To be honest, if some nutty old man hit me in the nards for no apparent reason I'd probably have done similar. Or maybe I would have run away.

Carnism. That's a good word. I'm glad I used it.

Quote:

Carnism is the invisible belief system, or ideology, that conditions people to eat certain animals. Carnism is essentially the opposite of veganism; “carn” means “flesh” or “of the flesh” and “ism” denotes a belief system.

Most people view eating animals as a given, rather than a choice; in meat-eating cultures around the world people typically don’t think about why they find the flesh of some animals disgusting and the flesh of other animals appetizing, or why they eat any animals at all.

But when eating animals is not a necessity for survival, as is the case in much of the world today, it is a choice - and choices always stem from beliefs.

Melanie Joy, an animal activist and author, discovered there was no label for the beliefs of people who produce, consume, and promote meat eating. She created the term "carnism" (Latin carn, flesh or body) in 2001 to name and describe this dominant cultural belief system.
