For meat-eaters: Do you agree with vegetarian's reasons to be vegetarian? Why are you not a vegetarian?

For Vegetarians: Do you look down upon meat-eaters? Why are you a vegetarian?

I don't care, you do you

Vegetarianism is not for me but to each their own.

why not.

I was trying to be vegeterian when i was young but gave up. now im slowly turning into a pescaterian or w/e as in I am cutting don on meat/chicken and eating more fish and seafood instead. but then again I go back to meat and chicken...w/e

I'm not really into veg

The stomach wants what it wants. I eat an limited amount of meat, but I can never give it up 100%. I really don't care what people choose.

I don't care. But if anyone's ever heard that saying "Religions are like penises. It's fine to have one, but don't whip it out in public or force it down people's throats."

That's how I feel about vegetarianism. If someone exhibits a strong compassion towards animal rights, and they're a meat-eater, then sure, discuss it with them maturely. But don't preach. That's not cute.

I need my protein to grow and I'm not going to stop eating the amount of chicken, tuna and lean read meat that I eat.

I'm vegetarian because I'm deadly allergic to red meat and have mild reactions to white meat. People always assume the worst about me though and it sucks.

I wish I was vegetarian, but I don't have the time and the resources, I tried once without supervision and it didn't work out, I didn't feel well and probably the reason was that I wasn't feeding myself properly. I often have to eat on restaurants on my college that don't support vegetarianism so that's what I mean by "no resources".
If I could make sure I would be vegetarian and have a diet that gave me all the nutrients I needed, I would cause I believe in their philosophy.

PETA however is another story.

There's advocating for the humane treatment of animals, and then there's a group that ends up annoying people.PETA is the latter.

Hopefully, many vegeterians and vegans don't adapt to PETA's style of getting their point across.

I tried to avoid meat for a short period. But after I read articles about fytoestrogenes in soya, I rather prefer balanced diet with both meat and vegetable.

Who has time for vegetarianism? Have a hot dog.

I dont know how in NY. But to supply all essential amino acids, some vitamins (especially B12), some minerals (all what meat contains in the same proportion as we have in our body) from natural products, becomes really financially demanding, especially for students. You should also eat certified products, because genetically modified ones with intransparent production are probably not the good ones.

And probably the biggest reason why all people wont become vegetarians - taste. Great steak is probably the best meal you can get, at least for me.

Of course I don't look upon meat-eaters, I would be enemies with 90% of the world if I did

I'm vegan and yes I look down upon meat eaters/vegetarians.
