WTF is with Vegans?
Can anyone explain this to me? My...former G/F or seperated G/F, was pissed at me because I didn't want anything to do with being Vegan. Now I see someone on facebook that I really don't know asking if they should be Vegan. What the hell is going on? Hell the only way I can really see their true beliefs being sustainable is by only eating food they grow. Do Vegans realize that most the time produce has to be picked by people who probably eat meat, so in order to sustain the growth of those vegetables those people are probably eating meat? From the wikipedia page, they can't eat honey, use wool or silk? WTH?
I can understand vegetarian's, but c'mon, any diet in which you need to take supplements doesn't sound very natural to me. I'm just failing to see the benefits of being a Vegan, and why would you jump straight from eating meat to Vegan and not to vegetarian first?
Thank you for all the answers that I'm sure will be very amusing (assuming anyone reads this).

Quit crying about your girlfriend leaving you. You're (allegedly) a man.

Because they are ex-'s
As in ex-meat eaters.
Just as bad as ex-smokers, ex-drinkers, ex-pagans, ex-fatties, etc. etc.

Seriously though...I'm willing to answer coherent questions.
Except for the Macbook Pro thing. I'm still using Microsoft Windows.

I have one regarding the use of wool, for example. It doesn't hurt the animal to sheer a sheep, so is it simply the 'use' of a domesticated animal? Is it the domestication that turns vegans away? I'm not familiar with the tenets of vegan-ism.

I'm okay with vegans, more meat for the rest of us.

There is nothing "natural" about it. The human brain didn't get that huge without protein and lots of it.

Exactly, the human race only started to evolve once we started eating meat.

Being a vegan should be on the 'stuffwhitepeoplelike' page. So self-righteous and boring.

Why would someone do this? What is the justification for veganism? The poor poor sheep get cold?
Seriously, other than "attention whore syndrome", what possible justification makes sense?
