animal rights

A philosophy that suggests some or all animals have the right to possess their own lives. Contrary to popular opinion, animal rights activists do not ask for voting rights for chickens or pigs. Rather they ask that animals not be used for food, entertainment, medical research or clothing. Some activists maintain that there is a distinction between sentient, or self-aware animals, and those with a large degree of self-awareness are to be afforded the right to possess their own lives. Animal rights is also largely tied to dietary lifestyles such as vegetarianism and veganism which abhor the consumption of meat products in accordance with the principles of animal rights.

Animal rights movements are not the same as animal welfare which take into account, the suffering of animals (and seek to prohibit it) but do not grant them specific rights

The Great Ape Project is seen by many animal rights activists, to be a step towards granting other animals the fundamental rights such as the right to life, liberty and prohibition of torture

Animal a beer

An animalistic way of drinking beer. The drinker takes a can of beer and slams the side three times against his forehead. He bites into the side of the can. He then drinks the beer from the resulting holes while squeezing it. Finally, he throws the empty can onto the ground and stomps on it with his feet.

John can really animal a beer. It makes a mess, but girls love it.

Animal Sex

When people fuck like animals. Having some savage ass sex, like non-stop penetrating action. When two or more people just fuck past morning light into the next night. When 2 or more people turn into a beast in bed. This generally happens after a person goes several weeks or months with out sex.

Yo Jack and Jane fucked like Monkeys, they just fucked, and fucked, and fucked.
