I ask this in good faith, and I do not mean to bring about struggle sessions with this question (keep it civil, please :). I'm writing a sort of mini-essay on a certain topic (Edit: not anymore, I lost my writing appetite), and veganism fits into that topic (I'm keeping it vague because I'll probably post it here and I don't want to spoil the whole thing). If people are on the fence and others want to know more about what Veganism is and why they should consume in that way, I would be grateful if others more experienced and well-read on the subject could provide resources or counter-reasons. I feel like a lot of the things I believed before going vegan turned out to be misconceptions, and it doesn't hurt to be more educated on a subject, right?

Edit: I need to take a break from the internet again, if my brain wasn't fried already it is now (not anything any of you started, I brought this upon myself)

    I'm sympathetic to a lot of vegan arguments, but my family isn't vegan and they buy most of the groceries/ determine what is for dinner.
    I may or may not go vegan in the future depending on my partner's diet.

      Same. I tried to get my parents to consider veganism since it would even be cheaper under the current fucked up economy of our country but couldn't convince them. I might end up moving out, in which case I will go vegan.

      It's hard when other people are buying the food, and a partner is one of the prospects I fear when it comes to Veganism.
