Hi,
I am new to this forum, but I have been a vegetarian for about 2 years now. I love being vegetarian and I feel healthy as a result. I am interested in learning about vegan's views about vegetarians and if they have any hostility towards vegetarians.

Well, I've been a vegetarian for about 4 months and my family is ok with it. They don't really like it but they accept it because it makes me happy. But my friends don't support me. They say that I'm weird and somehow "UnAmerican". That's why I joined this group.
