Food is to Eat, Animals are to Love

dsc02167.jpgI've never been one for wearing T-shirts with images or text on them, but now that I've acquired one from Satya magazine with a pro-animal message, I've decided that its worth having people reading my chest if it gives me an opportunity to speak up for animals. At the Animal Rights conference I tripled my message T-shirt collection with the purchase of two tank tops from Animal Rights Stuff.

As a rule, I don't wear white tops or anything that could be seen as "cute," but, once again, I broke my own rules and bought a white tank top with the image shown here. I plan to wear it the next time I do a sales event and see if I can convince anyone who comments on it that animals are for kissing, not eating.
