Are Herbivores out of touch?
In 2013 someone called M. Butterflies Katz carried out a survey of 7,000 people in various vegan Facebook groups, and asked them a series of interesting and relevant questions about themselves. M. Butterflies Katz is also a vegan and further believes that the exploitation of cows for dairy and chickens for eggs, is a feminist issue. I mention that in case anyone was wondering if she was strange. This data is from the results of her survey. Links are below
