A person is not "born" a vegetarian, like you're born a girl or a boy or something. Vegetarianism is simply a way of eating, and it is a choice people (or their parents) make for either moral, or ethical, or religious, or health or cultural reasons. Just because you don't
LIKE meat or chicken, or it makes you a little ill, does not in and of itself make you a vegetarian. Perhaps you are simply allergic to certain foods, or to certain chemicals used in the processing of those foods? Perhaps if you switched to organic meats you would not get the same reaction?
If you want to choose to become a vegetarian, then by all means, EDUCATE YOURSELF on the subject and consider it.
Following are a few definitions of the word "vegetarian." (see
www.dictionary.com) As you might notice, even though a lot of people who eat chicken and fish CALL themselves "vegetarians," they ARE NOT in fact, vegetarians:
