Why do boys make fun of girls who are veggie?
Vegetables might be good for your health, but they're not good for your image.
Lettuce is lame, onions are unfashionable and swedes are sad. There is no situation that can be made more exciting by a vegetable (unless someone tries to mug you and you batter them to death with a giant marrow, but this has never happened apart from in films).
Meat, on the other hand, is ace and eaten by real men such as John Terry and Lou Carpenter.
I don't know what makes a chicken wing more rock 'n' roll than a stick of celery; vegetables probably just need someone with street cred to start bigging them up. But in reality, 50 Cent would sooner be seen wearing a dress than he would tucking into a plate of asparagus.
Despite all this, it’s actually fine for girls to be veggie. Boys don’t care at all.
The real reason they mock you is because boys are always looking for excuses to mock. It's our preferred method of communication. Insults are often the only way we can think to talk to a girl we like.
So there are loads of reasons boys diss vegetable-eaters and they're all stupid. Just keep eating the rabbit food. You will have the last laugh when you achieve night vision.
Please remember: Kev is not an expert, he is just a boy and sometimes quite a silly boy. The main thing to remember when it comes to lads and relationships is to expect respect as the absolute minimum. Find out more about a Women's Aid campaign of the same name.
