Your core will not have changed. It does seem unfair to try to force those pigeons to be heterosexual, though. The zoo brought in a bunch of floozie girl penguins and the gay guys were not interested. I am glad they have decided to live and let live now. It took me a little while to get used to soy milk. I can give you a few tips, if you'd like to try. But first remember that soy milk is good for your health, and may prevent prostate cancer or something. It is not nasty medicine, or deprivation. Now for the pointers! Soy Silk is the milk most people prefer. I started out with chocolate Soy Silk--really very good. You can drink the chocolate hot or cold. The Plain variety is good for cooking, like for making Irish Potato Soup, but for drinking straight or on cereal, Vanilla is the best. Try it a few times to allow yourself to get used to it. Now visualize a poor cow with mastitis (an udder infection), in agonizing pain and going lame because her udder is so big and low to the ground she can hardly walk. Now imagine all the pus and antibiotics and pesticides and growth hormones in her milk! Imagine yourself drinking directly from the cow. See how silly this is, and how silly the millions of people who drink milk are--so unnatural and everything. We are the only species that drinks another species' milk, or drinks milk beyond infancy--ridiculous!!! Now the soy milk tastes a lot better. And if it is a little hard to get used to, keep trying. Pretty soon you may find that cow's milk tastes really weird, and you can't imagine ever having liked it. Good luck--it is really admirable that you're willing to try soy milk. I'm really impressed.
