An academic journal has published an article by a Ph.D. candidate at Pennsylvania State University that argues eating meat maintains a society where "hegemonic masculinity" is the norm.
"I contend that in such a context, we cannot separate the ways people 'do vegetarianism' from how they 'do gender,'" Anne DeLessio-Parson wrote. "Doing vegetarianism in interactions drives social change, contributing to the de-linking of meat from gender hegemony and revealing the resisting and reworking of gender in food spaces."
DeLessio-Parson theorizes that being a vegetarian in the South American nation is a political act that contributes to the destabilization of the gender binary, or the view that there are only two sexes, masculine and feminine.
"[V]egetarians defy attempts to hold them accountable to gendered social expectations," she wrote. "Women, for example, assert authority over their diets; men embody rejection of the meat-masculinity nexus by adopting a worldview that also rejects sexism and racism."
Comment: Seems that Buzzfeed has been going full-on pinko commie for awhile now. Maybe this explains their willingness to publish the infamous Trump dossier, despite the fact that it was obvious Fake News. This "news outlet" is clearly unhinged.
