Top Ten Misconceptions About Vegans

I'm not a vegan or a vegetarian, but even I think this misconception is stupid. Although, I would blame the vegans on Instagram and DeviantArt for making blood-filled pictures that look like PETA propaganda.

I think that if any organisation were to cause harm to animals, then those who support animal rights would logically oppose it.

I am vegan, and I am against PETA for their racism, misogyny, and violence.

I'm not a vegan but actually a vegetarian (lacto-ovo vegetarian), so my principles are somewhat different. But yeah, the reason why I don't eat meat, fish, or wear leather is that I can't see animals slaughtered solely for human use.

I'm not fully a vegan as I still eat cheese and eggs for the extra protein, fat, and calcium.

I eat A LOT of meat, and I can still manage my weight!

I eat a lot of chicken, and I'm bony.

I don't really get this one myself. When I tell people I'm vegan, they straight away question my protein intake. I have the same reply each time: Don't ask me about my protein, and I won't ask you about your cholesterol.

Cocaine is vegan, and it's unhealthy.
Sushi is non-vegan, and it's super healthy.

This is dumb. I'm no vegan, but this is so stupid!

Seriously? To become a saint, you need to perform 3 miracles, and the Catholic Church has to give you the title.

I have better logic in my pinkie than every vegan out there.

I would use the adage "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar," but vegans don't eat honey! Yes, there are a few vegan activists who believe in promoting veganism by using an in-your-face, confrontational approach. However, the majority of activists take a more subtle approach where education, rational thinking, and adherence to one's moral compass are used to urge people to consider adopting a vegan lifestyle. (Check out various YouTube videos by Ed Earthling.)

The stereotypical vegans dress like hippies, but I don't think that's the case.

Hell yeah, we are soft-hearted. If you were dying in front of me, I wouldn't even shed a tear! We aren't vegan because we are crying about our pet pigs dying, we just want to stop cruelty to animals!
