Quoted from Simon on Monday, 02 September 2024

Hi everyone,

I’m Simon, I live in Swansea and have been vegan (for the animals) for about 6 years now. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.

I’m single and in all honesty I’m struggling to maintain any relationship where the woman is not vegan. Even when they have been very good and sympathetic towards it and been “vegan” while directly with me. I’d never be able to accept someone eating meat if I was physically with them, I just think it’s disgusting. So I have tried to date non-vegans, but I feel like I’m done. Having to explain for the 1000th time why I don’t eat eggs is wrecking me. Having to congratulate someone for tasting my vegan food is also getting tiring, I much prefer sharing experiences of finding new vegan places with someone else who really can appreciate it.

When I’ve found (extremely rare!) a lovely vegan / vegetarian to date, I typically just get put in the friendzone and while it’s great to add vegan friends, it’s not great for me really.🙈 It’s proving to be extremely difficult, disheartening and frustrating to find anyone who is the type of person who I could form a relationship with, is vegan, and local enough to me for it to work. ❤️

Anyway enough of all that 🤭🤣

Looking to add friends on here, I think the idea of this site is great, and if it helps me find a lovely vegan female to date, then even better! ha ha ☺️🤭

Hi Simon,
What is for you, won’t pass you.
You might find a currently non vegan woman who learns about the exploitation of animals from you.
Me and my husband went vegetarian together at first and then vegan. It took him a few weeks to catch up but he saw the reality of it and did not want to contribute to exploitation anymore.
I think finding a vegan partner would probably be easier by attending vegan fairs, events, gigs, maybe Campout etc

Hey StellaParis the app is not on the app store yet.
Here is a post to help you get the app.

Hi Ashlyn,
Thank you. I have managed. On my iPhone the share button is top right. Maybe because I’m using chrome rather than safari. Thanks for your help 😀

Hey StellaParis 👋
A huge warm welcome to Vegan Profile 🎉
It’s really great to have such a valued vegan join our community.
I’m really impressed by your incredible work, dedication and passion for advocating for animals.
Running a vegan restaurant, organizing protests, supporting sanctuaries and making music, it’s all amazing.
Wishing you all the success with your song, and we hope you feel right at home here 💚

Hi Chris,
Thank you so much! I feel like we need this safe space for us vegan-only members. I’ve had a hard time on SM especially Facebook.
This platform like a vegan temple. Hopefully everyone stays loving & kind.
I have a question. I keep getting a notification, saying to download the vegan profile app. But when I look for it on App Store, Vegan Profile doesn’t come up. What do I need to do?

Hey Stella,

I am glad you made it here 🐷🐔🐮🌿💚☺️ You have done such inspiring work, and I had no idea you had a restaurant. It seems you made so much out of your life, no matter how hard it must have been 🌱 I hope you get as much success as possible with your new song as it has aesthetics, the message, and has a cool vibe 🌱☺️🐮🐔🐷 Organizing protests must have taken great bravery 🌱

Hello Nota,
Aww 🥰 thank you! Yes the restaurant was called Mama Earth and she will be popping up again soon. Just got lots of paperwork and adulting to do before we open her up again!
I closed it last September, that’s why I haven’t recently posted about it on social media.
Thank you regarding the song! I’m hoping it reaches more like minded vegans who enjoy that kind of chill new age vibe.
Protests can be nerve wrecking and a little scary at moments, but they are rewarding for the animals!
If we don’t speak up, who will!

So many of us Vegans and activists dream of one day running an animal sanctuary 🐮 🐏 🐔 🐖; wouldn't it be amazing if we could all come together and pitch in our funds to create like the biggest animal sanctuary ever!?!? 😆🤩 Think of all the animals we could rescue! 🙌🏼🐐🌱🐇🐔🐷🌱🐮🐖🐎🫏🌱🐕

That would be so cool!! I believe there are Trust communities like this, but I think they are more focused on conservation of land- buying the land which was ripped for food for the farmed exploited animals & conserving it back into vegan land, making it into how it used to be, by growing native trees, plants and herbs. I stayed for a month in a vegan commune like this- in Ecuadorean Amazon rainforest. The place is called Las Aguas Risas. When I asked why they don’t have rescue farm animals, they explained they want to give the land back to the wild animals who are meant to be there. They have 2 vegan dogs and 3 vegan cats who stay inside. It’s a super cool place.

Hi StellaParis very big welcome. Love all that you do and your loving energy.
Just on my way to work so wanted to say a quick hello after reading your post.
Looking forward to having you as friend 🥰💚

Hi Ashlyn,

Hi Stella, great to meet you! and a pleasure to have you here.

Your love and commitment to animals is truly inspiring. Running a vegan restaurant, creating music with a powerful message, and actively protesting for animal rights shows how loving you are.

It’s amazing that you’re donating a portion of your income to vegan sanctuaries. I’ll definitely check out your song and follow you .
Looking forward to your updates! 🌱💚

Hi Tomp, lovely to meet you!
I love animals so much! It pains me they suffer at the hands of unkind humans. I am trying my best to not spiral in my Vystopia again, like I was end of last year/ beginning of this year. I find artistic expression, music and being in nature helps a lot!
Thank you for the compliments! Enjoy the song & music video!! 🙏🏼🐠

Wow animal sanctuary great thought Stella...I would like to know have u faced any threats while doing these activism...I am eager to know...Also a bold person can do protest infront of parliament...have u faced any criticism or threats while u did these

Yes I have faced threats, but was always careful about not getting arrested. When I organised
the protest outside MBR Acres with Camp Beagle, I was joined by 8 other UK female models who showed interest in the cause. We did a bikini protest and this attracted media attention. Journalists came over to tell the beagles’ story and why we were there half naked on a fast road. But MBR brought muscle. They had these 4 burly menacing looking men wearing a face mask and sunglasses, hiding their identity. They came out, ran after me and another model, throwing injunction letters at us. My husband was there and he acted like my security. They called us freaks. Then the other models joined. And we were opposite their building, away from the side of the gate this time. The thugs crossed the road and came to harass the models whilst I was on the phone with a journalist. I heard screaming as they pushed the models and tapped them with paperwork. They called them sluts.
The boyfriend of one of the models was protecting her as she was pregnant. No one knew back then. He pushed the thug MBR worker away and he fell in a ditch covered in leaves. Took him a while to get up.
A week later, the model told me they were getting sued because the thug said he hurt his back. They saw their car number plate on their cameras and reported them to the police.
The charges were dropped as the woman showed up in court pregnant and hence why the bf acted that way, to protect her.
With regards, the parliament, I was met with an onlooker who told me I should put my tiny dog down as he’s a nuisance. He was barking at another dog as we were doing the beagle protest. And another man was aggressive, telling me I should put some clothes on and that no one will listen to me about what I have to say.
With regards, the protest in Malta, one of the men who owned horse carriage kept running through the protesters and hitting them with his shoulders & hitting the signs with the palm of his hand.
The police were there and did nothing to stop him from acting out violently.
I was protesting passionately and one of horse carriage owners tried to take the mickey out of me. As he started recording I said, is this how you want your children to remember you, as an animal abuser? At that point he turned his phone away and the same violent guy had something in his hand. He started walking towards me. I wasn’t sure if it was a knife, a razor or a pen. But I screamed out and the police stopped him to see what he had in his hand. He was definitely coming to attack me. Most horse carriage drivers have criminal records and the thugs who works at MBR do too.
It is not easy protesting. I am now currently doing it on insta online and through my music.
At one point my vegan husband was worried I’ll get hurt or arrested. I do tend to be brave in that moment and stand up to people who are not good. However, these people are deranged. I tried to get into fox hunting protests and he said those people are the worst of the worst, and I can put myself in a lot of danger especially since they might recognise me from social media and maybe find my Uk address.
