“meat-eaters don’t care about the rights of animals.” That’s accusatory, so I won’t apologize for my tone when you set the scene. Eating meat is not on the same level as recognizing women’s rights to equality, the issues are separate with their own nuances and forms of abuse. Someone who respects animals is no more likely to respect women than anyone else, at least in my experience. That’s what I mean by hijacking a conversation about one thing and making it about something else. I don’t want to go into my medical history suffice to say it was a long, shitty journey. I eat meat. I also donate to a no kill farm and a bird rescue and I was a vegan/vegetarian chef.

“meat-eaters don’t care about the rights of animals.” That’s accusatory, so I won’t apologize for my tone when you set the scene. I mean yeah, I stand by that. The absolute vast majority of people are eating animals because of taste pleasure, not because they have to. Obviously you weren’t addressed with that statement. Eating meat is not on the same level as recognizing women’s rights to equality I don’t know about “levels” but these issues are definitely intersectionally linked. I hope you don’t deny that? I don’t want to go into my medical history suffice to say it was a long, shitty journey. I eat meat. I also donate to a no kill farm and a bird rescue and I was a vegan/vegetarian chef. Huh, bummer. Would have loved to get the name of the condition or the mechanisms behind it. Not doubting you btw. genuinely interested.
