I wont even become a vegetarian. Not for anybody! Even if the person is the love of my life I still wont become a vegetarian...I eat meat in almost every meal of the day...it tastes amazing and is in many ways good for you.

When i start getting short on protein I get vivid daydreams of me chasing down animals and killing them with my bare hands and then eating them on the spot. So no, I don't think I would ever become a vegan.

I'm aware that there are some means of getting a little bit of protein, otherwise all vegans would live about a year or two tops. Still, i've never seen a vegan that wasn't a scrawny little twig of a person, they tend to be just barely above crackwhores in body mass.

No, vegetarian is as far as I'd be willing to go. I'm a cook my best recipes require cream or milk, butter, honey, cheese, eggs, or meat. Hell, I put cheese, broth, & cream or buttermilk in mashed potatoes & my clam/shrimp/scallop chowder is a vegan's nightmare.

I think a better hypothetical question would be...

If there were no more animals left to eat would you be willing to eat Human meat?

Sure. The so-called vegetarianism is quite clearly the morally right food habit choice.

Vegan takes it step farther, and so, it can only be a step better.

nope, when I was a kid I didnt have much choice what to eat, when I got food served infront of me I ate it, didnt ask if it was ethically wrong, later on at the age of 15 one of my classmates turned vegan and she did make a big fuss about it, so I think this statement that I told her is pretty good: "If youre in a cage with 2 Lions, do you think those Lions will start to debate ethics when they get hungry?
This one's easy; no, they won't. The point, however, is that I'm sure we'd all prefer it if they did. The fact that the eating of humans is natural to many animals is not, in fact, an argument for Carnism but rather an argument for Vegetarianism in that we can recognize our personal displeasure with this 'natural' occurrence and understand that given the opportunity we would move ourselves away from a 'natural' situation if remaining would mean our deaths. Think of all the 'unnatural' things humans do to move themselves away from the cruelty of the animalistic cycle of life, yet many Carnists insist that animals must continue to fit into this 'natural' cycle. If the emotions of animals are even mildly similar to humans then it is easy to recognize that as, not only selfish, but also incredibly stupid.

Some Facts;

Humans do not need meat (in fact Vegetarians live an average of ten years longer than Carnists).
Animals suffer similarly to humans.
'Naturalism' is not a virtue (and should you wish to announce its necessity then feel free to strip off your clothes and head into the forest, good luck raising a family.)

Summary;

If not eating meat does not damage a person's health then to do so is unnecessary.
If animals suffer then to kill them is cruel.
Animals suffer and eating them is not a human health requirement therefore Carnism is an unnecessary cruelty.

I am already a vegetarian, and am thinking about a vegan lifestyle when I get older.
And no I don't brag about it to everyone, I don't make a big deal about it, no I am not feeble and weak. I have actually become more much athletic and muscle bound since turning. So there, you can build muscle mass without meat.

Eggplant will always taste like eggplant. But meat taste like murder and murder tastes pretty god *amn good. -Denis Leary-

Honestly, people should not limit themselves to one kind of lifestyle. The human is made to take in all sorts of food. Some things give us better kinds of nutrients than others. The key is MODERATION. The world we live in has us living in so much excess, that even people who have trouble staying fed, are 400lbs. Exercise helps to counteract this.

I was vegetarian for about five years, so I doubt it would be overly difficult. I'd have a hard time giving up honey, though.
