I don’t need toxic masculinity (or Jesus, guns, or American flags - don’t have any of those in my life) to know steak and bacon and hamburgers are freaking delicious and I want to eat them a lot. I enjoy lots of other things, too. It’s a rare meal I don’t have some kind of meat, but I love crab and fish and chicken as much as red meat.
I suspect the correlation is more that if you can’t have empathy for your fellow humans, you damn sure can’t for animals. And I’ve never known a vegan who wasn’t driven solely by cruelty to animals.
I don’t have anything against vegans, and if the food was tastier than bacon and Ribeyes despite the lack of butter and cheese, I might choose it. But here we are. Maybe vat-grown meat will turn out. I’m not thrilled about how animals are treated, but I’m gonna omnivore.

You’d be suprised at what you can find out there that are better than you’d think
Like for example, I’ve had many oat milk skeptics turn into oat milk enthusiasts
Or if you like cooking, there’s so many great things out there. Ethiopian cuisine for instance has a bunch of traditionally vegan dishes
Just a handful of examples but there’s so much more out there
