impotence is to eat a diet high in fiber, including plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. These foods will scrub the plaque off the arterial walls to get your blood flowing and your love life going again in no time. For vegetarian recipes and information, please check out our vegetarian starter kit.
It's just a public relations campaign/slogan to inspire people to convert to the vegan lifestyle.
No, there is no factual basis. Its like "Kiss me, I'm Irish."
Because all the meat they ingest is not taken orally. ; )
compassionate & healthy
because there not weighed down by alot of meat ...
its just for publicity, it makes no sense
Maybe they say that becuase they are healthier than those who are not vegitarians.
this is based on the "fact" peta claims that meat causes impotence....if meat caused impotence then there would be lots of guys that couldn't 'perform'
there is no evidence of this, or any other peta claim....
My husband is a meat eater and he has told me he finds veg*n women the most...adventurous, let's say. I could say more, but not publicly.
Although I am vegetarian (moving toward veganism), I just don't believe in PETA's strategies.
I call them strategies, because that is exactly what they are.
PETA does what they can to shock and persuade people into not eating meat or wearing animal products.
The slogan you're talking about is just a marketing ploy. It's nothing more or nothing less.
I know a couple of vegetarians that just plain suck in the lover department. :)
a male vegetarians ejaculate tastes better. if a man eats meat his ejaculate has more of a salty taste to it; if he is vegetarian his ejaculate tastes sweeter. that is a proven fact but i have never heard of them being better lovers. i think somebody is pulling your chain.
It means that we are less likely to be impotent due to cholesterol-induced lack of blood flow.
Someone that is concerned with the the suffering of animals is more likely to be a selfless lover and be more concerned with the satisfaction of his mate.
I guess I can only really speak for myself.
I never leave my lady wanting more.
I think it's just a slightly more overt version of beer commercials with lots of chesty girls hanging around with the drinking guys. There they imply you will get laid if you drink their stuff. PETA is going the less subtle route of implying that if you are vegetarian, you will get more lovers and satisfy them more.
They may also be referring (as other people have mentioned) to the fact that vegetarians are known to be healthier, more compassionate people and would therefore have more stamina and be more selfless in bed.
Publicity.
Many men in different countries consume great portions of oysters and shellfish for the same reason.... they are supposed to be aphrodisiacs.
Others in Asian countries consume Tiger testicles and such idiotic stuff also to be better lovers.
To be a good lover or not has absolutely nothing to do with certain food ingest.
I respect PETA and all, all though I am no vegetarian, but sometimes they are quiet over the top.
normally if someone has good blood flow and eat a proper diet they're pretty much better at everything.
Because peta people are usually uber liberal and liberals are can be wild "wild" in bed.
When is the last time "hot sex" and "Republican" were mentioned in the same sentence?
Also, just a marketing gimick.
Also, so that guys can think that if they become vegan they can hook up with Pam Anderson who is a member of peta.
Eating meat clogs arteries slowing the blood flow to all major organs. Yes, that includes those special organs that get you going. Vegetarian diets contain very little to no clogging agents and reduce cholesterol to help blood flow resulting in more energy, stamina, and an over all better time.
They base it on their very low expectations and standards.
Well, our fluids taste better.
its a joke. lol
Because they're not oily and don't reek of dead carcasses?
I think it's about male sex endurance... But I don't know if it's true. But for me, my skin is a far lot softer.
Well, that is just foolishness imo
It's facetious.
Because they want to attach SEX to their cause, thus making it more appealing to not eat meat.
there is no basis to this, just a gimmic for others to follow.
The "P" in PETA should stand for propaganda, that's why.
"Someone that is concerned with the the suffering of animals is more likely to be a selfless lover and be more concerned with the satisfaction of his mate."----LOLOL----Do you honestly believe that, Krister??
I THINK THEY USE ANYTHING TO "HELP" THEIR CAUSE
It's PETA's attempt at a non-offensive means to drum up support for their cause. See, PETA thinks that vegetarians are superior to meat-eaters in every way (morally, ethically, physically, intellectually, etc.). Have you ever noticed how most vegetarians and vegans have that "holier-than-thou" attitude when it comes to meat-eaters? PETA is just trying to spin that vegetarian/vegan arrogance to its advantage in an attempt to make their cause "sexy." It's a load of hooey. Their slogan should be "Vegetarians make better elitists and bigots" instead.
Marketing skills
IT is the same as the TV adds for Viagra, Cillas,, Lavetra and even the one for women.
sex sells.
Especially after euthanizing the puppy's & kittens they can't locate or continue to feed....
because they are full of it. and i dont think that made that claim, that would make them idiots
