    I don’t get the insinuation here.

    Is it “Real males eat yogurt and don’t care what emotional children think,” or is it “Real men don’t eat what could be considered jizz by emotional children?”

      That’s because it’s not an insinuation. I think if you take off the bad vibes only lens it’s pretty obvious that this is a sarcastic way of describing a type of man who is refined and contemplative, probably not quick to anger, cares about their health. And these are painted as desirable traits since this is a guide on how to attain them.

      I think you could stand to try to make sense of nuanced irony a little better. You would at least be a little less agitated day to day.
