ok when i first became vegetarian (again) like a year and a half ago i was obsessed with reading and joining and educating others about animal rights. i was all gung ho and joined peta and started giving them monthly donations, but then a few months ago i got really annoyed with them and canceled my donations.
i dont know if anyone has seen the news online but they were supposed to air an ad today during the superbowl and instead of doing something that could be educational and cute or funny they decided to make a commercial basically saying "studies show, vegetarians have better sex." with a bunch of almost naked girls basically pretending to fuck themselves with vegetables. ok i know the majority of people watching the superbowl are gonna be middle aged horny men, but do you honestly think they are gonna think about going vegetarian or more than likely just ogle the womens bodies and make rude and objectifying comments? i mean. come ON peta. get real.
of course it got banned, so not only will millions of people NOT see it they just wasted all that money doing something they damn well KNEW wasnt ever going to be aired. and instead of doing something different they are all excited its banned and make a mockery of the people at the boardroom who decided to ban it. which honestly i think they had plenty reason to. little kids watch this game. noone needs to see a naked chick fucking herself with a piece of broccoli. and ive read all sorts of articles that say the people MOST open to vegetarianism is younger kids. dont you think they should be targeting them instead of a bunch of dudes who would probably be drinking beer and knawing on some hot wings at the exact moment it aired? older people are stuck in their ways. i know i will never in a million years convince my dad to go vegetarian but when i actually talk to my little brother about it, he may pretend he thinks im stupid but i can almost see the wheels turning up there as he actually considers what i have to say.
ughhh it just pisses me off bc theres this huge opportunity to really show that vegetarianism is not hard, its not bad. you can still eat. but no. they just make us all look like a bunch of fucktards.
