You would not believe some of the flak you can get from other women if you're caught eating, well, a rare cheeseburger or eggs over easy rather than a collection of cow-browse. (Provided you haven't made the appropriate ritual gestures of contrition and "I'm so weak!") Mind you, I haven't had this experience since college, but it does stick. And men, on the other hand, seem to consider it a point of pride.<BR/><BR/>Then again, this is coming from a lady who likes her eggs runny, her meat rare, and isn't averse to a nice tartare if the meat is quality enough to stand up. Biased? You bet. But I still think I'm right; there's no logical reason why women would be biologically more impelled to greens than meat, and several good reasons why the opposite should be true. (A pregnant or nursing woman needs extra fat and protein- and wild greens tend to be likely to be carrying a load of defensive toxins.)LabRathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05244213491162693858noreply@blogger.com
