> As a feminist, this body-hating rhetoric infuriated me. The willing participation in the denial and degradation of my bodily needs smacked of misogyny, patriarchal control and violence against the female body, and everything that I fight against. Huh? So somebody who willingly does not eat animal products despite the health issues is misogynistic? What does this have to do with sexes? > I refuse to play the game that so many women (vegan or not) are forced to play by our violently woman hating society; I will never feel shame or guilt for eating what my body wants and needs to be healthy. It seems like veganism is not her only problem...
