Posted by Pulin Modi at February 13, 2008 11:35 AM | Permalink | Comments ( 9 ) | TrackBackIf you don't know Matthew Lush (a.k.a. Gay God), you probably haven't spent all that much time on MySpace or YouTube. He's one of the most popular users on both sites with hundreds of thousands of people checking out his pages every month. And the best part is that Matthew is vegan and dedicated to animal rights.
Check out this fun video he made about the "Top Ten Reasons I Won't Date A Meat-Eater," just in time for Valentine's Day.
It just went up over the weekend, but over 200,000 people have already checked it out! We'd love to see your own videos so do it up and send us a link!
P.S.- Matthew also talks about peta2 and animal rights every Tuesday night on his Stickam show. So check it out.

Can things get more amazing? I think not.
Click on the photo below to enjoy 25 seconds of pure vegan zombie excitement!

Vegetarians: At School and On YouTube September 6, 2007

Vegan vegetarian Fox River Grove YouTube teacher
I was sent a couple of cool news articles today that I just had to share with you lovelies.
First up is the Fox River Grove, Illinois, teacher who got kicked out of his classroom for sharing with his students why he's a vegan. Dave Warwak, a favorite teacher at Fox River Grove Middle School wanted to share with students just why he chose a vegan lifestyle ('cause animals on factory farms and in slaughterhouses are treated horribly) and was ordered to leave his classroom. Sound the alarm! I can't believe a teacher was ordered to leave his classroom for providing students with the truth. I was under the impression that students go to school to get educated...
Anyway, Warwak says, "It was never said that you have to take this and be like this. It was nothing like that. It was just hey here's some information if you're interested." Click here to read the full article for yourself.
Next up is the article about 14-year-old Amy Bareijan who wanted to learn more about a vegetarian lifestyle (after seeing a PETA video on YouTube), so she decided to post a video on YouTube asking for people's advice/experiences. She didn't expect much response, but received nearly 5,000 video views and had tons of people offering advice.
This is the type of thing I love to hear—it's amazing to know the kind of support that exists for people wanting to go vegetarian. The peta2 message boards are a great place for that kind of support. You have to be a member to post on them though, so go ahead and sign up at peta2.com/StreetTeam. You'll be addicted, I swear (and I can say that because I used to spend hours on the boards as a peta2 Street Teamer!).
To read the full article about Amy's experience, click here. And for those of you dying to know—yup, Amy is still a vegetarian, and going strong!
Hope your Thursday is going well!
