Yet it's apparently not ok to say that men are more intelligent than women? It's a topsy turvy world.

This article is so full of disparaging men, that it’s hard to know where to start.

It just assumes that veganism is good and eating meat is bad. And therefore if you are vegan you’re good and if you are a meat eater you are bad.

Where does it discuss the possibility that women are weak, and just jump on the latest social bandwagon without any thought?

Where is the discussion that we evolved to the point we have done because we eat meat? Where is the discussion of the evidence, that eating meat is good for you, and that men are better at accepting this reality (if it’s true)? So many other omissions as well.

Veganism is currently fashionable and women to follow fashion more than men. Also women seem more susceptible to "fad" diets than men. They should do another survey in about a years time because I guarantee most of these "fashion vegans" will have moved on by then.

"... suggesting that meat is essential if you want to be healthy, and invoking the hierarchy of the natural world, to justify the idea that humans can do what they like with other creatures."

That's called the food chain. You learn the food chain in kindergarten. Light get's consumed by plants, plants get consumed by bacteria and creatures, creatures get consumed by bigger/stronger creatures. We're at the top of the food chain, so we wat meat. It's not "Men are so mean, they eat animals, they're evil!" We are omnivores. We shouldn't be shamed for eating food that we are supposed to be eating.

Also, did they try and say that "meat is healthy" doesn't justify it? Without protein, you can't repair tissue. If you exercise a lot but don't eat meat, (or a very large number of beans) not only will the workout do literally nothing to make you stronger, but it will slowly tear apart your muscles, because they don't have the protein to deal with the stress and tension from a workout.

I try to go for the more ethical options like free range, and I have an issue with inhumane slaughter practices like kosher and halal, but I really don't believe that a peaceful life followed by a bolt gun to the consciousness is worse than the constant alertness to danger and eventual slow and/or brutal death to disease, injury and predators that they experience in the wild. They don't protest lions hunting their prey, they don't call for an end to predation, so I think most vegans are obsessed more with what people do than what happens to animals.

The healthy weight for men ranges drastically more than the healthy weight for women, and is also much higher. Men also need more protein than women based on their higher bodyweights.

It is little surprise that more men would opt out of a diet that excludes such an efficient source of calories and protein. Obnoxious veganism is bad enough but throwing feminism in with it just makes it intolerable.

Because they lack a sense of taste?

accidental_me · 2020-02-23T13:01:14+00:00

Men need more protein because their muscles and brains are bigger, actually everything is bigger. Evolution can't make things that get what they need if they don't want what they need. Even many vegan women crave meat when they are pregnant because the have to "build" the baby.

Yeah, but who cares if you can spin a story about the stupid, no-good men. And if you work for the mainstream media you can.

Yeah, i couldn't finish the article. Once i got to the part where men aren't becoming vegan because of “precarious masculinity” ,then i had to stop for my own mental well being. Never once, have i sat down to a steak and thought "Good! This will shore up my masculinity". I've sat down to a steak because it tastes bloody good. End of.

I think it’s because men have more muscle mass and need more protein so they feel that they have to eat meat

CorneredSponge · 2020-02-23T15:22:24+00:00

Don't men need more protein to maintain their muscle density?

WolfeBane84 · 2020-02-23T15:16:26+00:00

Because veganism is 100% feefees.

You literally can not survive in a healthy manner without modern intervention (pills etc).
