Straight Edge is Vegan? (Score:2)

by gizmo_mathboy (782)

I have two questions:

1) I didn't realize Straight Edgers had to be vegan.
2) Why would a school ban either Straight Edge or Vegan?

Weird in all sorts of ways.

  Many straight-edgers are also vegan, but the original definition of straight-edge, as taken from a song by Minor Threat, does not include veganism. I think the (potential) ascetism of veganism attracts people who are already attracted to the asceticism of straight-edge.
  
  However, as a vegan who is not an ascetic, I don't particularly like the connection between the two. Straight-edgers are generally not great ambassadors for veganism, as they make it seem quite unappealing.
