" ASHEVILLE, North Carolina (AP) -- You can call her Cutout Dissection.com, or Cutout for short, but just don't call her Jennifer. The former Jennifer Thornburg -- whose driver's license now reads Dissection.com, Cutout -- wanted to do something to protest animal dissections in schools. The 19-year-old's new name is also the Web address for an anti-dissection page of the site for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, where she is interning. Don't Miss "I normally do have to repeat my name several times when I am introducing myself to someone new," she told The Asheville Citizen-Times. "Once they find out what my name is, they want to know more about what the Web site is about." The Asheville High School graduate, who is working in Virginia, said she began opposing dissections in middle school after a class assignment to cut up a chicken wing made her uncomfortable. She helped create a policy at her high school that allows students who object to dissections to complete an alternative assignment. Despite her legally changing the name, she said most of her family members still call her Jennifer. "It will take me a while," said her dad, Duane Thornburg, who lives in Daytona Beach, Florida. "She's still Jennifer to me. I understand why she's done it. Believe it or not, I totally respect it." A CD showing the treatment of animals before they are dissected finally convinced him to support his daughter's cause, he said. "

Good luck ever finding a real job with that name.

10/14/2008 4:16:29 PM

I'm sure she plans on working her way up the ranks of PETA.

oh wait you said real job.

10/14/2008 4:19:41 PM

We're not gonna cure cancer by dissecting feelings you stupid bitch

10/14/2008 4:22:12 PM

what a dumb cunt.

agreed. Nobody fucking likes PETA.

Not all hippies are members of PETA, but I'll bet you all members of PETA are hippies

judging by that picture I'd say she needs to change her name to cutout twinkies.com

10/14/2008 4:37:21 PM

If all goes well, I'll be dissecting a Whitetail tomorrow.

10/14/2008 4:37:31 PM

I guess her problem must be that they raise animals for the sake of dissection because I don't see how cutting open a dead animal is against its rights.

^^LOL

^Holla

I guess students won't actually have to touch anything these days.
they'll just go by guesstimation like a big game of Operation.
we're screwed.

10/14/2008 4:40:19 PM

animals don't have fucking rights. We're at the top of the food chain, it's a biological thing and has nothing to do with ethics.

10/14/2008 4:40:22 PM

I looked at the site a little and apparently these biological supply companies do shit like drown the animals or embalm them alive.

10/14/2008 4:40:46 PM

^^Very True.

i heard the dissection companies bury the animals alive in the dissection kits

and then rape the animals

in their butts

"What happens to the animals before the schools place their orders for bodies? PETA did undercover investigations at biological supply companies, which sell animal bodies and parts, and found nightmarish acts of animal cruelty, including the drowning of rabbits and embalming of cats while they were still alive. Check it out for yourself in this video. "

I checked it out....its just Alicia Silverstone yapping.

10/14/2008 4:46:55 PM

I'm not usually one to comment on another's lack of pulchritude, but this would work much better if she were cute.

10/14/2008 7:15:20 PM

^ Yeah, PETA is getting slack, I thought they only allowed in Hot Chicks that would pose naked for them.

10/14/2008 7:26:53 PM

But you know that she's not keeping this "name."

She got the publicity that she wanted and now she can change it back.

If she does keep it, then

PETA seriously takes a lot of stuff out of proportion. They do do some good work with like animal cruelty where its needed, but this is a bit over the top.

Here, lets tell med students they cant cut open dead humans. Lets see how many ppl have surgery after that.

10/14/2008 7:31:38 PM

ohhs knowz studnets cut up fucking frogs to learn anatomy!!!
We would hate to encourage students in fields like anatomy and biology!
Doctors must magically understand where everything in the body is by reading books in med school!

I hate liberal pussy hippy douches nearly as much as the ignorant evangelist christian right-wing moonbats in our society.

10/14/2008 8:30:55 PM

Wait, I didn't think name changes like this were allowed. Maybe it is different in other states.

10/14/2008 8:32:19 PM

while i respect her opinion that dissection is wrong i think she is going about it in the most fuckin retarded way possible

plus i thought schools already provided alternatives

doctors learn on the cadavers of people who have donated their body to science

how many times do we wait around for a natural death before we dissect lab rats?

10/14/2008 8:33:10 PM

lol @ chicken wings

We cut open a piglet.

It smelled pretty awful and the smell followed you once you left the class, and I didn't really care for it. Learned something though.
