What is your opinion on vegans?

Question

I am a vegan.

And I get made fun of because of that.

So I want to know what you think of it.

Answer 1

I think they are doing what they feel is right. which i respect

I don't respect vegans that look down upon others because of their choices though.... I guess i think it the other way too, i would look down upon any non-vegetarian/vegan that didn't respect the choice of a vegetarian/vegan

Answer 2

If they could see it the way we do they would understand.  Half the time the people who make fun of us are just trying to defend themselves.  If more people knew what animals went through to get onto their plate there would be more vegetarians.

You rock, we rock, GO VEG!!!

Don't listen to them.  Their words will only make you stronger in the end.  Once your out of school you will be able to surround yourself with better people who won't make fun of you.

Answer 3

Don't worry about the ones who criticized you for wanting live a healthy life style. They're ignorant and do not understand your reasons for doing this. If anything, you should be making fun of them for being oblivious to the fact that veganism is healthy and GREEN (lol).

-Oh and don't actually make fun of them, lol. That may cause a riot!

Answer 4

I honestly think people who make fun of you for being a vegan are jealous of your will power, your integrity, your sincerity, and your compassion.  Why else would they make fun?  You're not hurting anyone--in fact you're helping animals and the environment.  People may resent someone who is self-righteous, obnoxious and judgemental and that's the only thing I can think of that would cause someone to make fun of someone else-but most vegans are just normal people who happen to believe in something.

Answer 5

I am personally a meat eater but i don't mind vegetarians or vegans if they don't want to eat meat they dont have two the only odd yhing with me is how can vegans go with out drinking milk

Hope it helped thx!

Answer 6

I think vegans are really quite awesome! Only if everyone was vegan this world would rock so much!

Answer 7

Lets see how it is when we are 50 and go for a jog by their house and wave while they are hooked up to oxygen tanks.

Answer 8

You are fabulous , because you love animals for life not there flesh. I think people have tunnel vision and think vegans look a certain way. Vegan only means you do not eat animals or by products of animals. Who ever picks on you sucks, accept it and get friends who like you for you. Maybe they feel gulity because you do not harm and they do.

Answer 9

why is it that almost all emos are vegans?

and also, we are naturally made to eat meat. There's nothing wrong with it.

Answer 10

you rock, not only do you have lots of willpower, you are saving alot of animals from cruelty in slaughterhouses.

those people that make fun of you are probably jealous because they know that your way of living is way better than thier heart attack waiting to happen selves.

Answer 11

I'm a vegan too. Don't pay attention to the people who make fun of you 'cause of it. We are awesome and healthier. We'll live longer unlike the MEAN omnivores.. If they make fun of you, say "have fun with your heart disease"

Haha, but only to the mean meat eaters.. To the rest, they are cool and friendly. :)

GO VEG!

You're a great girl, dont listen to any body who makes fun of you.

Answer 12

hm.not bad.its a healthy diet.keep on

Answer 13

I'd love to become Vegan but I am honestly not certain I could handle it, because I love cheese and bread and stuff, and I am a rather picky eater. So for now I'll stick with my Vegetarian diet, but that's great that you are one :D

Answer 14

I don't think you should get made fun of just  because you have chosen to be vegan. I only make fun of my vegan friends when they are unreasonable--mainly to try to break tension.  Here's an example of what I consider unreasonable: traipsing to 12 restaurants in one night and grilling the hostess about the menu before finally finding one we could eat at b/c that person didn't like any of the vegan options available. If you're a reasonable person and don't impose your divine vegan-ness on others, I don't see why people should care.  I think it's admirable to stand up for what you believe is healthy for you no matter what your diet.

Answer 15

I love Veg@ns!! Plus I am a Veg@n and I wish somebody would make fun of me for it. I put on a big smile and say "Thanks!! At least i don't have rotting meat in my stomach!!" But seriously with no offense to meat-eaters!

Answer 16

good for you!  we where never designed to eat meat!

Answer 17

i am not a vegan.dont give me a thumbs down for that. but i do have tons of friends who are.  there fore if i were a clown i expect them to support me in that if i support that for them . as long as they are them then i love them. i was once a vegan but..... i gave it up dont know why. if i could see ghost and told you would you think im a freak??well i cant but it really is about the type of people they are.

Answer 18

Why in the world would someone make fun of it? I only wish I had the discipline you have. It's great and I'm proud of you! You'll probably live longer than them!

Answer 19

We're awesome.

Don't let other people bring you down. You'll probably live longer than them anyways.
