I’m a vegan, but I eat honey?

Question:
I don’t eat milk, eggs, fish, seafood, poultry, or meat.

But I do eat fruits, veggies, legumes, beans, and honey.
I wear no animal derived clothes.
I’m very environmental friendly. I recycle and volunteer at a hospital. I also ride the train, instead of using cars.

Am I still a vegan?

When they say ” no honey for infants”, does that refer to raw honey only?

Question:
Because I have the book Super Baby Food and there’s a recipe for whole wheat bread with honey and there’s no mention of waiting until the baby is over a year old to eat it. And What to Expect the First Year says to start giving your baby whole wheat bagels around 8 to 9 months but most wheat bagels have honey in them. So, what’s the deal?

Eating meat, dairy, egg, honey etc occasionally when under pressure is still vegan?

Question:
By the definition of veganism.
[T]he word “veganism” denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude — as far as is possible and practical — all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

The little bit there “as far as is possible and practical” would mean it’s okay. I know that I don’t but I just feel frustrated when the vegan police come out in full force because someone once gave into peer pressure, a craving or made a mistake.
Do you think we need to change the definition to make “the vegan police” happy or should we all just remind ourselves these “accidents” are okay?
THANKS!
