So for thousands and thousands of years mankind has been eating meat, having sex and making babies. All of the sudden we are going to have problems if we don't go vegan. Fuck Peta.

I'm with TommySch, if you want no meat in your life that is fine with me and I don't care. But Peta "is" like the MAC crowd, a way too proud gay, or any console fanboi. They preach to you and shove their beliefs in your face constanly.

"I really hope that whoever buys this domain dedicates it to a beastiality porn site"

haha I've got a good laugh out of some comments here.

As for this article. Suddenly, I feel that there was some big change on PETA's director board. Damn, who the hell started this idea?! As some of you point out, Meat is essential for our body growth.

Please anyone correct me if wrong. But Vegetarian individuals DO eat some sort of veggie meat ( which is like a fake meat but with all the goods o real animal meat). Peta must understand the following: there's chain where living beings are eaten by other leaving beings. A shark is going to get a good snack outta you , it doesn't care about eating veggies...IT EATS MEAT. When we die we get eaten by worms and some other insects. This creatures do not share the not-eat-meat propaganda. That's just how nature is. PETA CAN"T CHANGE THAT !

My Point? I SHOULDN'T BE SAYING WHAT PETA MUST DO, BUT THIS VEGAN VIAGRA SCHEME IS TOTAL WASTE OF TIME AND SOMEHOW BLURS THE IMAGE OF SUCH ORGANIZATION AND I DO BELIEVE THERE ARE OTHER PRIORITIES TO TAKE CARE OF. (example, animal cruelty as someone pointed out)

Get your act up PETA, this looks like a serious waste of money. Specially when meat is necessary for our growth.

Athreex, you are correct. Vegetarians get protein from plant sources--soy, seeds & nuts, wheat, rice, etc. Some do eat eggs and dairy (those are not vegans, however) as well.

Some of you are throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Cutting off your noses to spite your faces. Bah, I don't have any others. In any case, whether you like PETA (BTW, people are animals too) or not, that doesn't change the fact that too much of certain types of foods is known-even to you--to be harmful to your heart health, which can lead to heart disease and stroke, as well as the dreaded E.D.

Some of you would rather get defensive about your chosen diet (why are you so defensive about something you think is fine for your health? You shouldn't be so easily shaken, fer cryin' out loud) and dump all over PETA, Alicia Silverstone and vegetarians in general.

Just something to think about: all the contestants they've ever had on The Biggest Loser--think they got there by eating a healthy diet, vegetarian or otherwise? Not a chance. But go ahead and eat your bacon wrapped bacon burger and down your bacon shake with your fries made in bacon grease just to show PETA who's boss. Maybe you'll get your 15 minutes of fame with Bob & Jillian screaming in your face one day.

I have *never* pushed my diet on anyone (btw, the guy who said all the vegetarians he's seen are sickly or pale or whatever it was--that tired myth gets trotted out every time this subject comes up--it's a lie and you know it. You wouldn't know a vegetarian if you were staring one in the face.

I *have* however gotten plenty of attitude from people about what I choose to eat, when I'm not even asking them to eat it. I had a waitress once give me a snarky "miss no-meat" when she brought my meal because I had the nerve to ask what was in the marinara sauce. That was all I did.
I've had my own father give me years of grief and rude remarks because he doesn't approve of what I eat for some reason. And yes, he eats plenty of meat and has tried to get me to switch back, while I've never tried to get him to change to my kind of food. Go figure.

Where I live and where I used to live there are NO ads for meat substitutes or vegetarian products, yet there are TONS of ads for burgers, sausage, chicken, pork, fish, etc. Who's fooling who here? It's the meat industry that's pushing hardest to get people to eat their product, not the other way around. But continue to live in that bubble where you tell yourself all vegetarians are trying to convert you. You end up sounding like homophobes who are convinced all gay people want to get in their pants.

I think PETA discriminates. Plants have feelings too and I don't see them abusing people for eating vegetables. I think should be considerate to all life and just starve to death.

I agree. Although I eat meat. I realize that there's diet to be made concerning the the balance between nutritional elements that our body must receive.

I have *never* pushed my diet on anyone (btw, the guy who said all the vegetarians he's seen are sickly or pale or whatever it was--that tired myth gets trotted out every time this subject comes up--it's a lie and you know it. You wouldn't know a vegetarian if you were staring one in the face.

Haha that folk's comment made me laugh. But it is a stereotype and it is not true. I have vegetarian friends. I didn't know until they told me.

True. I barely see any vegetarian based ads. Only a couple of Health Food Store promotes them ( at least in my country).

Good post. I understand your explanation, considering some comments0 have gone in the off-topic about be a vegetarians or meat-eater. I do eat meat, but I fully respect people with any other lifestyle such as vegetarian eating habit. Hell, it is widely accepted and even in my country, almost any restaurant have some vegetarian dish and veggie burgers.

going back. All i ever wanted to state was:

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) + sex.com + Vegan Viagra + Silverstone Ad ....How the hell can all of these fit in one sentence? LoL

[citation][nom]Sabiancym[/nom]As liberal as I am, I still think Peta is full of douchebags. They really should just stick with reducing animal cruelty in and out of slaughterhouses instead of outright saying eating meat is wrong.Sure I don't want animals to suffer, but I also understand evolution. We evolved eating meat, and need it in our diet.Darwin ftw.[/citation]

But don't you know that there are alternatives to eating meat? Like bean curd tofu...

Mmm, now doesn't that sound tastier than a sizzling steak?

Some people can easily and healthily become vegans. Other cannot.
So, unless you want many people to die or suffer, 100% of our society CANNOT become vegans at this time.
I would like to have more salads in my diet however. I eat too much meat actually.
