My husband says yay, I say nay. What are your thoughts?

    In that case, I’ll try and answer: I think that for 99.999% of vegans the question wouldn’t even occur to them. Veganism is about avoiding hurting animals for food, not about human breastfeeding practices. The question seems bizarre.

      I’ve known a handful of folks who abstain from animal products for religious reasons. One or two did not breastfeed because they view any food produced by/in any body as tainted. Ital eating–but hyper restrictive. They never referred to their practices as veganism, but there is that “don’t eat animal products” overlap.

      I thought some vegans don’t consume animal products because they think they are unhealthy, not because of the suffering associated with it, but like I said in other comments, I really don’t know much about veganism, but am open to it.
