Guest guest Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 === Questions about you === 1/ What is your name (or what do you like to be called)? Laura 2/ How old are you (a rough idea will do)? 19 3/ Do you know many vegans in real life? Nope - never even met another vegan (at least not to the best of my knowledge) 4/ How long have you been a vegan, and how long vegetarian before that? Vegan for about 6 months; before that I was veggie for about 6 years. 5/ Why did you become vegetarian/vegan (if you are neither it would be useful to explain why you joined this list)? As I learned more about the cruel methods used in intensive farming, I felt guilty supporting the industry by buying dairy products and by-products of the slaughter house. Also, I loathe the general idea that animals are here for our use - and that they have no intrinsic value or purpose apart from what money we can glean from their various severed body parts and secretions. I decided veganism was for me, and converted overnight. === Questions about your area === 6/ Whereabouts do you live? Originally Durahm, studying in Staffordshire, UK 7/ How good a place is it for vegans? Can't complain, but there aren't any veggie restaurants or food shops at all - have to rely on Sainsbury's for all my food. === Questions for fun === 8/ Which is your favourite type of bean? Kidney beans. 9/ What is your favourite country, or region, to visit? Scandinavia 10/ What types of film do you like? Not really interested in films, but I can watch anything relatively thought-provoking. 11/ What was the last meal you ate? Meal? ... I'm a student... 12/ Are you a morning, evening or night person? Evening, I think. === Questions for dull administrative purposes === 13/ How did you find out about this list? A search through groups === Other comments === 14/ If there is anything else you want to add to the above please feel free to do so. Peace =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Welcome to the group Laura! This is going to get confusing! I'll start going by my username for most things to avoid us getting mixed up. Anyway, nice to meet you. I'm a semi student (done my degree, now training to be a teacher). Good to have you here.
