Nurturing is a female instinct.

If you are denying there are specific male and female hormones than you really aren't fit to answer a scientific question like this are you?

Yes, I would both agree and disagree with you.

I disagree that nurturing is only a "female instinct". Men can be nurturing as well.

I agree that male humans who are rabid veggie heads likely have unusually high levels of feminine hormones. This is more likely to happen to vegan males I think, among whom you don't find many alpha-males.

I think many are "emo" like in their behaviors and passive except when it comes to defending their vegan-ness, then they exhibit PMS-like behaviors. Many of them are so obsessed with vegan stuff they fail to deal with deep seated issues of latent homosexuality.

It doesn't mean they are bad. It's their true orientation and they should be freed from their prison of disassociative behaviors and denial.

It is sad to see so many vegan males and some vegetarian males remaining closeted instead of being the free and gay men they were created to be.

So you're applying stereotypes now huh? Nurturing is something anyone can do regardless of gender just like abuse. Anyone can do anything and trying to define gender roles only sets people back hundreds of years. To answer your question no, vegetarians males do not have high levels of feminine hormones and no nurturing is not just a female instinct. If that was the case no respectable woman would want to date a single man on Earth.

Just the opposite.

And it's nothing to do with nurturing (which in humans, dogs, and many other animals, is a male function as well as a female).

Dairy cattle are fed hormones to increase their milk production. When they are slaughtered, they become the "lean ground beef" that is so popular nowadays. So if a human male eats a lot of dairy and ground beef, he'll be consuming all of those residual female hormones.

Therefore, it's more likely that the meat-eaters that have higher levels of female hormones, unless they stick to organically-raised beef sources, or steaks (which mostly come from the steers, not the cows).

Are male humans that are for eating meat thoughtless cretins?

"Nurturing is a female instinct."
That'll be great to see you as a father.

Men that are against eating meat are just more considerate people, same as the women.

I don't think they have higher female hormones or are more highly evolved. A diet choice may or may not have to do with nurturing instincts or animal welfare. Even if they keep their granola in a purse.

Considering all the hormones given to animals, I imagine it would be omnivores--especially guys who use a lot of dairy--who have unusually high levels of feminine hormones.

I doubt it. I mean the whole meat and potatos image is suppossed to be very "manly". I agree with the first person who commented that nuturing is a human trait not a female trait.

A high-soy diet can slightly elevate estrogen levels.

I would rather have slightly elevated estrogen levels than contribute to the unnecessary suffering of animals. It's as simple as that. Besides, I have plenty of testosterone to spare. :)
