    Because people who have never actually met a vegan before assume they’re all unwashed hippie women. They’re basically incapable of imagining a scenario where a man wouldn’t want a steak dinner lol

      Most vegan people actually want steak, but they consider that wish to be unreasonable and decide to actively go against it

    Demographics. It may not be the case anymore but in the early days of the internet it was a majority American males. That trope has stuck around.

    And statistically, vegans are roughly twice as likely to be women.

    Because even now 2/3rds of vegans are women?

    And the number used to be MUCH HIGHER.

    So it’s natural assumption to make.

    Strange, I assume everyone on the internet is a male especially the vegans.

    I’ve never met any woman that was even close to being as much of a cunt as internet vegans.

    Interesting. The couple of vegans I have known in real life have been sickly-looking young men, so that’s what I envision.
