Why are Vegans so Vocal About Being Vegan?
Vegans and Their Big Mouths
Thank you for the question.
Based on the questions regarding the topic of enthusiastic, if not assertive vegans, I see here on quora it seems that the ilk must exist somewhere. It is my experience to have never met a vegan who made their choice a big deal.
In my own life, unless I am asked about my choice to enjoy a vegan lifestyle, I don’t talk about it. Perhaps it is the length of time I have been vegan that results in the behaviors that arise from my commitment seeming to deserve the same attention from others as does what sox I am wearing.
My experience aside, perhaps, I am guessing, it is a need to convince others to be vegan that drives the boisterous sharing about which you are asking? Perhaps it is an insecurity about the choice to be vegan that is compensated for by being loud about it?
It would be interesting to learn from you what response you receive when you ask a vocal vegan the question directly.
Thanks again for the question and may you be surrounded by vegans and never know it ;-)
