Welcome - I've personally been vegan since my early teen years - something I'm sure my hunting father wouldn't have expected from our first hunt trip - but it just wasn't right Killing for the sake of food. Now I'm in my early 50's and well adapted to the world around me, and pleased with the groundswell of the vegan movement. My one regret is that it has always been so diffucult to find a partner in life that appreciated and understood the need to respect our Dominion of the non-human animals of the world - and thus is born this website for all like minded people to finally have a place to meet and network, and form new beautiful and naturally far more healthy relationships.
