Society seems to believe that there is a direct link between being a masculine man and being carnivore. People also seem to believe that being vegan or vegetarian is for women. I disagree, and have talked to some "real" men who will debunk the myth that real men eat meat.
Special thanks to @teamsteem, @fruitdaddy, @raj808 and @eugenekul for participating in this video. You guys rock! I have never met you guys in real life, but I love how Steem enables such a collaboration between people from all over the world. I hope to share a vegan meal sometime with you in real life!

My video is at DLive
Vegans can get their d**** harder than carnivores at all stages of life, lets just be honest.
@teamsteem LOL dem carnis need some watermelon. :--)
You are totally right. And this statement of @evecab that "People also seem to believe that being vegan or vegetarian is for women". Many people say that but I don't believe it. I wish you well done for this post. It's one of it kind I love reading.
LOL
Source or it never happened.
ahahahaha
Majority of males have no issue being rock hard on a variety of diets. Primal urges have made us into what we are today. Meat has played a big role in helping Man build the modern world!
Meat is having a bigger role in destroying the natural world than it is in building a "modern" one
Meat is just meat. What humans do that is another thing. The planet has been here for thousands of years.
FACT
This is a great topic! I love vegan food, and I feel like there's a vegan movement happening, and the more we talk about it, the more people will accept it and understand it, and so change will happen. It's a real issue that most men think they can't live on vegetables and fruit. It's only because they have not tried any good recipes. Veggie meals are so easy and delicious for both men and women, you just have to try. :)
totally agree with you =) I'm glad that you liked it!
Actually its the opposite. The vegan movement is dying - Carnivore is growing. Vegan is unhealthy and leads to severe undernourishment & mental disease. It's also worse for the environment than eating meat. Humans are carnivores - we cannot get nutrients from plants.
Haha, and what evidence do you have to support your statements? Can you prove your statement about 'undernourishment', 'mental disease', and the 'worse for the environment' part, and regarding the nutrients? I bet you won't be able to respond with proper evidence and arguments ;)
did the people in this video look undernourished to you?
love this♡real men are vegan!! Vegan is sexy ;)
ooh yes!!!!
Love it @evecab. Great editing, great message, spreading awareness and breaking down erroneous perceptions. I personally find it laughable that anyone could believe that a food choice could define someone as a real man or otherwise. Great post, thanks for asking me to be involved :-)
Thanks @raj808 I'm very happy that you said yes when I asked =). I love your responses!!!
we do eat meat and vegi but meat is better :D
Meat is amazing it makes men strong and capable of dealing with the big things in life!
and it taste alot better
Roman gladiators were mostly vegan since meat was very expensive (you know, refrigeration and stuff) but beans, bread and vegetables cheaper, and since most of these guys were some of the most masculine guys out there on history... Perhaps real men eat what they must.
interesting fact, I had no idea!
Great idea Eve, love this video :) I recently read an article about two very successful vegan bodybuilders (I think they were broters) who have been inspiring people and busting the meat myth. They have a strong ally in you :)
Thank you so much, @phortun! Yeah there are quite a few, also this Swiss guy called Mischa (he has a YouTube channel) . He's a vegan body builder too and he's in that new documentary that comes out soon, called "Game Changers". You should watch it (you can already view the trailer)
It’s so true . Society links certain images and characteristics with everything . We think of a dainty petite woman being vegan and a bulky muscular man with eating meat. I couldn’t get your video to load on my phone , but I’ll be sure to check it out on my laptop later .
oh I hope you were able to watch it! Thanks for stopping by =)
Veganism is gay, the happy kind of gay.
Im a omnivore and try my best to eat healty local foods. But if i had a choice I choose vegans. Here's My favourate dish...Its not filling so i could eat until my mouth hurts. It is tender a little meaty but not too much, fuzzy like a nectorine, slight aroma kinda like tilapia and has a gentle bitter yet sweet taste......Does not go well with a plate of beans😉
REAL men are smart enough to know that animal based protein is going to shorten their lives as a best case. Worst case is the low quality free radical toxin and inhumane industrial farming killing the planet. Real men care about that as well.
Wow, are you also vegan unce Zeke? Or "just" vegetarian?
I am a vegetarian by proxy. I still do eat meat with guilt as my little girl decided it is not fair that animals have to die to be our food. The shit meat we consume is not healthy though so I am slowly transforming the family to vegetarian.
Cheese is a guilty pleasure though and I drink fully vegan beer at least?
exactly ;)
I haven't eaten meat in 6 years, never felt like less of a man. This is always an interesting subject because people feel like their way of life is threatened when you bring it up. Just reading the comments on this post proves my point.
Every time I tell people I am vegan I always hear similar things like, "I could never do that" or "I love meat way too much" or "why?" Everyone seems to feel like my decision has some kind of bearing on their life. Would they would they react the same way if I said I ate cake for every meal??
Anyway, thanks for the video and sticking up for us male vegans out there 😊
you're very welcome, Larry! Come visit us in the vegan discord some time =)
Be happy to, that would be awesome, can you send me the link?
of course, here it is =(

My masculinity is much more powerful since quitting the meat cult :)
You surely heard this almost every day in your BJJ class! lol. A part of the sports world is the meat "full protein" diet.
LOL actually not so much, several of us are vegan or vegetarian at the gym =) Thank fully!!
You get the magazine for the articles, ehh? Where have I heard that before? LOL
ahahahah yeah it's entertaining....and the pictures aren't too bad either lol
pretty awesome @evecab, I tried it last year to become not eating meat. You know it is so hard for me. My husband is meat eater. My friends and the people arround me. And imagine i have to cook for the family too. it is so hard..
If you are the one cooking, then you have the power =) Just stop cooking it and you'll see it's not that hard, and you'll save money. We have a vegan discord group if you need advice! Check here:

thanks @crystalpacheco, I always appreciate your support =)
Real men care about animals and other beings on this planet. They don't choose to participate in torturing of the innocent. Real men are compassionate and full of empathy. And you can't be like that if you're a meat-eater. Bravo!
The video is awesome, thank you for having me
veganism causes cancer
