Some vegans eat honey. Some will eat eggs from "happy chickens". Some wear leather and wool.
Then they ain't vegans.
They are just not observant vegans.
There are also vegans who are ok with eating roadkill.
can you call a non-obversant vegan a vegan?
to be a vegan means to eat nothing produced by an animal, as stated before, so if you eat stuff produced by an animal you cease to be a vegan.
if you cease to be a vegan, does PETA come to your house and kill you?
and what about plants feeling pain? they actually show an autonomic response to having living leaves plucked, so does picking fruits and berries cause them "pain" as well?
and what about the fact that meat just plain tastes so damn good? and if you are a vegan, you usually have to take protein supplements. i know a vegan chick who lost all of her hair because of that.
oh, and how about the fact that when you eat a fruit, you are eating the meat of the fruit?
i say no, vegans cannot swallow semen because it comes from an animal
and aren't all men really just animals at heart?
