Please explain to me as to why...?

The people who eat meat and come into the Vegetarian and Vegan sections, and poke fun at as, do that. There are tons and tons of famous actors and actresses that are, and I bet some of them would be their favorites too.

Update:

My point is, you come on here and disagree with our views and disrespect us. It takes respect to like someones work, so that means you respect the person which includes vegetarianism/veganism. Isn't that a bit hypocritical? And assuming they do it for hollywood is a very rude assumption might i add. I assume you come on V&V and harass because your penis isn't a good size and it makes you feel better.

Doesn't feel too good does it?

Update 2:

he was insulting hollywood because he believed that them being a veg was for publicity, well I think he comes in here being rude because he's embarassed by his penis size.

If you don't like vegetarians or vegans then why come in this section? and even more so, why come in here and harass us asking questions about steak and hamburgers? I know if there was a section dedicated to eating meat, i would not go in there to tell them to become a vegan.

and buddy, **** you too.

    Yea, some are bullies.

    But the sad thing about this forum is, some of them really believe they are right and don't want us to make the same mistake that past vegitarians made. I guess they don't realize that the "mistake" resulted in a healthy life.

    "I just think it's a dumb thing to do "

    Then you don't know what it is. It's the natural diet of humans. Even if it wasn't, it's still not dangerous because everything in meat is in plant food(the animals that people eat are "vegans").

    Dumb is: lowering the quality of your life just because of a meat habit that humans picked up during the ice age.

    okay, what's your point? just because I like someone's work doesn't mean I have to agree with their personal views. besides, I'd be willing to bet many of those people only do it for the publicity/hollywood ****.......

    plus, there are also a whole bunch of famous Scientologists that I like, but I also believe that Scientology is the stupidest thing on the face of the earth...... go figure

    it is completely possible to respect someone and disagree with them at the same time. if you cannot understand that, you are a complete idiot. everyone has different views and opinions. personally I don't judge someone based on just what they do...... I try to give them a chance at least. for example, if someone told me they were pro gun control, that is something I am against. that doesn't mean that I will hate the person and never speak to them again. get a grip.

    by the way, just before you can retaliate again, I don't hate you because you are a vegatarian, I just think it's a dumb thing to do and I don't condone it. stop being crazy. if you wanted the opinion of only vegatarians on this thread, you should have said so. I put in my .02 and I get insulted. **** you.

    you have nothing to say to my post other than I have a small penis. I can see you are a very educated person. I insulted Hollywood? Damn, I'm such a terrible guy. Again, I state my opinion and you come back with something completely unnecessary and dumb. My penis size is of no concern to you nor is it even relevant here. Next time you comment please have something educated to say.

    what's penis got to do with vegetarianism?

    ??? i'm a vegetarian of 25 years.. i have a penis.. no complaints about it either... been married to the same female for 15 years.. she has always been happy with me and my penis.. even my penis is happy.. it pee's when it wants to.. it behaves it'self most times.. it doesn't cause trouble.. it never even talks back to me.

    it's been kind and generous for a long time. even when i was beating it often. it put up with many things from me and others.. it is a happy, quiet.. vegetarian penis of a good size.. not all vegetarian men have small wankers. sorry...

    i think if my penis cared.. it would give you a talking to.. but it doesn't feel like it.. i just wants to stay in my jammy jams for now and relax.. and maybe pee once more before beddy bye time.... there.. enough of that penis talk.

    (no he doesn't have a name.. i don't do that.)

    and just because an actor does it.. doesn't mean it's ok.. or that someone else should.. not even actors can tell another what to do.. nor are they always right like the rest of us. we are wrong sometimes..

    just because a troll comes into the vegan forum.. and starts ranting, raving and wants to be insulting and start a fight.. doesn't mean you have to acknowlege them... ignore them.. they're just attention whores..

    they'll get over it.. once they find a purpose in life and realize that.. if they choose something freely.. and then make fun of another.. that they're being an ignoramus... and a hypocrit.. they have nothing better to do.. in their time.. or they want to stir up trouble. don't give in if you don't want to play their game..

    simple as that.. if you want to fight sure.. give them all the time in the world..

    this not just happens to us.. but with those in religion.. those who have certain sexual preferences.. those who like many things.. there's always someone there to pick on them.

    no big deal.

    if you're a veggie head.. go ahead.. no one will stop you but yourself.

    you are your own person.. right?

    so there.. :D

    Sometimes they may have honest questions that they ask out of curiosity, but other times they are like the school bullies who pick on the unpopular kids. People like that are lower on the evoluntionary scale as far as I am concerned.

    I don't believe in astrology, but I don't go on that section just to make fun of people who do.

    There are similiar "trolls" in other sections:

    Religion and Spirtuality has people who are there to insult people who have different religious beliefs, and atheists who are there to insult religious people.

    Mental Health has people who say there is no such thing as mental illness or they say demeaning things to people who seem to have real problems.

    I guess people like to make fun of stuff they don't know about.I think some people do it also because they feel bad for eating meat,but they don't have the willpower to be a vegetarian,like this one chick posted on here "How do you like your steak?" but then in some of her other questions she talked about how bad animal cruelty was.

    I agree with "manjun99". However, it seems to me that V&V has more trolls than some of the other forums. And it seems to me that the number of trolls are in direct proportion to the number of fanatics. There really seems to be more fanatics on V&V. It just seems that way.

  • The majority of Hollywood are complete idiots. There is no reason to be proud of associating yourself with them.

    And your penis comment isn't insulting; it's just odd.
