I've been thinking about this lately. If we look at certain sexually dimorphic traits in female humans, especially ones that are considered sexy in girls, they're also what makes meat taste good. For example, the female body has thinner skin, lower collagen density, and even a less rigid collagen bond structure. That's responsible for the soft body quality in attractive girls, and it also makes meat more tender and delicious. Women also have less muscle (therefore less tough meat) than men and a higher normal body fat percent range. Less of that fat is visceral fat which would just be gross excess fat that doesn't help the quality of the meat and more subcutaneous fat and intramuscular fat. In particular, intramuscular fat is the source of marbling, which results in juicier, more tender meat. Girls also have more fat concentrated in the breasts, thighs, and butt, which are both sexual points of interest in the female body and the main body parts that would be eaten for meat. Looking at diets, (stereotypes and reality) girls eat more plants (fruits and veggies), carbs, and sweets and less meat compared to guys, which is the exact diet that makes animals taste better. It just seems that biologically and culturally, feminine means tasty.

I wonder if anyone else explored this question. This is the only thing I found.
https://kirstenkoza.com/scoop-scandal/contemplating-cannibalism-male-female-meat-tastier/
The conclusion is that while female animals taste better than male animals, it's because of the male scent gland which humans don't have, but I find that answer unsatisfactory because of the traits above. And humans do have scent glands, don't they? Like the apocrine sweat gland? Science shows that male body odor is stronger and more unpleasant than female body odor. If you look at practices of cannibalism throughout history, you'll see a pattern of female flesh being more prized than male flesh, so there must be some truth in it being tastier. Does this make sense?

It could also be for any other reason, like imagine some tribe eating virgins, doesn't mean virgin meat is tastier. Maybe Trump's buddy Epstein knows a thing or two about that

>>
>>16970283
That can't be true when girls taste so much better than guys.
>>
I guess my question isn't so much if women do taste better. It's more why it almost seems like girls are designed to be eaten with all these sexually dimorphic female traits which are the same ones that make meat delicious, tender, and juicy. And what's traditionally associated with what makes a girl sexually attractive would mean her flesh being tastier if she were to be eaten.

It's just youthful traits. Old livestock is tough and full of collagenous tissue, as opposed to young livestock with tender meat

>Old livestock is tough and full of collagenous tissue
If I understand correctly, it's actually the other way around. You lose collagen as you age. Collagen's main function is to provide structure to skin, tendons, and tissue, so collagen degradation results in rough, saggy skin. It's not as simple as less collagen = more tender meat.
>It's just youthful traits
That's definitely true and explains it to some extent. Women are more neotenous than men (and female beauty standards are more focused on youthfulness), so that gives them more childlike traits that results in juicy, more tender, delicious meat. But it doesn't explain all of it. For example, when girls hit puberty (so the opposite of retaining childlike traits), they store more fat in their breasts, butt, and thighs, which not only are sexualized on the female body, but they also just happen to be the body parts commonly eaten for meat. Some of these gender differences are even cultural and not biological like diets (unless there's a biological drive for men and women to prefer certain foods). If we look at what girls stereotypically eat (and the stereotype is true), they eat more plants (fruits and veggies), carbs, and sugar and less meat compared to guys, which is exactly how tasty animals eat. That almost feels too on the nose to not be made up. Like if I were to look at these traits in a vacuum, it wouldn't be inconceivable to conclude that girls were designed to be eaten so they're intentionally made to be the tastier sex.

Yup, the infectious prions are most concentrated in the brain, so eating the brain carries the most risk of contracting kuru. However, that mainly just applies to bodies infected with kuru.

Interesting idea. I was just observing a correlation. What do you mean by that? Are you saying there's an evolutionary reason our sense of taste prefers qualities in meat that are like the human female body?

no, tasty is just what food is supposed to taste like, thus the very first tasty food in mammals is essentially associated with femininity because booba

>OP the Science Autist preparing to represent himself in court
>>
>>16972930
Sorry but you completely lost me now. I just don't buy that the reason feminine qualities are similar to tasty meat is that our preferences were shaped by breast feeding. There are evolutionary reasons for why our tastes buds are the way they are that go back far before us and are too intrinsic to be arbitrarily determined like that. In the first place, breast feeding is not the same as eating flesh so it's not the same taste.

>>16973149
Yeah just pigs in general. The wild and domestic ones are basically the same. Meat from mature male pigs have an unpleasant odor/flavor. It's called boar taint. It occurs in other mammals as well. I mentioned it and it's discussed in the link posted in the OP. I considered whether it's also a thing in humans since men have stronger and more unpleasant body odor than women.

Generally true among all mammals. Males tend to be more gamey.

>>16977214
Sure we can analyze the biology to explain why female meat tastes better, but why do our taste buds prefer meat with these "feminine" qualities? And how would you explain the non-biological factors like food preferences. Girls practically eat exactly how animals should eat to have tasty meat: more sugar, carbs, and plants and less meat (carnivores taste bad). Isn't that a bit too uncanny to be a coincidence?
>>
>>16970060
Testosterone ruins the meat flavor. That is why male pigs get castrated and fed [math]s o y [/math].
>>
>>16979699
It's not the testosterone itself that ruins the meat flavor but how it changes the body, right? I wonder if hormones are also responsible for behavior that impacts the taste of meat like diet. I mean, testosterone already gives men the drive to get stronger and build muscle which makes meat tougher and less tasty, doesn't it? Is estrogen what causes girls to prefer to eat less meat and more of the kinds of food that make the meat from their flesh more tender and delicious?

Without knowing anything about biology, I for some reason have it in my mind that humans are predisposed to scents and flavours which produce immunologically strong children. You hate the scent and taste of your mother and sister because breeding with them would produce a retard. This is why kissing evolved: the taste of another's mouth gives you instinctual signs as to whether or not you and the other's immune systems would produce strong offspring.

I have nothing to back this up and I can't remember why I hold this belief. I'm only realizing now that I've long held this assumption without a source, but it makes sense to me. If you hate the smell and taste of a woman, it isn't necessarily because she's stinky and unhygienic. You just have overlapping immune systems.

But as for actually eating the meat, this: >>16977214

You mean the chemical properties of testosterone (not just how it changes the body) affects the flavor of the meat? How does that work?

>>16985040
intriguing, curious to know if that means Male to Female transgender individuals would inhibit that trait? The trait being tender and/or delicious meat, given that they grow breasts and get their fats redistributed in feminine areas like the buttocks and thighs as a result of estrogen.
>>
>>16995595
There should be an impact since it's mainly hormone based, but there are some gender differences that simply can't be entirely removed by HRT, especially after puberty. Male animals that were castrated before puberty taste nearly as good as female animals.

I don't have anything to add to the more analytical aspects of this, but as an ancedote; One of the strongest urges I often have when a girl is on all fours or on her knees from behind is to bite her ass or lick up her back, and more generally in standing positions I'm drawn to kissing a girls neck or giving hickeys while groping her ass or caressing her waist, often in tandem. I'm not against licking/biting tits either, but I find the positioning awkward. However, I'm not into cunnilingus and in terms of general attraction what draws me the most to a woman is her bone structure, especially the back, shoulders and hips (and obviously on technicality her face, but it's not really the same category). Presumably it's due to sexual dimorphism, but anyways, why these two things are mentioned is just to say that in spite of my tastes not seeming to align generally with more meaty women and I'm not generally into oral, I still have strong urges when it comes to bting/kissing actions. Kind of aligning with OPs premise.
>>
>>16995546
He's wrong, androstenone is part of one bad male flavour profile (i.e. "boar taint"), but the bulk is as you say the physiological changes themselves.
>>
>>16970249
in many cannibalistic tribes, fat was at a premium, such as with pacific island groups whose main fat source was seafood which is naturally lean, or things like coconuts. so things like the breasts and the buttocks became prized as food since they contained more fat. women in general would have been less lean and stringy due to not being primary hunters or warriors, and if you're trying to get as much fat in your diet as possible then you'd want that.
>>
>>16999839
>the breasts and the buttocks became prized as food since they contained more fat. women in general would have been less lean and stringy due to not being primary hunters or warriors
It's not just a lifestyle difference. It's also intrinsic to the biology of women's bodies to have more fat proportionally and store more of it in their breasts and butt and to have a higher percentage of intramuscular fat (i.e. the fat you'd actually eat in meat).

By eating you mean cannibalizing women and not something like what >>16997959 described? It's probably a domination and humiliation thing with some possessiveness along the lines of "Now I've made her part of me and she'll be with me forever." I remember Patrick Bateman in the novel version of American Psycho giving some sort of explanation about his mindset when cooking and eating girls.

Domesticated animals tend to look cuter than their wild variants, and we also associate those with food. Although I'd guess this is more related to association with docility than flavor.
>>
>>16970060
>Meat with more fat is tastier
If you think pork is best meat then maybe, but I personally hate the taste of pork outside of grilled bacon and think chicken and rabbit, both much leaner meats taste better. Also regarding taste you should focus only on the meat texture rather then the taste itself because meat tastes almost like nothing unless you season it.
>>
>>17003057
I think it has to do more with ancient farmers breeding cuter members, or just side effect of removing the dangerous bits of animals like tusks.
>>
Yeah Ive explored this question before, I tasted good
>>
>>17003162
>If you think pork is best meat
Wagyu beef actually. If I'm not allowed to constrain it with specific breeds and grades of meat, then maybe duck.
>chicken and rabbit, both much leaner meats taste better
You mean chicken breast specifically? Certain cuts of chicken can be fatty.
>Also regarding taste you should focus only on the meat texture
I did touch on meat texture when I discussed collagen differences between the male and female body which determines the qualities of connective tissues. Even if you prefer lean meat over fatty meat, you want the texture of the meat to be tender and juicy instead of tough and dry, don't you?
>>
>>16991746
>Although this begets the question, why is Lamb so fucking good despite its gameyness?
Lamb is pretty tender and mild, especially compared to goat. Lamb meat can be fatty after all. Have you looked at the numbers? I went on about female body fat percent but that doesn't tell the whole story (pigs are actually lean in that regard with a relatively low body fat percent). What's more important are the carcass weight fat percent and what percent of the calories come from fat (vs protein) for individual cuts of meat, but it's difficult to find those values for humans, obviously. So it may be hard to quantify how much, but fat distribution makes the taste difference even greater with girls having all that intramuscular fat and fat concentrated in the breasts, thighs, and buttocks, which correspond to popular cuts of meat. You can probably turn a girl's lovely little rump into a succulent steak.
