Why do meat eaters get so angry when you ask them why they eat meat?!


Question: As we all know, eating meat is not natural and eating meat eventually leads to death. Our teeth are not designed for eating meat, despite the lies perpetuated by meat eaters claiming we have dog fangs for tearing meat. Does anyone know why meat eaters get so angry when you ask them why they eat meat? Is it because they feel guilty?

a vegetarian/vegan diet is a heathier one than a meat eating diet, even my doctor fully approves my vegan diet!
i think meat eaters get angrier when asked about their diet because they know(or should know) that animals have suffered so they can 'enjoy' their meat.
personally i think veggies/vegans get more hassle from meat eaters because of their diet, they dont seem to understand that you can eat and be happy and healthy without contibuting to animal suffering or maybe they would really like to be a...........veggie!!! :) not arguing with anyone just my point of view! :)
knew the thumbers down would do it! lots of dead flesh eaters in here tonight! :)))))
they also get angry when you ask them why they get angry, must be all the additives in the meat!
p.s love the extra notes christy! spot on! :)

Are you trolling? I promise, eating all veggies also eventually leads to death. Eating meat is perfectly natural for primates.

Its because its a stupid question. Why do you eat food? Meat tastes nice and normal people just think meat as any other food, after all its just food

Maybe because you try to supply them with stupid incorrect facts

I only get angry at vegetarians that try to guilt me into becoming a vegetarian too. I eat meat because it is delicious.

Why do they get mad? They resent being scolded by a busybody like yourself.

Oh, by the way: vegetarians don't live forever, either.

im guessing because its like food for them.. and you can't force them to be vegetarians if they are so used to meat..

I think your science is wrong. Humans are omnivores not herbivores. If people are upset, its because they don't agree with you. C'est la vie.

because they feel your encouraging them to become vegetatrians?
by the way what do you mean by eating meat is not natural?
thats nonsense!!

The meat brings out the feisty beast in me within moments of eating it, like the Incredible Hulk or Popeye... It's a carnivore thing, you wouldn't understand.

IDK why but I just get tired of everyone asking me why don't I eat meat. But my friends eat meat and they dont get mad when i ask them

I just eat roadkill

I don't get angry or feel guilty. I eat meat because I like it and it's my choice, just as it's the choice of a vegetarian not to. We just have to agree to disagree.

I'm not a big meat eater, and I think one reason could be that it is the way we've been brought up and we don't really know how eat tasty and nutritious vegetarian dishes. Other than that, and in the nicest possible way, it could be because it is personal to them and non of your business.

Obviously it's because of the way you ask the question. That is, you're baiting them. In fact, you're not asking a question at all; you're making an attack with a question mark at the end.

Here, I'll show you an example....

Does anyone know why self-righteous ignorami who want to impose their own stupidity on the majority of people who are more intelligent than they are accuse others of being unnatural when they are doing what is absolutely natural? Is it because they are stupid, or is it because they have no way to deal with reality?

I wouldnt get angry i'd just tell you to mind your own damn business.

What does anyone elses eating habits have to do with you ?

No-one has to justify anything.

Eating veggy foods eventually leads to death too-funny that!

hey christy sorry but you are misinformed I choose not to eat meat Your teeth do have incisors to tear Ideal for meat everything leads to death and you wont do vegetarians any favours with these outbursts Hey we all have a CHOICE

Homo Sapien is an omnivore. Seriously, are you asking a question, or are you just spewing an uneducated rant just to get the attention that you never got from your father?

I think its because your "reasoning" for not eating meat is flawed at best. I think most people (omnivours by the way) don't care what you eat. But the judgement you telegraph probably upsets them. Humans do have canines, teeth aside we also have forward facing eyes and laid back ears, traits common with most mammal predators. Enjoy your decision not to eat meat, save your judgement of those who do.

Thats not true, we have teeth and stomachs that are
capable of eating a very mixed range of foods to survive. If we were just meant to eat carrots we would have stomachs like cows, if we were just meant to eat meat we would have teeth like cats and dogs.

Our reasons not to eat meat are based on moral decisions over the suffering of animals, but even then it is a decision only open to those who have enough food to eat to be privaledged to make that moral judgement and live..

I eat meat and I don't get angry when people ask me why it is because I like the taste and will continue to eat meat, who know's what we are designed to eat and not eat obviously people ate meat from the word go and we are not desgined to eat chocolate and candy floss but we do! Meat eating is a part of life as much as sex is and no body has the right to judge anybody!

I don't get angry. I love meat! This works both ways - vegetarians get very uptight when asked how do they survive on pulses and veg alone!

No, it is not because they feel guilty, it is probably because you come across as aggressive. You may not realise, but even your question reads aggressively . Attack the meat eaters, they are gullible (for believing the perpetuated lies) and not natural and are going to die.

As soon as you attack with words, the meat eaters go into defence mode. No wonder they get angry, why are you right and they are wrong?
The fact is everyone chooses what to eat. I certainly wouldnt appreciate your judgement. I shouldnt have to justify my food choices and neither should anyone else.

What do you use your teeth for - you reckon you just drink juice, so your teeth are obsolete aren't they. What kind of exercise do your jaws get, apart from whinging about meat eaters. I'll bet your dentist shudders every time you book in!

they get angry because you are stupid. sorry to be harsh but you cant change peoples eating habits. leave them alone

Actually, I'm a vegetarian, and a biology graduate student. Some of our teeth ARE designed for eating meat (the canines). Some are also designed for grinding plant foods (the molars). We evolved from omnivores, so it is only natural that we have teeth for eating both plants and animals. We also have digestive systems capable of breaking down meat and plants. Get your facts straight before entering into an argument.

Don't provoke people with questions like these, it is your decision to eat meat or not, and if they want to be unhealthy and kill defenseless animals, they can. There is nothing you can do about it. But provoking them will only make you and them angry and stressed out. Why do you want to upset people? Why not try to accept people for who they are? Is it that hard to understand why people want to eat meat? They like it! I like the taste of meat, and I'm a vegetarian (I ate it before I became one)!

It's THEIR choice. Let them live with the moral and physical consequences of what they eat, it really doesn't concern you. Your attitude makes gives vegetarians a bad reputation!

P.S. Everything leads to death. We're all going to die, no matter how healthily we live.

I used to be a meat-eater and around a year ago I become vegan. I remember I was particularly annoyed when people asked me that question why I was eating mean. Why? Because I thought its natural for human to eat it and we can't survive without it. After doing some extensive research and by all means trying to justify my meat eating habit I found that there is No justification to it. We are not made for eating meat, we started eating it for survival and hooked up. Its particularly horrible for animals and devastating for environment, but most of the people do not know that....

HAHAHAHAHA, this is a funny question. ANYTHING leads to death. I guarentee you, there is a higher chance at dying by a donkey than dyng from meat. God put animals on this earth souly to be eaten. It was humans that domesticated animals. I couldn't imagine eatin a dog, although some countries do. But cows, pigs, chickens, cut 'em up! And our teath ARE designed to eat meat. And I have never ever felt guilty because of eating meat. In fact, I feel guilty when I DON'T eat meat. I think you are just trying to start drama or something.

becuase they know its not natural so they get very defensive.

i wish they could give respectful answers, but no they have to yell and always call me militant.

i didnt know that i wasnt allowed to talk about the benefits of a vegetarian diet and how meat is bad for you...ON A VEGETARIAN SECTION

btw, meat isnt the only thing that leads to death. as a vegan, im gonna die someday. so w.e, were all on the same boat.

Depends on the omnivore I guess. Why are you asking people why the eat meat? I always presume it's because it's the cultural norm and most people have no idea and don't really question anything about their food, they just eat what they're raised on. It's most likely not because they heartless sadists or have a death wish, they just don't know better.

I find it's much more effective to lead by example and answer people's questions if they're interested.
