Motivating Sustainable Food Choices (2014, background): “…pattern may also be due to the fact that males are more likely to view a meal as incomplete if it lacks meat (Kubberod, Ueland, Tronstad, & Risvik, 2002; Sobal, 2005) and thus may be much less willing than females to accept a meat-free meal option, even if it is the more convenient choice.”
Measuring consumers attitudes towards health and taste and their association with food-related life-styles and preferences (2019, background): “…to be more positively motivated towards food-related health aspects than males (Hearty, McCarthy, Kearney, Gibney, 2007; Gough & Conner, 2006; Sobal, 2005; Roininen et al., 2001), and studies showing that healthy eating motivations become stronger with increasing age (Hearty et al., 2007;…”
Gender Differences in Attitudes to Vegans/Vegetarians and Their Food Preferences, and Their Implications for Promoting Sustainable Dietary Patterns–A Systematic Review (2020, background): “Meat is often considered to be a ‘masculine’ food [13], and men with more masculine jobs tend to consume more meat [14,15].”
Vegetarianism. A blossoming field of study. (2012, positive): “…of virtue and masculinity (for a review, see Vartanian, Herman, & Polivy, 2007) both omnivore and vegetarian participants rated vegetarians as significantly less masculine than omnivores, in concordance with the link between men, meat, and masculinity (e.g. Adams, 1991; Sobal, 2005; Twigg, 1979).”
Eating green. Consumers' willingness to adopt ecological food consumption behaviors. (2011, background): “Meat, especially red meat, is often associated with strength, power, and virility, and meat is considered an archetypical masculine food (Holm & Møhl, 2000; Jensen & Holm, 1999; Sobal, 2005).”
Gender differences in vegetarian identity: How men and women construe meatless dieting (2020, background): “Several scholars have highlighted that meat is deeply associated with masculinity (Adams, 1990; Rogers, 2008; Rozin, Hormes, Faith, & Wansink, 2012; Rothgerber, 2012; Ruby & Heine, 2011; Sobal, 2005; Stibbe, 2004).”
Vegan men and hybrid masculinity (2018, background): “Since the stereotypes of femininity require women to be concerned with health and body image, women are encouraged to eat less in order to maintain a small frame (Adams, 1990; Bordo, 1993; Brumberg, 1997; Sobal, 2005; Veri & Liberti, 2013; Wolf, 1991).”
From mostly vegetarian to fully vegetarian: Meat avoidance and the expression of social identity (2020, background): “Meat consumption is associated with masculinity, and meat abstention with femininity (Browarnik, 2012; Mycek, 2018; Rosenfeld, 2018; Rothgerber, 2012; Ruby & Heine, 2011; Sobal, 2005).”
