For example, you wouldn't eat a dog or a cat, so why would you eat a pig? And please, don't argue that pigs are stupid, pigs are very intelligent animals. Pigs clearly display fear when they are to be slaughtered, as they start squealing and try to hide. It has also been observed that cows feel anguish when their children are taken away from them. A lot of people assume because my views are so strong on it that I support PETA. I do not, support PETA. I can't stand them. They fear monger people into vegetarianism and veganism, by doing things like yelling at Rihanna for wearing fur, handing out 'Unhappy Meals' outside of Macdonalds restaurants, and making games like Super Chick Sisters, which I'm amazed don't infringe any copyrights. So, I've been a strict vegetarian my whole life, and certainly have no plans to change it even if it means starving or freezing to death in the wilderness. Anyway, I've made my opinion clear enough, what are yours on the trade?

I'm lucky to have always been vegetarian, so I would never miss any meat products, and I've never worn animal furs, so I'd never miss any of those either. Oh god, the conditions the poor chickens are in if it isn't free range ><. My mother buys fake furs and leathers, but it is verry rare for her to buy it real, and when it is she'll usually take it back when she realizes. The cow being sacred in India rings a bell... there could just be people desperate enough for money, that they'll work with leather for it. And I imagine they don't slaughter the cow in India, and its just made in the factory's there.

Probably, and I've never bought fur before I think the only thing that would put me off of meat is if I got food poisoning My parents went veggie for a while before I was born, but they had to go back as my dad got quite ill and weak

I think a lot of people get the mass of their strength from eating meats, so when they go without the meat, a lot of people can lose a lot of weight and strength rapidly without it to support them.

Indeed, I admit I have cut down A LOT on meat, and I lost one stone in two months

Definatley more interesting than beans and as long as you pick the right things they're very good for you.

But because we have them as staple things in our diet, we all get quite a lot of our body fat from them, so she always has to cut down on them :c.
