Open Thread: Does Feminism Require Veganism?

David Thompson finds another feminist asking the big questions.

Thompson fisks the article, amusingly.

Does feminism require vegetarianism? This is something I am asked about often.

Often. Because,

Vegetarians and vegans sometimes go around telling meat-eaters whether their eating habits are consistent with their feminist beliefs.

Imagine the parties. The time must fly.

Open thread.

37 Posted on the EMT, but hey, it seems to go perfectly with this thread...


Saw "The Witch" yesterday.


The lovely and cultured Mrs naturalfake is a fan of horror movies. Not bloody, gory ones but psychological, creepy type horror movies and thought "The Witch" looked like a good one.

The trailer's looked too artsy-fartsy and a few of the reviews I'd seen talked about the film taking on "teh patriarchy!!111!!!!" so while i wasn't hot on the idea, we went.


I have to say "The Witch" was an excellent movie that hooked me right at the beginning.

The reviews about the "patriarchy' nonsense are way way way off course.

The trick to understanding the movie is in the subtitle A New England Folktale and the mention of folktales and historical records used in the making of the script at the beginning of the end credits.

This is not a horror movie for modern times so much as it is a horror movie for our Pilgrim Forefathers and Mothers.

It plays out like a folktale told to children and teenagers-

a very grim Grimm's Fairytale, if you will with a Calvinist twist.

and with the same message as a folktale- don't go alone into the woods. Be aware at all times. Live a good and Godly life. There are dangers to self and soul.


No spoilers because the tale is very simple, but the turn of events is quite creepy with shocking (though not particularly gory visuals) punctuating what is happening.

The story itself is basic tragedy - a father is too proud to accept the wisdom and sober council of town fathers and so takes his family into the woods to live alone.

There in the woods Satan and the Witch work to destroy the family. Corruption comes in both the most and least obvious ways.

His sin of pride in his own Godliness brings nemesis.

The story contains some neat stuff which I'd like to talk about but won't so as not to spoil the experience for those who wish to go.


A few quick points:

1) I was never bored at all. But the movie does have a quiet, sober pace- very much like "The Shining" until all hell breaks loose.

2) The Calvinist worldview is strange to modern ears and I think this confused a lot of the critics.

It is used, I think, to amp up the mystery aspect for the Pilgrims- i.e.. who is the witch, who among them is corrupt, who is elect and who damned by predestination.

3) Incredible performances by all the actors. Really just great.


If this sounds like your kind of thing.

Check it out.

46 The main argument you will likely hear in favour of feminist vegetarianism is that of linked oppression. Basically the idea is that women are consistently objectified in a morally problematic way that is very similar to the way animals are objectified.

50 From last night's ONT, Miss Transgender UK was stripped of her title when she was found to be wearing male underwear one time. This is an unspeakable act, and he/she/it (just heshit for short) and heshit was declared "just a drag queen".

This is all fits in the SJW hierarchy. Some feminists declare you must be vegan to be real womym. Others side with the trannies. So, maybe vaginism can have meat, depending on who you ask. But no drag queens, apparently.

120 Chicken salad should certainly be against mosaic law or at least against the building code. No matter how attractive it looks, chicken salad will not stand up to even moderate use as a floor material the way that tial will and after a few weeks, the smell will drive you out of the house.

Take my advice and use tile for your mosaic floor, not chicken salad.

126 One of my sons dated a girl who was a vegan. Said she could never eat meat again after she found out that it is digested by way of maggots in your stomach. Yes, she said maggots. And she just couldn't handle the thought of all those maggots in her stomach. Yes, maggots in her stomach.

Picked my jaw off the floor and asked her where she heard such a thing (figuring it was on the internet.) Said one of her instructors told her that in nursing school.

I don't doubt that some a-hole, feminist, SJW teacher told the class that because she was of the opinion that everyone must be vegan! And what better way to do it than to have an authority figure explain a very unique digestive process that meat-eaters suffer.

244 (Generic NOT addressed to anyone in particular. And yes, I have pushed the meds, pulled the trigger, and cut the artery.)

The right thing to do for sick 'pets' is to love them like there's no tomorrow, and cultivate you vet so that when the time comes - and it will - they will come to your house and Give Grace to your friend, at home, unterrified.

There are worse things than dying.

Or, learn to do so yourself. This may be the greatest gift you can give, but it's not for everyone.

In any case, Give Grace when it's time. Making them linger in pain and loss of dignity may serve your weakness but it costs them. Don't do it.

I would too... as long as the kittah is not suffering, let him enjoy his life. As the FeLV virus is catching through saliva and blood (but can only be spread to other cats), I would separate him from the other cat though. You can keep him healthier by strictly controlling parasites by treating for fleas and tick regularly and making sure he eats healthy (maybe make your own meat heavy food).

287 Not trying to start anything, but it seems to me that there are more dog people who hate cats than cat people who hate dogs.

I don't think there are all that many people who hate dogs, really. I think they're mostly people who were bitten when they were young children.

In fact, I actually did get bitten by my uncle's dog when I was about eight years old. But I immediately realized it was because I bothered her while she was eating, so it was my own fault. A few days later when my arm turned red and swelled up and my parents took me to the hospital, I finally came clean about what happened. I hadn't said anything about it because I didn't want to get the dog in trouble.

My dad always hated cats, and I never could get a straight answer about why that was. Obviously, I never had cats growing up, but I'd see them now and then outside, and one time a classmate showed me a litter of kittens. I never did understand what all the fuss was about. They seemed perfectly OK to me.

So after the family dog died when I was 15, I went a couple of decades without any pets. Then when I was 42, I was living in an apartment and fell head over heels in love with my neighbor's cat. She was an outdoor cat, and eventually had a litter. I adopted two of the kittens, and now I can't imagine life without cats.

But I still like dogs, too.

289 I would like to see any vegetarian or vegan get a full 2000 calories without using any processed or fast carb foods. You know, no bread, pasta, potatoes, sugars, etc.

You're not going to be able to do it. If you believe it's these fast carbs that are making us diabetic lard asses, which I've become convinced, then H. Sapiens ain't Darwinized for a vegetarian diet. We need meat for high caloric density foods. This is fat and protein. We are not evolved to get a significant number of calories from carbs.

You know those plant eaters? They can digest the hell of "fiber" and stuff that we can't. IOW, they can get a lot more energy out of natural plants.

For us to eat plants a lot, we had to invent agriculture.

I have a really easy cat food that I make for our cats (one of them as a kitten had coccidia and it left him with long term digestive issues). Twice a month I mix up ground chicken thighs and pure pack pumpkin (two lbs of chicken to each 32 oz can of pumpkin), cook it and then mix in ground egg shells for calcium. It is very easy on the digestive system and might help him put on some weight.

I got the idea for the chicken and pumpkin from a friend who used to work at the SPCA shelter; It was what they fed the sick cats while they were sick. I added the calcium because this is a long term diet for my kittahs (as in, its the only thing they eat) and I didn't want their bones to suffer.


One good side effect of the food is their poop really doesn't stink. We change the litter boxes once a week but the only smell is the ammonia smell from their pee.

363 Being vegetarian or vegan involves a kind of privilege, and we do not want to make the moral ideal one that can only be accessed by those already privileged in society.

I always respect a philosophy which precedes not so much from first principles when reasoning, but considers inclusivity paramount.

I mean, we'd make robbery wrong, but robbery is more accessible to, that is to say accessed by...well, scratch that one, the data on robbery is racist, the other one thing that is paramount.

Let's consider abortion. We would consider allowing abortion, but those more privileged among us have more access to abortion, so it can't be allowed. Morally.

Oh but wait. We'll use the coercive power of the government to extract wealth from the taxpayer and give it to those who want abortions. Back on the menu!

373 Two explorers are lost in the desert. They've been wandering around aimlessly for days. They are close to just lying down and waiting for the inevitable, when all of a sudden one of them sees something ahead in the distance.

He shouts, "A bacon tree, a bacon tree!" and rushes off towards it as fast as his weakened body will allow.
The second explorer follows him. With renewed strength, they struggle on through the dunes until at last they get near to the tree. They can see it's full of every kind of pig meat you can imagine - fried bacon, back bacon, smoked bacon and more.

The first explorer shouts, "We're saved, we're saved!"

The second explorer says, "Wait - are you sure it's not just a mirage? We are in the desert after all."

The first explorer says, "Just smell that bacon - have you ever heard of a mirage that smelled of bacon?"
And so he runs to the tree with the second explorer far behind.

Just as he gets near it, there's a burst of machine gun fire and the first explorer falls to the ground, mortally wounded.

With his last breath, he warns the second explorer, "Get back! It's not a bacon tree. It's a hambush!"

Posted by: Gregv61 at February 22, 2016 09:41 PM (6SFoW)


I like to consume the same kind of animal you do, but some people are still of the impression that chickens and fish are edible too. Not a lot of castrated males in those departments.

But, I do think we should encourage the SJW crowd to invest themselves in the anti-castration movement. Specifically, they should attempt to form human shields inside the pens of the pre-castration males.

Roomie brought female doggeh home, not housebroken, and left my never-owned-a-dog-before son in charge. Son bought a book about housebreaking and training dogs, and that damned dog is trained to obey the Marine Corps knife hand and word commands. She's amazing and so sweet and shy.

I'm guessing most of you, being normal and all, have no idea how pervasive the Butt-hurt Totalitarianism Community is today.

If you read the youtube comments, you'll get an idea, fast, though. Those people are terrible. It is so bad that most youtubers (the video posters) are now trained to mention a variety of disclaimers in each of their vids to avoid offending anyone, anyone at all.

It is so bad that if, for example, someone is incidentally eating a burger in a video or mentions burgers they issue an apology in case it offends anyone. Or if you do something (an activity) or happen to like a certain product, you MUST say that the particular way you perform the activity or that the product you like is not for everyone and it's okay if others do it differently.

The point is that every single detail in a video is under a microscope at youtube. It's insane and frightening. The larger point is that youtube is merely a microcosm of what's becoming pervasive in our culture from the ever-growing Butt-hurt Totalitarianism Community.

Veganism is a political ideology which includes strict guidelines, as if theology-based, on one's diet.

The fact is that if you drop dead in the living room your dog will wait over your body, defend it and starve to death waiting for you to dome to. Your cute, little, cuddly cat will give you about a day and then start eating you.

480 An unfortunate guy loses both of his ears in an accident.

The surgeon tells him there are no human transplant ears available but they have one dog's ear and one pig's ear they can transplant if he wants.

The guy isn't very happy about this but soon realizes it's better than being deaf, so he agrees to go ahead with the operation.

A month later, he goes back to the hospital for a check up and the surgeon asks him how he is getting on with his new ears.

The guy says, "Well, the dog ear is fantastic - I can hear for miles and no-one ever talks behind my back any more."

The surgeon asks, "Great! And what about the pig's ear?"

The guy says, "Well to be honest, it's not so good. I seem to be getting a lot of crackling in it."

Cato, what a great hash.

It's not only a stupid time, it's not much fun. (Whereas 70's frat parties were also stupid, but great fun.)

I mean, what a bunch of pinch-faced little scolds and busybodies. They're like a pack of Victorian prudes, with their tsk-tsking and angry finger shaking.

They're young (mostly) but they don't have what should be the joy of youth. They're too focused on their victim status and on getting White Males to check their privilege to have any of the carefree attitude of youth. I am so glad I am not part of this generation.

And people are quaking in fear of these killjoys, instead of laughing them off the face of the planet. That's the mystery. Why is everyone from the twitter twits to university presidents to celebs folding and pleading for mercy from these vindictive clowns instead of giving them the finger and saying, "F you, you ridiculous neurotic bozos?"

Posted by: fluffy at February 22, 2016 09:23 PM (AfsKp)"

A cat bit me on the base of wrist and when it did not heal, I went to the doctor who put me in the hospital for a week of IV antibiotics. Years later I have pretty much constant pain in my thumb which may be from septic arthritis. When the doctor ordered me to the hospital, she said that before penicillin the treatment for a cat bite like that would have been to amputate my arm at the elbow before the infection spread. Cats, apparently have two types of bacteria in their mouths, both cause nasty infections. They lick their claws which keep them infected with the bacteria which explains why people who have cats almost always have scratches on their arms which turn red from infection. The doctor told me that cat bites are more dangerous than rattlesnake bites or at least that more people die from infections called by cat bites than die from snake bites.

So I think that I have more than one reason.


I have noticed that cat lovers do not want to believe these things. Some of them get quite belligerent about it.

If the 11+ million illegals get to stay that is called amnesty. We aren't stupid. We lived through the Gang of 8. It let's people stay and gives a 13 year path to citizenship.
