What do you think of this person’s reasons for becoming a vegetarian?
Is she saying everyone shouldn’t eat meat, or is she just talking about a personal choice?

Personal Choice. Doesn’t do much to convince us to avoid meat.

Her final statement “while everyone else is eating meat” begs of guilt by association no?

I thought a personal choice, until she said, “I feel really good doing my part”. I’d say it’s a hidden agenda disguised as a personal choice (the choice she made was still personal none-the-less).
What fallacy would this be? Disguising a hidden agenda within a story?

God put animals on the earth so we could eat them.

She looks funny in that tie.

She says she researched it but doesn’t give us any of the facts of why it would benefit the individual. She kind of uses the fallacy of Appeal to Pity with the dead bird senario. Then she also uses the fallacy of snob appeal because she says that she sits there and eats her vegitarian diet while “everyone else is eating meat”. So she doesn’t give us any REAL reasons on why we should join her in being a vegitarian.
