    Well no, not when you make it weird. That’s a you thing.

    Could be harvesting watercress from a drainage ditch or going somewhere remote to forage whatever. Obtaining, preparing, and eating food, is intimate.

    intimate adjective in·​ti·​mate ˈin-tə-mət 2 : of a very personal or private nature

    Doesn’t get much more personal than eatting, lest we’re talking about eating people. See, now it’s me that’s making it weird.

      None of what you said is clever or addressed that killing animals, ripping off their skin, tearing out their viscera, and eating their flesh is creepy, especially given the amount of planning, tools, etc, that is requires. Don’t conflate that with foraging watercress. It’s a bad, lazy argument.

      You kill for pleasure. I don’t care if it’s tradition, religion, or whatever other excuse you tell yourself, you kill for pleasure. And that’s creepy. And I’m not interested in continuing his or any further conversation with you.
