Talk Or Not To Talk The Veggie Talk

When you are a veggie, should you talk about that whenever you have the oportunity, such as when your non-veggie family or co-workers invite you for a non-veggie dinner ?
Or should you be silent and don’t bother your non veggie friends with your diferent lyestyle ?

Most western veggies really talk the talk to just anyone and everywhere. A restaurant not serving at least a few veggie dishes ? Veggies always complained loudly about that. The result is that restaurants have listened and now at least most restaurants serve some veggie options.
Western veggies are loudmouths, maybe not always polite, but it works.

Barbie Hsu, and other celebrities, openly and actively support vegetarianism.

Many japanese veggies on the other hand, seem to rather prefer not to talk about there veggie lyfestyle with their non veggie friends, co workers, or in a non veggie restaurant. It seems better to just join and dont talk veggie, because people might think you are strange. A Japanese veggie i know, even did eat meat because she was invited at a dinner and she wanted to “respect” the family and don’t be rude.

What is your opinion, should veggies talk the veggie talk or be silent ?
