The Typical Vegetarian

Vegetarianism (from Latin "vegetus" — strong, full of strength, vigorous, active) — a way of life characterised first of all by a food, excluding a flesh of all live beings (meat, bird, fish). As (quite often) vegetarians refuse use of other animal products, as in a food (milk of mammals, eggs), and also in a life (fur, skin, glycerine).

The argue about utility of a vegetarian way of life is a very long and constant dispute, but the fact remain the fact — the vegetarian are rather respectful.

Among vegetarians many known scientists, politicians, sportsmen, actors and etc. Itself I eat only fish (I do not eat fowl and meat).
