weirdo vegan chick | it doesn't mean you have to question my reasoning every single day... i swear i think i've explained it to my dad and brother 20 thousand times... so either they don't listen or they're just be patronizing. :sigh: |

This! Vegan != organic food. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten people saying "Oh he can't eat that, it's not organic!" |

I am SO glad to hear that others are not necessarily 100% pro PETA. Some of their views and actions really bother me. Especially since it casts a stereotype of all animal lovers/activists. It doesn't mean I will judge you for eating meat, but I will threaten to cut you if you are an annoying human. I do love most animals more than most humans after all!! |

It doesn't mean I'll throw a fit or become preachy if you eat meat in front of me. It doesn't mean that I like Boca burgers. |

+1 Just because I can't eat anything when I go to a lousy chain restaurant with you & happen to mention that I also dislike tomatoes & condiments does not equal picky eating! |

LOVE the salad one, I get that constantly. Also add ...that doesn't mean I'm a picky eater (I eat a larger array of foods than meat-eaters thank you very much!) |

I may be vegetarian but... I won't cry if you eat meat infront of me (but now suggested I might do it for the hell of it) I won't freak out if I accidentaly eat a bug (more than you would) I'm not gonna "go all hippie" on you. I haven't seen the animal torture videos and I'm not gonna force you to see them |
09-12-2011 12:21 PM | |
Diamond | It doesn't mean that I've seen those violent, slaughterhouse videos(I became a vegetarian because I simply read about what goes on in those places) |

That I want to stand outside KFC during a blizzard holding up protest signs with you. That I want to be harassed by you because I don't feel comfortable participating in such public attention drawing activism. (I met an activist who assumed I was one also just because I am vegetarian.) |

vettechinhippie | CindyLennyCleo - You're vegetarian for ethical reasons, though. There are many vegetarians in the world and there are many people with eating disorders in the world and while many people with eating disorders are vegetarian for ethical reasons, vegetarianism and eating disorders are not mutually exclusive. |

I always feel bad for perpetuating that stereotype and being the vegetarian with an eating disorder. They really aren't related though! |

My mom even had to vouch for me that I'm an ethical vegetarian. The dietitian still kept trying to get me to eat fish though. Ugh. This is a huge pet peeve of mine. For some reason people who are not familiar with both automatically assume that vegetarianism is an eating disorder or that people who are vegetarian have an eating disorder. |
