In Australia there are heaps of people like that. My Dad is probaly the worse, being Italian and all it's to him something different is the end of the world. My friends are really good coz  I help them out all the time and in respect they leave me be. If anyone goes to bag me about it, I simply say I'm not a Monster.(coz i know wat happens2 animals) Or I simply spill y knowledge on them till they throw up.

One day though  a kid (his sickin the head) said to me, it doesn't matter they are dead and his girlfriend (fake barbie doll) said who cares its not me. I simply smiled and askd her wat brand her make up is. And told her wat happens to the animals tested. She ran to the bathroom!! I turned to the boyfriend and told him a little bit about it but he said I was just making up shit and that if you dont eat meat you die. I told him I'm leaving proof of being alive and vegetrian. He then said so, animals dont feel pain and if they did they could talk to us. I let that slide as his a thick head.

The worse people are Europeans, I am one, Italian, they can't handle change or different and go on about it so much. I told my Aunty she is being stupid, I dont even feel like is a big deal and she is like I justwant to see you healthy. I find that you can show all alternatives of food to Italians but they just wont accept it. I.e; chucking meat in my food as soon as I look away. I've simply grown over them.

So at the end of the day I know how you feel but your always going to find those people.

I've heard so many remarks similar to that. Like you'll die. Not normal. Freak. But all of it is from the plastic people of my high school anyways.

I've never understood people like that. Although I disagree with their diet, I have never attack them - the person. But i think, at least I hope, they feel bad once they have time to think about it. It doesn't make sense attacking someone who is just try to do something nice, whether for humans or animals.

puzzling indeed.  confused

I dont even bring it up while people are eating or try and bag them or chane their mind about it. They just constantly have shots at me coz they dont like I'm different.

You know, I find that meateaters are always the ones who bring up veg*ism, and start their taunts, when food is around! It's so frustrating! I would like to eat my tofu in peace, dammit!

I eat some fake meats but tend to use tempeh and tvp more. But at the moment I'm loving Lamyong Mushroom Chunks!!!

I usually buy fake meats like sausages and patties when we go camping as they're quick & easy to cook.

Mmm i do eat the fake meats because they made the transition much easier. And they dont hurt anything but i can also understand where you are comming from. I hate the "plastic" people at our school. One girl popped off to me one day pretending like she didnt know i was there and i finally just blurted out "do you have an effin problem with me? Just because i have a different lifestyle doesnt give you the right to give me sh** about it, and you're too mucha coward to bring it to my face." well lets just say the girl and i havent had a problem about that from then on happy There are some people you just have to call out on their crap and they will let you be

but others are much more difficult. And oh animals cant feel pain? Then why if one is accidentally stepped on it squeals and shrieks horribly ya know? some people are just so ignorant..... happy

thats such shit..if theyve ever had a companion animal theyd know. they probablly do realise they can feel pain just wont accept it because it leaves them an excuse that they try to use to justify eating meat. simply idiots.
