No
there are some people who call themselves vegetarians and eat fish, but they are pescarians (sp)
A vegetarian does not eat meat, fish, poulty nor slaughter by-products.

Its been that way since 1847.
Remember there is no such thing as semi, pesci, demi, part, flexi...vegetarian. They are all corruptions of the word vegetarian and have no real meaning other than on websites. you will not find them in real dictionaries

Well, some people who eat fish call themselves vegetarian, but they're not.
I'm not hating, I'm just asking people to stop misleading others. If someone who eats fish calls himself vegetarian, that confuses things for people who truly are vegetarian.

NO!!! The term "vegetarian" was coined in the 1840s by the people who started the Vegetarian Society in England to describe someone who abstains from eating ANY and ALL flesh (beef, pork, fish, poultry, etc.). If you eat ANY flesh at all, you're NOT a vegetarian!

No! A fish eater is a piscivore.

Yes, because vegetarians who eat fish are for Catholics or Christians religious purpose(s). Some vegetarians eat fish because they are must healthier than red meat, and these vegetarians are not 100 % vegan who eat non-meat only.

there are no set rules, eat what you want. if you listen to very many people, you will die of hunger, as you try to figure out the rules. everyone trhings the way they do it is right and all others are wrong. it is like religion.
