So, here’s the deal: my sister (21F) recently became a hardcore vegan, and it’s causing major drama in our family. She’s always been passionate about her beliefs, but now she’s taken it to a whole new level.

Last weekend, we had a family barbecue, and my sister refused to attend because we were grilling meat. She claimed it was unethical and she couldn’t be around it. Fine, her choice, right? But here’s where it gets spicy.

She’s been pestering me (27F) and my fiance (28M) about our diet choices, trying to guilt-trip us into going vegan too. She sends us graphic videos of animal cruelty and lectures us about the environmental impact of eating meat. She even said she won’t come to our house anymore if we continue eating animal products.

I lost my temper and told her that she can’t impose her vegan lifestyle on our family and that she’s being overly dramatic. I may have used some choice words in the heat of the moment. Now, she’s telling the entire family that I’m insensitive and disrespectful.

I believe in respecting her choices, but she’s going way too far by trying to dictate what we eat and making ultimatums. AITA for telling my vegan sister she can’t impose her lifestyle on my family?
