The Definition of Veganism

Welcome!

Veganism is a way of living which excludes all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, the animal kingdom, and includes a reverence for life. It applies to the practice of living on the products of the plant kingdom to the exclusion of flesh, fish, fowl, eggs, honey [also bee pollen], animal milk and its derivatives, and encourages the use of alternatives for all commodities derived wholly or in part from animals.

If you're vegan, you're welcome here. This is our own little niche where we don't have to listen to anyone talk about the "joys" of raw dairy/meat/honey or any other animal product. Because we all know how hard it is to keep our mouths shut when someone's going on about how good Animal Product A is and you just want to snark at them - "Yeah, and how good do you think it is for the animals, hm?" Even I have trouble with that one.

So if you have questions on how to deal with someone or some even in your life, go on and ask. We're here, and we're willing to listen.
