Vegetarians???

Why are some of vegetarians so concieted, they turn up ther noses at me when I eat a ham sandwich! Then they start talking about how animals suffer and are tortured to become food blah, blah, blah while I am eating!! They claim to not use any animal products at all but I don't think that is possible, there are too many. I also think some people claim to be vegetarians because they are anorexic. What do you think??

1. It is simple... they believe they are right, but are so closed minded they refuse to think that ALL opinions (and tastes) are "right". I'm not a vegetarian but my daughter is. She certainly doesn't spout off when people eat meat, and I certainly don't get all huffy if a vegetarian decides to eat soy. Edit: By the way, forgot to mention... my daughter became vegetarian for health reasons, and is most certainly not anorexic!
2. I am a vegeterian and i tolerate other peole eating meat around otherwise its just rude....I dont know bout that last comment though
3. I'm vegetarian because I choose to be, but I never make comments at anyone else. And I'm not anorexic but at a healthy weight (not at thin as I would like to be). My boyfriend loves a good steak and when we cook out, I throw a veggie burger on the grill and join him along with a beer. Not everyone is that way and I would just respond to them by saying that you respect their choices, so can they please respect yours and let you enjoy you lunch?
4. being a vegetarian and being anorexic are two completely different things. as as vegetarian and an anorexia sufferer for ten years, my anorexia had nothing to do with being a vegetarian. anorexia is a very deep dark illness that many people fail to understand.
5. i am a vegetarian by choice, but i do not look down on other people for eating meat. it's not my place to decide what people put in their mouths, plus it's just rude. i am sorry that you have had a bad experience with vegetarians in the past, but please don't label us all conceited and rude. i don't label you anything just because you eat meat... did you ever stop to consider that the people who where looking down on you because you where eating meat look down on everyone for everything?? :)
