You can call yourself anything you'd like. Doesn't make it the truth.

If you want to irritate the real vegetarians.
Only other people who eat animals think a vegetarian diet includes fish.

No. A vegetarian does not eat meat, fish are animals, so...
But i went to school for restaurant management and when i was serving fine dining dinners, we had lots of vegetarians that would order and the chef gave them salmon or lobster for example, and they would eat it so, i guess its more of a personal choice.

fish are animals so no you are not a vegetarian if you eat fish. If people chose to be vegetarians that is their choice and their right. They just should not expect me to accommodate them. And I really don't want them trying to convert me like it's some religion.

Why not? Catholics give up meat on lent but are allowed to eat fish. Jesus and his followers caught the fish. Jesus made multples of bread and fish. I would think vegetarians are allowed to eat fish. Its not considered meat, it is not a mammal. I think the word your looking for is and someone help me out here. Vegan? They don't eat any animals of any sort? Perhaps, Im wrong.

No, that would be a lie.
Vegetarians dont eat meat, fish is meat.

Personally, no, I wouldn't.
I don't eat any meat - and this includes fish.
To be honest, lately I've been turning vegan - with no effort at all... it just came naturally...

Nope, fish are animals. Simple biology.

Sure ... pesco-vegetarianism is quite widespread. Okinawa is a pesco-vegetarian culture and define themselves as such.
