I hear you. I was raised vegetarian (mom is awesome) and have flip flopped between that and veganism my whole life. Growing up meatless and male has been a weird experience, with countless people telling me I'm not manly be cause I don't eat dead animals. Wtf.

Sadly, I've also received the opposite, telling me I don't really care because I'm not vegan enough (sigh)

  • Remind yourself that a lot of people fall into the trap of boosting themselves at the expense of others around them because it's a low-hanging-fruit way to make themselves feel better. Their comments aren't really about you. Someone's always going to judge, no matter what we do. At least you try, that *is *worth something.
