An interesting approach
I guess in some ways I admire Vegans. Though its certainly not a lifestyle I’d chose, its probably the most intellectually honest approach when it comes to not wanting to harm animals by eating them. Some people in New Zealand are taking things a step further:
A new phenomenon in New Zealand is taking the idea of you are what you eat to the extreme.
Vegansexuals are people who do not eat any meat or animal products, and who choose not to be sexually intimate with non-vegan partners whose bodies, they say, are made up of dead animals.

Many female respondents described being attracted to people who ate meat, but said they did not want to have sex with meat-eaters because their bodies were made up of animal carcasses.

One vegan respondent from Christchurch said: “I believe we are what we consume, so I really struggle with bodily fluids, especially sexually.”
Another Christchurch vegan said she found non-vegans attractive, but would not want to be physically close to them.
“I would not want to be intimate with someone whose body is literally made up from the bodies of others who have died for their sustenance,” she said.
This makes sense to me. If you were/are a strong vegan then being with someone who’s not probably wouldn’t be that appealing. Good thinking New Zealand vegans!
