Hi! As I am new to this place, let me say you all a warm and friendly hello. :) I am a music student from (and living in) Copenhagen, Denmark. And I am (abolitionist) vegan. - sqrt

Speciesism. As opposed to a welfarist/reform AR activist.

Oh, I meant abolotionist as opposed to welfarist in my view of animal rights.
The reason I do not want animal products has nothing to do with the quality of the life the animals led or lead, but rather that I don't want to enslave any animal for the purpose of feeding or clothing me. :)
I think wikipedia has a short article on the subject - including critisism - with links to webpages that contain more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolitionism_(animal_rights)
