I’m deeply passionate about animal rights and I’m deeply passionate about eating disorders (deeply against them, obviously) which leaves me and anyone else in this position in a predicament, because when coexisting these two passions can be problematic.
Why? Because EDs often desire restriction, and veganism offers that with little ability for other people to argue against it. So veganism then becomes a scapegoat for disordered and restrictive eating. Capiche?
So here’s my two cents on the matter - how do you navigate a diet that’s rooted in genuine care and love for animals and the environment (IF that’s the genuine reason you’re doing it), but that also fuels restrictive behaviour? My answer: eat eggs sometimes xoxoxo
