Whales?

Just a quick post about this billboard....




Okay, guess what PETA? You can be vegetarian and not thin. I could eat nothing BUT veggies and not be thin. It would be hard to do, but simply going vegan or vegetarian does not = being non-whale. I have nothing against PETA, veganism, or vegetarianism. I highly respect other people's decisions about what they eat and why, and there are many moral reason for not eating meat. But fat shaming women is not the way to go about spreading the message. Attention getting? Yes. Offensive? Probably.

More on the story here.

  1. PETA be offensive? Never!

    They undo all their good intentions with their vulgar tactics.

    I see no evidence that shows being a vegetarian directly leads to being skinny. Pasta and cheese can pack on the pounds as easily as a burger.
