'Vegansexuals' Do It With Each Other

Must be a slow news day. The good news is that all of you Annie Potts stalkers know what she has been doing in her post showbiz life. ;)

Vegans, a new study has found, are grossed out by sex with meat eaters, and some so-called "vegansexuals" only want to roll in the alfalfa with other super strict vegetarians.

A recent study conducted in New Zealand found that vegans — notoriously finicky eaters who don't eat meat or animal byproducts, like eggs and dairy — don't like the idea of swapping spit (or anything else) with those who have been dining on flesh.

Annie Potts, a researcher at the University of Canterbury's Centre for Human-Animal Studies, noted that vegans, particularly women, found sex with meat eaters disgusting.

Vegans, she told ABC News.com from New Zealand, don't like sex with carnivores, for personal reasons: "They're attracted to people with similar interests;" ideological reasons: "they see meat eaters' bodies as being composed of the lives of others;" and sexual reasons: "they didn't want to engage in intimate sex ... because of the smells and tastes of their body fluids."

Potts sampled 157 vegans, 120 of whom were female.

I am trying very hard not to lampoon the writer or people involved in this article. Can you imagine that someone might be attracted to someone else because they have similar interests.

This line in particular just grabs me "Vegans, she told ABC News.com from New Zealand, don't like sex with carnivores..." To be honest it makes me think of bestiality. Call me depraved, but referring to a person as a carnivore triggers images of animals and or dinosaurs.

Now this next comment isn't nice, but one of my good friends dated a woman who we referred to as a T-Rex. She was quite tall, had very short arms, big teeth and was quite loud. As a matter of fact I was once there when she became upset, you should have heard her roar. It was very Jurassic Park like.

As a service to readers who are single I want to go back to the article for a moment. If you are in need of companionship go find a nice member of PETA. It seems that they believe that sex can be used to gather converts. It is an unorthodox form of kiruv. Anyway, check this out.

While PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has long advocated people give up meat and go vegetarian, the animal rights group has its misgivings about vegans only sleeping with other vegans.

"Sex is a very effective form of outreach and activism," said Dan Shannon, a PETA spokesman, and 10-year veteran vegan, who thought meat eaters could be converted by their partners.

On the other hand, I have found that wooing carnivores can be quite pleasurable too. A nice steak dinner can go a long way.
