    Vegan here. I found that it’s exclusively those coworkers, that are really about their masculinity. It’s an important part of their personality to be a man. Those people tend to also dislike or don’t understand LGBT folks, and have strong feelings about the differences between man and woman and their places in society. They are not bad people. I like a lot of them. But it gets tiring and infuriating at times.

      Sounds like some of my coworkers. I’m not vegetarian but some of the comments about the products in the warehouse are laughable. One coworker said he’d never eat fake meat. Same guy can’t understand how someone could be transgender. He’s a good person from all accounts I’ve heard but is stuck on that mindset. It’s nice to have something to snack on that something didn’t have to die for.

        At least nothing cute. As a grower of food for vegans, there are definitely animals killed in the process.
