Poll: Vegetarian, Vegan, or eat meat?

Well I think it's doing something good for the wrong reasons. For example when someone goes vegan or vegetarian to lose weight, once they lost the weight they're likely to go back. If they don't lose weight, then they'll give up the veggie diet too.

If they do do it for the right reasons, then it's weak willpower or resistance. For example my friend was a vegetarian for a year until her brother wanted the Christmas present of her eating meat, so she did. My brother (age 13) has been lacto-ovo vegetarian for 2 yrs and he doesn't plan on going back.

I was lacto-ovo veg for 2 yrs also, but went vegan 7 months ago and I don't plan on quitting either.

I'm not vegetarian, but when I say no cheese or milk on my food, people assume I'm a vegetarian. In this country, the American viewpoint is that lactose intolerance is a disease that needs to be diagnosed by biopsy. What utter nonsense.

If stopping dairy makes your kid feel better, there you go, lactose intolerance 'diagnosis' without the biopsy. It is a nonsense viewpoint that I always try to inform people the truth about: the truth that dairy is non-essential, the truth that consuming dairy has health risks, and the truth that lactose intolerance is not a ''disease'' but a perfectly normal state that occurs for most of us after we no longer need to consume species appropriate breast milk! I am in absolute disagreement with performing biopsies on a kid over lactose intolerance, and then forcing them to swallow down pills with milk that makes them sick, or to eat "just a little" dairy, for "their own good.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
