I am vegan, and fairly hardcore about it. I was vegetarian for 7 years, and now vegan for a year.

No, I will not freak out if I accidentally consume something animal-based. Nor will I preach or talk shit to meat-eaters.

I just prefer to eat that way, and I have found it makes me feel healthier... and after you read enough, you can't get certain shit out of your head... meaning that when I have considered consuming something dairy, for instance, I get a physical reaction and mental one.

I like cooking a lot. I like not being lazy and just eating the simple, mass processed foods that I can get at any of the hundreds of eateries near my house.

Yes, there are some times where my choices are limited when I go out and travel, but ultimately it makes me realize a very important point: it's just food--it isn't love or even money.

I can eat anything vegan and get nourishment, and whining about "oh, well I can't eat this or that, so I could never be vegan," would make me feel like one of the weak-minded masses.

All I need do is remember the obese people I knew when I was going through my hardcore workout phases. I would mention how I cut out fat and they would say things like "well I couldn't give up mayoinaisse" or "you need cream cheese." And those lazy fat fucks wonder why nobody desires them, but I digress...

(note: I am overweight, always have been--but it would A LOT worse if I just gave up and ate whatever).

However, I make no secret that I am in this business and do pornography. Yep - exploiting humans rather than animals. I feel I am balancing the scales a bit.

At least the girls who do this choose to get into it--but damn me and my conscious, because I occasionally am not nearly as shrewd as I could be with the desperate types who call me.
