16. Feminist arguments on sexual politics Women strongly go by the fact that “You are what you eat.” Men would most likely eat meat because of the different types of diets that go with their daily life style. Meat is "the food of men," because they consume more meat and they need more meat which considering it gives good blood and vitality. when taken in too large quantities for instance, over-eating meat 'poisons the blood,' causes over-excitement, brings out pimples and so on, and may therefore encourage a type of disgust towards women."
17. Feminist arguments on sexual politics By connecting the oppression of women to the oppression of animals, we can then see the connection between the slaughter of animals and violence against women. PETA uses this connection to further their cause at the expense of women. The difference between men and women is like that between animals and plants," as "men correspond to animals, while women correspond to plants because their development is more placid The "Superior" sex requires and consumes more flesh in his diet than does the “Inferior” sex which can live on inferior foods which is, on grains, vegetables, and fruits.
18. Feminist arguments on sexual politics U.S. slaughter of 700,000 animals each HOUR and 11,500 each MINUTE for human consumption. Feminist try to relate that to men being violent towards women. Meat, which is considered to be the outstanding nutritious food, the food of strength and strengthening, granting vitality, blood and health-is the food of men, who eat it twice, while the women suffice with a small portion.
