Its just a fun day, I think its a brilliant idea because its unique and friendly. But yeah don't forget people, there are still people who dislike activists, thats why if you are going out to like a city or something I plead that you take others with you. I've handed out flyers many times before, and seriously a guy was going to bash me just for giving him one. People are strange like that and you could get insulted (more than likely) but if you take friends, then who cares what those people say FREE HUGS MAN! Its a great way to meet new people ..and a good way to flirt ;D hahaha
It's strange with some guys. I think the majority really, really, really despise leaflets or something. 8/10 guys i offer a leaflet don't want it; 8/10 girls i offer a leaflet do want it.

Thats because girls are more attracted to you than the guys haha.
I think its a "Im a macho meat eater" thing, like.. I can't be tough without eating dead things. Its quite silly, but if you don't try and preach it and use some charm, usually you get nice responses.. but you get the one psycho every so often.

"Hey, help abused animals?" *gestures to leaflet*

asif someone would say no. i don't understand some peopleeeeeee.

even in some things i've read on leafleting, they say to target girls in their late teens/early twenties. apparently there more compassionate or something.

hmmm...maybe it would be better to have a women PM/president afterall.

Oh thats what you do.
I hold up a "free hugs" sign haha get hugs then give a leaflet
Also, going into Hungry Jacks with a leaflet against Hungry Jacks and giving them to the people eating works xD
Um what else has worked..Oh I have a kitty jacket, I wear that and get some interest.
I dunno you just have to be unique, people get annoyed with flyers around the city..I do too..but if someone grabs my attention Im like well hell yeah!

Its our feminine side haha, most men seem to hide those emotions that get to the heart, but ofcourse some do care.
Matt, next time go with a few girls who have a cute smile and Im sure you'll get a better outcome with the boys xD

Yeh, i'm not the most confident person in the world either... but its different when i leaflet. i think because i'm doing it for the animals -- and their lives depend on it -- i just get it done. they don't need my excuses.

on the 'leafleting' thread i posted a website and some tips.

good luck today!!

April, why don't you go to your local town, probably wouldn't do this alone so do you have friends who are aslo veg*n ?
Yeah...but they're not really into activism or anything. I'll give it a shot though.
Thanks
