Answers:
You are a normal person and people judge you because they get some strange idea in their little heads that caring about animals is weird!. Be veggie and be proud of it!
Humans are supposed to eat at least 95% fruit and veg, if not 100%, so be proud you are healthier than they are!.
And be proud you are saving 5854 animals by going veggie(:Www@FoodAQ@Com

You're either hanging out with the wrong people or you're giving them a reason not to accept you by living up to the negative stereotypes people have about veg*nism (that we are pushy or judgemental!.)
I have been veg*n for over two decades and no one have EVER not "accepted me as a person" because I didn't eat meat!. Most people never have occasion to even know I'm veg*n unless it comes up naturally in conversation!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Those just don't understand!. I used to find that people thought I must be a hippie of some sort and didn't understand that I can't bear animals to suffer!. I was also always offered fish when I went to my friends' houses as a 'veggie' alternative!. Fortunately fish as a so-called veggie option is only offered in very few restaurants nowadays!.
I was called fussy by some people too for not eating meat!. It's got a lot better in recent years for us veggies in terms of understanding and choice in shops and restaurants!. Focus on the positives and the negatives will iron themselves out in time!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because meat is an extremely important part of western food culture!. Eating meat is also seen to be natural!. What we eat is part of the food chain!. People may see you being a vegetarian (although this is not my standpoint) as a reflection either of you being weak minded and too sensitive to the realities of the world or high and mighty!. I myself am not a vegetarian but no one sees things exactly the same and unfortunately you are in the minority making it easier for them to judge you for being a vegetarian!. The minority is often more harshly judgedWww@FoodAQ@Com
From your statement or question, I would have judged you to be an annoying, full of yourself teenager!.!. Just a coincidence that you are a vegetarian!.!.
Didn't you just judge them yourself by calling them judgmental meat obsessed annoying people!? maybe they were not judging you for being a vegetarian per se but your attitude in general/Www@FoodAQ@Com

In Japan they have a saying:
"The nail that sticks out gets pounded back in"
So it has prob nothing to do specifically that you are a veg but that you are doing something that is different from the them!. Life is full of choices!.
I once knew someone for two years before I found out he was a veggie!. He didn't hide it but it just never came up in conversation!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Don't worry about it, I think every Vegetarian gets it at some point, people don't like change, or people being different!.
I got accused of being an attention seeker because i turned vegetarian!. A girl said that 60% of Vegetarians are teenage girls who think they are overweight and want attention!.!.!., even though i'd been one for 3 months before I told any of my friends !.!.!. And I'm not overweight by any means!.
People just want to act smart, and think that everyone should be the same!.
Just ignore them :) That's what I do!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's the same here!! My Algebra class found out about me being a vegetarian and all of a sudden i was the center of attention and people were asking me questions!. They constantly remind me I'm "weird" (I AM NOT) They think it's weird or abnormal!. I constantly defend myself and i plan to keep it a secret that I've gone vegan when i see them all in August for school!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Only the idiots do!. They also happen to be the loudest, so it only seems that way!. They can't stand the thought of someone not going along with the flow!. Anything different is to be shunned and ridiculed ( 'cause THAT'S how you get people to see things your way <--sarcasm)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I know how you feel!. People can be so frustrating!. They just can't keep their opinions to themselves!. It bothers people when we go against what they believe in!. We are all people!. Eating meat or not eating meat is a personal choice!. I definitely think that meat eaters bother vegans/vegetarians a lot more than vegan/vegetarians bother meat eaters!. I don't care what anyone else eats!. However, I am really proud to be a vegan!. It makes me feel really good about myself and I have never been healthier!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
From what I have gathered from watching this area - and the real world that I live in - compared the two - - the only people that seem to have this problem are those that are rather young!.
Get older more mature friends - - or at the worst - - know that it gets better when people get older!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i find it really annoying as well!. All my friends lecture me, and i get so annoyed that i have to walk away!. People shouldn't judge you because of the choices that you make!. I just ignore the comments and don't let them faze me, i just keep on being who i want to be!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Lol i mean this in the nicest way possible but quite frankly i could not care less it makes no difference if you eat meat or not, i forget out of my friends who does and doesnt eat meat, are you making a deal of it!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Because they are threatened and secretly feel bad about eating meat!. It's like homophobia for meat-eaters!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

They just think your diffrent but they don't relize how much trouble and pain animals go throu when being killed for the cravings of some of usWww@FoodAQ@Com
I dont believe they do! they may make jokes about you going outside to graze but thats called banter no one thinks someone is inferior because all they eat is rabbit food ;-)Www@FoodAQ@Com
I have lots of friends that are vegetarians and some are vegan, I don't treat them any different than my carnivore friends!. What you eat doesn't matter, we are all the same!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't eat innocent animals, just Guilty animals!.I am sorry I have no way of judging you at all I don't even know you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
What sort of Veggie are you!? A carrot!? A potato!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
i suppose its not natural; humans have canine teeth which are designed for eating meat and meat is good for a balanced dietWww@FoodAQ@Com
Most people do not know how to think for themselves and are mean !. That's why!. Ignore them!. They are not worth your time!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
