• Why should I become a vegan?
• I don't care, everywhere in the nature the weaker are eaten by the stronger, that's the way of life, isn't it?
• OK, so let's fight the meat-eaters, what can I do?
• So I eat no meat because animals have to die for it, but I eat eggs and milk?
• I see, so I don't eat any animal products, don't wear any clothes made from animals, in general avoid all products animals have to suffer for and everything is fine, isn't it?
• Great idea, but how should I promote veganism?
• As a vegan, what can I do to show my support?

General

Do you want to live? Yes you want.
So why should you have the right to live while you don't grant the same right to pigs, cows and chicken who have to die for your spare ribs, burgers and chicken wings. That makes no sense, if you want to live you have to let live.

It isn't! You have the choice. Do you want to play the 'eat and being eaten' game or join the 'live and let live' club?
If you choose to play the game, don't forget the second part. If you eat you accept the risk of being eaten. Of course no cow will kill you in return after eating a burger. But there are other things that can eat you physically or emotionally, cancer, heart attacks, strokes, accidents, a cheating girlfriend, a beating boyfriend, mobbing colleagues, just to name a few. It's terrible, but these are ways you may be eaten.
So isn't it wiser to let live? Then you have all the chances of living a happy life.

You have no right to do that. Live a cruelty-free life yourself, be a role model, that's what you should do. Educate people if they are interested, but if not, let them live their lives. Everybody is responsible for their own actions.

Do you really think, no animals are killed for producing eggs and milk?
What if a hen becomes old and produces less eggs? She will be killed for chicken soup. So you have to breed new chicken and get boy as well as girl chicks. Since boy chicks can't produce eggs of course, they are useless for chicken farmers and are killed. Or do you think ckicken mums have girl chicks only?
What do you think a cow produces milk for? For her calf. And when she doesn't have a calf she produces no milk of course. If you don't believe it, ask your mum if she still produces milk now since you are no baby anymore. Human and bovine mums function the same way. So if you want milk, you have to make a cow pregnant again and again, steal the milk from the calves and send them to the slaughterhouse since they are useless for milk farmers.
Do you still think eating eggs and milk doesn't kill any animals?

Congratulations, but that's only the first step. What if you stole a car, is it enough to stop stealing, but keep the car? Of course not, you would say, you have to return the stolen car too. Of course you can't bring back all the animals that had to die for the burgers and steaks you have eaten during your life, but you can save the lifes of animals living today. Every friend, relative or colleague you convince to become a vegan won't buy any animal products anymore and no animals have to die for them anymore.
By promoting veganism you save these lifes and make up for what you did in your pre-vegan life.

Don't hide that you are vegan.
Download and print the stickers from the download section and post them everywhere, print and send the cards as postcards to your friends and print the templates on your T-Shirts, Tank Tops, etc. and wear them.
When you go out with friends, visit relatives, etc. tell them that you are vegan so that they can take care of your needs. You don't want to starve, while they are eating, right?
You are not weird and have to hide, you are cool, so have self-confidence and be yourself. You love and respect them and they love and respect you, so they will understand and support you.
Download and print the information card from the download section and show it to people who don't understand what being a vegan means. Show it to restaurants so that they know what to serve you. Everywhere you go you will attract attention as a vegan, that's your chance to tell people about it and convince the interested ones. But don't force anybody to become a vegan. Make people curious about it, but it's their own decision if they become vegan or not then.
