Why this diet appeals to majority men and not women
-
I'm sure everyone here can see that the majority on this diet are men, and not women. And it is mostly women who are vegan, vegetarian, or etcetera. Below, I will cover the obvious, but actually explain truly why.
It's simple to say that men go for logic while women go emotional but that falls apart fast. What really decides who sticks with this is feeling on both ends plus one body difference that keeps men in repels women and none of it comes down to clear thinking.
Firstly, we should understand what pulls men in. Meat gets connected to manliness in most people's minds and dropping it can make someone look weak. Going the other way to raw organs and blood, reads as the most hardcore version of that, like a proof of discipline. And most of this room didn't reason their way there, they got fed it, for (obvious) example, short-form video pushes carnivore and ancestral content hardest at young men because that's who engages, so the "raw liver makes you a hunter" feeling is manufactured and amplified before anyone's tasted anything. That same feeling that makes going vegan seem soft ends up rewarding the carnivore side instead so men get drawn to the far end for the same basic reason women get steered away.
Women hit a stronger reaction against raw with actual physical disgust showing up more and also more unease around animal harm which shows up in studies. Looking at liver or blood can trigger an immediate gut no that does not hit most men the same way. So one side feels pride walking in and the other feels disgust at the door.
Lastly, in terms of biology, it's not about choice or drive. A woman's cycle needs steady energy coming in and meat sits heavy so it's easy to fall short without realizing, but once you eat little the hormones that run the cycle start shutting down and the body forces her to stop. A guy eating the same amount doesnt get that kind of signal so he keeps going. The diet ends up keeping men around because they get the status boost at the start and no warning to quit later while women face the disgust early and then the hormone push later if they stay (if they eat poorly ofc). So, I would say this explains the split best. If you have anything to add, or challenge, comment it below!

@angu The biggest problem is that women have choice. Men should have the say that their wives and daughters eat rawprimal and the girls follow those commands.

@Rabbi Agreed, but this doesn't work in modern society, with equality, feminism, and other woke modern BS. Men of today are weak.
@angu also because of how silly billy our world has become women would face a lot of social pressure and repercussions to stop eating raw meat (even though every culture on earth has a raw meat dish) and thus even if they enjoyed it they would have to do it in secret as they are the enforcers of social norms and must be normal to be accepted by the tribe
