Thread: Any other vegetarians on SRP?

Just wondering who out there is a vegetarian (if anyone). I am always trying to dispel the myth that veggies are sissy little girly men, and, being a man's man myself, I would love to find out who around here joins me in not partaking of flesh.

Clearly sissy girlie men use straight razors.



sorry, my wife doesn't think I'm funny either

Untill the birth of our son, my wife was a vegetarian. However, when the lad was nursing, she craved chicken. She still eats chicken , but is otherwise a veggy. She actually got me to eat tofu and like it. It's all in the preperation, I guess. Her tofu burgers are something I actually ask for, they're so good.

I don't think vegetarians are sissys, I just think that they're missing out on all the really good food

Even when I order a salad it has
steak on it. I guess that rules me
out.

My wife was a vegetarian for 10 years or so. She just go tired of the hassle of dealing with trying to get just vegetarian meals. I have NEVER been a vegetarian. My dad was a butcher.

Perhaps you can answer something I've been curious about: I know there are vegetarian strops available, but what is it that they're made of? I find it hard to imagine a synthetic material being sufficiently similar to leather in it's mechanical properties and I can't think of a plant based material which would be suitable either.

Shotwell,
You want to talk to a vegetarian who is "none sissy" talk to this guy:

Mike is an acquaintance of mine and, I believe, a vegan. He is an outstanding person and strong as all get out. I got the opportunity to train with him at a kettle bell workshop in London and he really impressed me.

Hello and thanks for the wonderful post! I am new to the art of straight razor shaving and was concerned about vegan products, which prompted the search (that is how I found this post); I am glad to see that there is some concern about ethical topics on this forum! To answer your question, I am vegan and have been so off and on for over 10 years, I have been vegetarian most of my life...so you can add a tally mark to your list.

Thank you,

Jay Bustamante

I am.
