Yes!. I especially hate it when they ask, but before I can answer they say "it's not because of animal rights or anything like that, is it!?"
I mean, why is it alright if I don't eat meat based on taste preference or religious reasons, but somehow it's not alright if it's for animal rights!?
Some people disgust me!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, I don't hate it!. I don't think people generally ask because it's bizarre, per se, but because you may be the only vegetarian they know!. We are a small minority of the population and we've made a decision to live differently than most people, and sometimes people are curious about it!. Anyway, get used to it because it's not going to stop happening any time soon!. If they ask nicely, tell them nicely!. If they are rudely, you can just decline to discuss it with them!.

Yes it's annoying! It's annoying because they are really not open-minded and interested in knowing!. They are asking because they want to argue and are looking for holes in my explanation to confirm their belief that vegetarianism is wrong!. What I say isn't going to change their mind because it's already made up!. I can explain any way possible, and they are still going to wish that I ate meat, as if it affects them or something!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes and no-
All of my friends at one point have asked me, and I found it a great way to teach them!. Two of my close friends have gone vegetarian after hearing my perspective and one of my close friends have gone pesco-vegetarian!. If anything, it is, as I've said before, a great way to show people the benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle!.
The thing that I hate, though, is when small minded people ask me why I'm a vegetarian, and immediatly judge me!. Both of my bosses do this all the time and it really frustrates me!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I always love to ask vegans why they chose that lifestyle!. They always have really interesting answers, and most have been happy to tell me!. I've gotten some really interesting stories, but I only ask when I have gotten to know them well enough!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
haha yeah! especially when they lecture you about why its not good to be a vegetarian: like oh, you probably don't get enough protein!. I've even heard someone tell me its wrong because it puts humans on the same level as animals!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
tell me about it, it is like isn't it obvious, and nowadays, practically everyone is vegetarian!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes, very much!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
