That's not to say the syndicated and cable shows are that much more liberated. But they're more libertine. They're unapologetically about the meat market--none of them have "Love" or "Marry" in their title--and they don't root themselves in cockamamie romantic truisms. For young viewers who spent their entire lives in the aids era, they're a safe fantasy of commitment-free dating, all about getting lucky, drunk and stupid with little at stake.

...answer to your question "Should You Be a Vegetarian?" is most definitely yes! A vegetarian diet is healthier. Our ancestors obviously would not have survived had they not been carnivores, but there is no nutritional argument for meat eating today. Vegetarianism is truly an evolutionary step forward. JAMES L.
