Consensus Gentium Poll: Should we supernaturals be concerned with what and how we consume our nourishment?

To feed, or not to feed: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler to mind the suffering
The stings and aching of our nutrient fare,
Or to take arms against a bounty of nom noms,
And by opposing end them? To die: to eat;
I won't apologize for wrecking Shakespeare for my own ends! Here we begin another poll, to PULL out a consensus on our culture and what should be the norm. Since there was no objections, I will be offering 4 options of which you can only pick one. Be bold, be brave, be honest and be heard DAMMIT.
Man, butchering beloved plays really riles me up. Still not sorry!

There sure is a lot if, "None of these answers fit my views", being voted for.
Don't leave the people in the dark y'all. You may very well be the majority with all those votes. Try our anonymous submission box if you don't want to be a target for speaking up!
Let's hear it, all opinions count here. If you're worried that people will know you by the way you talk, filter your words through Google translate into another language and then filter it back. That should at least be fun!

What source doesn't matter,
how doesn't matter. Whether you binge, or you self-starve doesn't matter; it's individual preference. Don't like torture? Don't torture. What if a person is so against the need to feed all they can do is be around someone beaten and bloody to a pulp where it forces them to feed and ignore their conscious? Then torture, or have someone do it for you. (Unlikely one may argue, sure, but
how do you know it isn't true?)
People may not like what I choose, or vice versa, but I'm not going to shame. This vote is nothing more than voicing opinions of judgement. And sure, I may as hell judge what someone says, and others will judge me. At the end of the day/night what's done is done. People don't get in my way, I won't theirs.

While I strongly disagree with your opinion on feeding, I agree with your opinion on this poll. Not a huge fan as I don’t think inherent personal morals is something that should be a consensus gentium — same as I don’t think agreeing on a religion would be likely or possible. Regardless of public opinion, even if every other person thinks torture is supes cool, I never will and I never will stop saying I don’t, and I’m sure that goes both ways, whereas if the city says XYZ = powered, I’ll probably shrug and go along. So I’m conflicted about this poll.
And really want to know who all voted alongside Jude so I can avoid you 4ever, weirdos.

Well we just got paladins, maybe people can throw the money together to ask the Prince for some sort of... Ethically-friendly-free-range humans.
Or a new shop: the Donation Guild, where for a small fee you can sit and siphon your vitae from a willing mortal using an environmentally friendly biodegradable tube, then enjoy a tea and biscuit and chat together after.

...but I don't like tea...
Can my human be hardcore and drink Kraken?
Preferably before the deed.
Then we can just exchange awkward looks and mumbles before we part ways!
