that's called pescetarianism

Vegetarians who eat meat are not vegetarians, they're pescatarian.

True, but It's still hypocritical though, at least for vegetarians who act holier than thou. That's why I went vegan to reduce the abuse on my end as much as possible.

They're called picky.

This! Every single person I have ever met who says they are a vegetarian still eat seafood! Like NO you are not.

I see what you mean, but some people may argue that keeping a cow alive to artificially inseminate it so that produces milk time and time again and then killing it is more inhumane than just killing it.

Also, a vegetarian that eats fish is not a vegetarian. They are a pescatarian. But the distinctions matter less than the choice that person is making to eat less meat and lessen their carbon footprint, which is always a good thing!

Well what is your issue then? So you're telling me you're vegetarian because eating flesh repulses you?
Then thats fine, but if you read, i clarified after that:
''If you are a vegetarian because you care for animals, then you should be vegan.''

Or, if in your case you are doing it for animal right you are very wrong, because the dairy and egg industry is just as bad, if not worse than the livestock industry.

That logic doesn't work cause people who only eat fish are pescetarians, not vegetarians.

That's like Saying someone who won't wear fur for animal abuse reasons is a hypocrite because they eat meat. Or like saying someone who steals is a hypocrite for being against murderers because they're both doing something illegal
Yes dairy, meat and fur all are bad towards animals, but each have a different level of severity and abuse towards the animals. It's not hypocritical because it's not exactly the same thing
But I do agree about the holier than thou part

I don't know any vegetarians that are holier than thou.

In my experiences, it's always been the meat eaters that have been holier than thou when I tell them I'm vegetarian/vegan.

I've never met any who aren't Obnoxious posts on Facebook like 'another cruelty-free Christmas'... I respect anyone's decision to eat what they want but my vegan friends really love to shove it down people's throats

They're not vegetarians then, tf.
