The rest aren’t societal norms. Unless you don’t really want a beard.
Just get a beyond burger bro it’s not hard don’t be so dramatic. Or just don’t try and group paying someone to kill a defenceless animal with ‘masculinity’. Masculinity defends the defenceless.
You conflate societal roles with identity, have misread the ethical challenge, and overreact to a criticism of norms you both claim to embody and reject. We can use other words like weak-willed or fragile if you prefer.
Ok, I’m gonna say this one more time in a different way and if you still don’t get it, then I’m done:
I listed characteristics and events from my life that are typically associated with being masculine in this society in order to point out that, though I meet many of the criteria, I do not always feel masculine; that masculinity (and by extension, all labels) is a social construct which we do not need to feel bad for not fitting neatly into. You have missed the point of my original comment because you became fixated on the fact that I actively partake in eating meat, and now you’re attacking my character due to your own misunderstanding (which is beginning to seem intentional).
Your argument is invalid (to this discussion). If you’d like to argue about whether or not it is ethical to consume meat, I suggest you do so elsewhere.
I will say, however, that I have major qualms about the meat industry. This just isn’t the place for that discussion.

Right, because it’s not classically masculine to work construction and do automotive work. Fool.
Masculinity, lol. This entire post is decrying the definition of masculinity. Talk about being cucked by a concept. I guess you would know, huh?
