PETA is in the middle of a competition at the moment.
Every year, PETA has a “Sexiest Vegan Next Door” contest. In that contest, vegans apply to be considered and then are narrowed down to 10 men and 10 women. From there, the two groups are voted on by the pubic and judged for other, more secret, criteria. Then, one man and one women win the contest and receive a reward. This year’s reward is a free trip to Hawaii for 2.
Last year, Dexter Thomas won as the first ever transgender winner. This year, we have Daniel Dyviniak running for the title.
Daniel Dyviniak is a gay nurse living in Washington State with a positive HIV status.
Part of Daniel’s official bio reads:
“After being diagnosed with HIV, Daniel became much more concerned with the well-being of others, including animals, and went vegan. He works as a nurse and advocates a healthy, plant-based diet to people who have been newly diagnosed with HIV around the world as a way to stay healthy in spite of the harsh effects of the medication.”
If you want to check out Daniel more, you can head over to read his full bio at the website for the competition.

Good luck to Daniel.
