I live in Perth, WA.
I'm 16 years old.  
Vegetarian, some day vegan.
I decided to stop eating meat when I was in year three, despite my parents' dissapproval. Now that I'm older and know better I'm much more active in making sure that my food is vegetarian. I'm passionate about animal rights and won't use cosmetics, wear clothes, etc. tested on animals or containing any animal product.

I only have one friend who is vegetarian, everyone else argues with me, as if when I tell them I am a vegetarian it is an invitation to insult my personal beliefs.
People always say that livestock is raised to be killed so it's okay, they seem to forget the live part of livestock....  
"Eating meat, it's what we've always done..." Because something found in history makes it correct, like sexism and racism...


"When non-vegetarians say that 'human problems come first' I cannot help wondering what exactly it is that they are doing for human beings that compels them to continue to support the wasteful, ruthless exploitation of farm animals."
              - Peter Singer, 1975
