It is an artificial politics though. As in we donāt naturally have this association with masculinity, itās propagandized by the industry. If we somehow got to the point of society actually divesting from animal farming, I think weād already have started tackling the masculinity propaganda to some degree. Itāll be a long hard fight though.
100% it is artificial and socially constructed. I donāt think Adamās Sexual Politics of Meat has it all right but it has some interesting ideas about cultural messages about meat and masculinity and got me started thinking about it. (It was written for a Daly class, and Daly is the reason thereās a strain of radical feminism that things womyn are magical spirit beings that are tainted by being in any form of contact with an XY chromosome. Thereās a reason Limbaugh attacked Dworkin and not Daly and Raymond cough)
