I never get the reaction i want/figured i'd get when i tell ppl i'm a vegetarian. I tend to get a lot of:
O.o "...but young girls need thier protein..."
and "nothing compares to meat!" and "oh, ok! Here, have some chicken!"

People just ignore or tell me it's stupid to be a vegetarian. And I get alot of "Mmmmm...COW!" *sprinkled with sarcasm* Are there any veggie-heads out there that can relate?

P.S: I just passed my 1st anniversary for being a vegetarian and my grandparents STILL seriously offer me meat....and they live 3 houses down from me. But i kind of excuse them cuz, well, they're old.

I'm not even a vegetarian and I think it's totally rude. People shouldn't swing food in front of other people's faces when it makes them sick...

Well, it seems that you think you deserve some sort of special treatment for your personal choice. Which is ridiculous. Intentional or not, vegetarians tend to have an air of elitism when they talk about their own vegetarianism which generally offputs people to caring about it at all.

Also, in response to Shannen, it's a double standard to say it's totally alright for the average vegetarian to tell everyone else that they need to be a vegetarian but that everyone else can't have meat around vegetarians or jokingly push it on them.

And that, mi amigos, is the way the cookie crumbles.

95% of kids laugh at other kids because they are different. Copy this into your profile if you are a part of the 5% that laughs at the other 95% because they're all the same.

....I truly don't know what to say to that....probably something like "you know I'm not that type" or "do you really get that immpression from me?" or "have I really said that?"
