It was a conscious choice, due to morality. The meat industry=the dairy industry. Animals die at the hands of both and I am an animal lover hence my decision.

No, vegans don't wear leather, use dairy or consume eggs.

You aren't being polemic, however you are making assumptions. 'Such a difficult...'
It isn't difficult for me, at all. It's second nature.
An assumption that most would probably agree with -it is not an easy choice to follow through to the end with absolute scruple, so well done if you find it easy -I would not.

So many of the products we use regularly do have some animal content so it's almost impossible to be completely vegan in a certain sense.
Just a simple example: a book - some of the inks may have an animal origin as well as the glues used in bindings.
