Do you believe that there is "girls food" and "boys food"?

Well, punk?

I prefer croissants or scrambled eggs on toast.

Is it worrying that I prefer all the girl foods here? Maybe I should just lose the cock and get it over with.

Some dozy, slack-jawed schoolie in MacDonalds put some of that green, leafy stuff on my Big Mac once. I could hardly punch him in the face and smash the place up I was vomiting so hard. :(

Is that what they do in McDonalds now? No wonder they are rubbish. They probably only have women in there if they are serving burgers with lettuce

:mad:
 
in a curryplace, boys have vindaloo girls have chicken korma.

I was in a Wetherspoons in Falmouth with my ex, and he ordered a korma and I ordered a hot chicken tikka masala, and the guy who bought them over said "Your korma, madam" and put it in front of me, to which I replied "Er, no, otherway round actually" and he said "But I've never got it wrong before!" :D
 
Send some this way then, and I may reevaluate my opinions.

Anyway, I like brie really, I was just playing up to DC's prejudices, but looks like I failed.
 
In one of my old job I'd go to the shop to get hangover food for everyone in the office and was often instructed to get 'man crisps'. Which means cheese and onion or beef or barbecue.
 
Dainty nibbles can be scoffed with the same gusto by various humans regardless of genital arrangement

Just as chunky big foodz can be demolished by dainty little ladies, who then fart in yor face and laugh.

We all got an oesophagus and a sphincter and all the amusing processes inbetween.
 
meat & beer

Meat, salted. This is the food of ignorant uncultured Man, cooked with Fire. Uncultured man draws his fellows to admire meat as it burns on makeshift grills.

Cultured society laughs as woman takes out marinaded steak, flips it onto the barbie and pases man tongs for the vital task of meat-turning
 
I'm going to fly in the face of (seemingly) everyone because I do think that there does tend to be a difference between men's food/eating habits and those of women.

There has been a lot of scoffing (!) at male/female food stereotypes but I think stereotypes have a basis in reality. After all, cultural stereotypes usually arise from anecdotal consensus and, just because we live in a PC world where we are supposed to believe that everyone is exactly the same as everyone else, I don't think we should dismiss what we come to understand from our own personal experience,

In my experience, men tend to prefer the occasional big meal whereas women tend to pick or 'graze' during the day. Men (unless they are in poncey boy chef mode) tend to be very conservative in their food preserences (meat and two veg?) whereas women tend to experiment with new foods they have found or they have had recommended from other women. Men tend to prefer red meat whereas women tend to prefer fowl and seafood.

There's a big point in the barbecue stereotype because, whenever you have an outdoor fire, it's invariably men who surge forward with all the Ray Mears knowledge. The big point is that, recently, it was found (http://http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1571290/Study-finds-acrylamide-link-to-cancer-in-women.html) that eating cooked/burned food is more dangerous for women than men.

It's easy to laugh at the hunter/gatherer stereotype where men are seen as hunters of red meat and women are seen as gatherers of nuts, roots, berries, seafood etc but this is a model that probably has existed in almost all cultures for hundreds of thousands of years and which may have only been overwritten by our new social norms a matter of a few hundred years ago. Maybe after all that time, there are cultural differences written into our genes.

I just thought I would say that....
