I'm a vegan animal rights activist. You cannot claim to be for animal rights if you eat meat or dairy, it's as simple as that. I also act, dance, write, photograph, and play video games.

Nothing Says "Respect" Like Disrespect

Not only is that gross, but it's child abuse, teaching kids that pigs are not living beings, but slaves for their taste buds.

We Can Do Better

Good call on the Purity Myth. In the old days, when women were property, that's exactly how their value was calculated: on their virginity. Women are no longer property (at least not in the United States) but the latter hasn't changed much. It's time to evolve already.

It reminds me of Britney Spears and when she announced that she was waiting until marriage to lose hers. Obviously that was a publicity stunt, but it shouldn't have come to that. When it was found out that she wasn't a virgin I couldn't help but wonder how that was anyone's business but her own. And she was jumped on for being a "role model for young girls" and not a virgin. So what? I think Natalie Portman is a good role model and I'm sure she's not a virgin.

I'm not saying I like or admire Ms. Spears here, I just think that's a good example of how obsessed with the subject this culture really is.

A Corporate Calculation

Are you looking for a pat on the back? You won't be getting one from me.

You admit you eat dead animals, so you're still contributing and financing the torture and murder of hundreds of animals. Deny it all you want, but if you eat eggs, consume dairy, and/or eat meat, you're just as bad as those KFC suppliers.

A Corporate Calculation

I'd like to know why I see several people talking about PETA. This article has nothing to do with PETA. You are just trying to distract from the issue at hand. PETA is irrelevant here. The issue here is that people like the way eggs taste, but they don't want to look like the bad guys, so they'll shout loud and proud about how their eggs are "cage-free" so they can sleep better at night. It's all a crock.

Even cage-free eggs end with dead and abused chickens. The male chicks are ground up at birth because they won't make the egg farm any money. And the female chicks are condemned to an existence of servitude to greedy humans, turned into egg machines and their status as a sentient, sensitive, peaceful bird is thrown out the barn door during the 30 seconds per day that it's open.
