In another thread the subject of Paul Krassner, a satirist/comedian/whacko from years gone by, was interjected. Someone brought up his publication, The Realist.
In doing a search, a recent copy had this to say:
Gotta remember to use this question when I next meet a Vegan.
I’m a vegetarian and I don’t swallow, because it is an unsafe sex practice. There are a couple of things which would differentiate semen from steak for me. First, presumably anyone from whom I’m extracting semen agreed to and is willing to part with it, unlike the flesh of an animal. Second, the semen donor is able to get up and walk away afterward, again unlike the animal.
I’m sure someone will shortly bring up the cow from Restaurant at the End of the Universe, so allow me to foreclose.
