I hate it when someone archly asks me whether I'm 'being good' when I don't eat something I didn't want to eat in the first place
You and me both. My personal favorite is the people who assume that I must be a tight-lipped, prudish, conservative vegetarian (!) who Disapproves Of Fun because I don't drink alcohol. I keep my alcohol consumption to no more than one because it turns my face purple and blotchy and makes me sleepy and dizzy, rather than tipsy and sociable. I eat meat, have liberal, pragmatic attitudes towards sex, and do not care at *all* if other people want to drink, take drugs, shag a different person every night, etc.etc.
Ugh
