Ororo Munroe: Storm Appreciation 2019

[butterflykyss]

So it’s a fact that animal agriculture is one of the biggest contributors to species extinction, ocean dead zones, water pollution, and habitat destruction...but you think it’s corny or something for Storm to be a vegetarian?

Storm not being veggie/vegan in 2019 is just poor writing.

Edit: In one of her very first appearances in the 70s we see her calling out Logan for hunting. Veganism is a natural progression for the character.

what was the context of why she didnt like him hunting? hunting as a sport I would see her being against that but hunting to eat or survive I dont agree she would have issues with especially considering her ancestral ties. she, as I've stated, has also killed animals but done so when required to save lives:

Storm going Vegan isn't really that much of a problem. I mean sure we see Storm eating a Hamburger, but like when is the LAST time you've seen Storm eat meat????

For all we know Storm could have changed her mind since then.....

Black Panther.....

She objected to Logan hunting for sport, though Logan claimed he didn’t actually hurt the animals. Anyway, seeing as Storm has mostly lived in the US since joining the X-Men, I don’t see why hunting for survival or defending herself from wild animals is relevant?

Black Panther.....

when in black panther? I thought the last time was in her solo?

you made my point. ororo would most certainly abhor to hunting for sport. but people hunting for the purposes of survival I would think she would understand and not have issues with that. and the latter points you mentioned, as I understanding it, would most certainly be relevant because vegans abstain from using any form of animal products because of the harm it cause animals.

Veganism is about reducing the suffering you cause to animals as far as is possible and practicable. If I need to defend myself I will. If I had no other possible alternative I’d consider eating meat(still probably wouldn’t). My point is that Storm has been living in a first world country and is financially supported by the X-Men($$$). That burger she was eating in Pak’s run had nothing to do with survival or self defense.

people eat to survive my friend.

You do not have to defend yourself. NO one attacked you for being a vegan. That is your choice and I think all of us respect that. But that doesn't mean we are going to stop eating meat in our own lives.

[stormphoenix]

exactly beloved.

thank you!




when was the last time we saw any if the xmen eating meat? Ororo's ideals towards life is not something that just happened. Shes always had a respect towards life since she first killed a man in self defense. Over the many, many years this is the first time EVER she has been stated as such. If she was going to make a change like this I see it happening way before now.



I would totally see her eating meat in the way you described. Her totally being against eating meat, especially when there is canonical evidence of her even killing animals seems a bit of a stretch.



this is fair. I just think if she was going to do this it would have been expressed way before now.

But what does that have to do with her being Vegan??? If she chooses to become a Vegan that’s fine. What’s the problem.

[Vegan Daddy]

Right, but Storm doesn’t need to eat meat or dairy to survive.

Black Panther was the last meat she ate

Thank You.

I didn’t ask you to? We’re talking about Storm.
