Why are vegans idiots? Their existence, and success at being healthier than non-vegans, proves meat is not required. We are capable of eating meat, but it is terribly unhealthy to eat a lot of it. Similarly, we are capable of eating refined sugar, but similarly, it’s terribly unhealthy to eat a lot of it.

That is why you don't. Almost every meal from cultures around the world has a balance of everything with meat taking up a small percentage of the plate. Eating meat is not unhealthy for men and unless Vegans get everything down to a tee and wrap their entire lives around their meal plans it can be a disaster, for men more so than women. If you have a 9-5 or a job that is more demanding than that being a Vegan and male is more than likely going to have far more negative effects than positive effect not to mention if you are a laborer or are in the line of labor intensive work. It's fine for people in certain life situations with the time enough to devote. I don't think Vegans are inherently idiotic as the other poster but when it comes to believing everyone in the world can be Vegan and still be healthy they are quiet naive, way off of the mark and some who protest this can seem idiotic.

It is not very difficult to be vegan, and a man ,and have labor intensive work.

Also, there is a whole subcontinent (india) full of vegetarians and vegans without long term deficiency effects.

 

EDIT:

Vegan diet consits of the same food that everyone eat: Bread, Pasta, Rice, Potatoes. Then add a lot of beans, onions, and some vegetables. You can have most food from Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Thai, Italian, Lebanese restaurants easily made vegan.
