[QUOTE="Seeker2013, post: 192902, member: 19755"] [b]Is Eating Meat Associated with Masculinity and Power?[/b] I am 23 yr old male . Growing up , I ate almost an exclusively lacto-vegetarian diet , not even eggs . I somewhat regret it today because being a vegetarian could put you at risk of certain deficiencies . For instance , vitamin D and vitamin B12 is found almost exclusively in non veg sources ! also omega 3 too is found more abundantly in fish than anything else . But TBH while I do eat meat infrequently (chicken , goat etc ) , I never seem to enjoy the experience . I am not a fan of the taste either . More like 'eat this coz its got some good iron and minerals' . This is in contrast to me enjoying veggies , even eggs or crunchy fish ! I am also just 5'5" and generally weaker . Perhaps this too due to my bad eating habits and vegetarianism . What i do not understand is why meat eating is associated with masculinity / virility ? Is it BECAUSE meat is already considered nasty by all people and thus eating this is a sign of 'yes I can eat this even if its so unpalatable' and thats why its associated with power ? I never really seem to get it ! I am tired of few people trolling me all the time and embarassing me on social functions as to why I don't take meat from the buffet ! Its obvious they see vegetarians as weak ! Also , (not surprisingly ) people tend to use 'gay' word for men whenever they do something people don't want them to do ! like 'why are you vegetarian ? is it because you're gay?' Like srsly , this is so annoying . This is compounded by the fact that people think if a guy doesn't like to consume things which are not 'sweet' , he's gay ! (gay word is thrown around as synonym for 'despicable' , 'stupid' etc and I find it annoying as I am a gay person myself Like when I told my friend the other way I don't drink alcohol coz its bitter , he was like 'so u only like sweet things? you're gay !' And trust me a lot of people think like that ! But , really whats so masculine about chewing into steak ? what do u guys think [COLOR="Red"] Admin note: Given the turn this thread has taken, it is important to point out that views expressed are the opinions of posters, unless specifically cited by the Sikh Rehat Maryada or SGGS.
