"I'm vegetarian but I eat fish" is a lot like saying "I'm not vegetarian", amirite?

Wouldn't that make them a flexiterian?

I smack everyone who says "flexitarian" to me. You're either an omnivore or not.

@391223 (LUCAIFUNGI): Exactly(: And if ya wanna get that deep, people that eat eggs aren't veggies. Eggs are just boneless chicken dinner(:

Yeah they are. The egg wasn't fertilized, therefore it wouldn't have been a chicken anyways, so it's okay to eat. And, I'm sort of tired of people making fun of vegetarians. It's not like we all go around yelling at people who eat meat. Some of us mind our own business. I'm soo done with the stereotypes...

Dude, bite me. You must not have known myself and my mother have been pescetarian for over a year. Also, it's called sarcasm!

eggs are animal by-product. you can eat eggs and be vegetarian. you just cant eat eggs and be vegan. Vegans cut out all animal by-products like eggs, dairy, anything fried in animal fat...

I don't eat meat, except for fish. Oh I don't smoke... except for my cigarettes.

The only reason the fish rule came about was because of the piss-poor fish market back in olden days.

Pescetarian as everyone has already said. Got a problem with pescetarianism?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I don't think I do, I have a problem with people who say they're vegetarian when they're not vegetarian though, they're liars.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Actually I'm not a liar because vegetarians can eat fish and still have the right to call themselves vegetarians. Just like you have the right to call yourself an asshole for criticizing someone for something you obviously don't understand.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Something I obviously don't understand? Right yeah, because fish aren't real animals, so their flesh isn't real meat. A vegetarian is someone who doesn't eat meat, someone who does eat meat is not a vegetarian, if someone who does eat meat says they're vegetarian, they're not telling the truth, so they're lying. But what do I know?

I don't eat animals that are raised for slaughter. Animals that have no chance for survival, I'm not demeaning the value of a fishes life but they have a chance to live. Don't question my honesty because one thing I don't do is lie.

I'm sorry, I might have been unclear, I'm not suggesting pescetarians are wrong, or lesser people than vegetarians, all I meant is that a pescetarian is a different thing to a vegetarian, but for some reason people see them as the same thing, and that bothers me. I didn't mean to offend you.

Its okay, it just gets annoying how everyone hates on vegetarians and I've just gotten used to being defensive about it.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

um no they dont have the right to still call themselves vegetarians if they eat fish thats like somebody saying oh im straightedge but i still smoke

To be a vegetarian means you don't eat meat. Fish aren't considered meat, so you can be a vegetarian and eat fish.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Fish are considered meat. Vegetarians don't eat animals in general, not just meat. Fish are also considered animals.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Pescatarianism is a form of vegetarianism where most meat, except fish, is cut out of the diet. It's still a form of vegetarianism, just not purely vegetarianism. Also, I'm a vegetarian and I eat eggs, cheese, and milk. All of which are byproducts of animals, not actually animals themselves.
