So, jokes aside, people eat all kinds of different things, so legit question here: is there any traditional recipe/dish based on another species' semen? Is there any culture who eats that?

I know in Switzerland there is a traditional dish of bull's testicles (which I know from a way too long advertisement on youtube that showed the recipe in promotion of the region, don't remember the region but that ad has been branded into my brain). And that you can also prepare utter. But I am asking specifically about cum here. Just out of curiosity of course....

DriftinGrifter ,

theres a book full of recepies using semen

Grass ,

I may have seen that book in the possesion of some lgbt friends. I'm pretty sure it is not implied to be sourced from another species thogh.

Natural Harvest

or something like that I think

TheRtRevKaiser ,

Milt is, apparently, a thing which is eaten in a number of cultures. I couldn't find any other non-fish examples, though, which was a little surprising.

chatokun ,

Testicles make more sense because it's easy to acquire, you just butcher the animal. Same with blood. Milk is also produced regularly with a little more work. Semen requires ejaculation AFAIK, which feels both much harder and much weirder to perform.

dont tell the furry instances about this post.

Or do, the art would be fucking hilarious.

its just bull penis cum 😐

KillingTimeItself ,

i like that you specified penis.

Regardless, whenever shit like this happens, there is almost always some funny shit that shows up on e6 in about a week. Same thing happened with the recent bear posting.

Imgonnatrythis ,

I dunno about this. When I buy bully sticks they list the names of all the bulls on them. I think it's weird either way, prefer it if food products weren't quite that personalized.

Got_Bent ,

I, for one, would rather have milk from a bear.

garbagebagel ,

Careful now, the bull gonna come after you for choosing the bear

Further proof that you didn't need to be smart to succeed on twitch. Especially if you're not a gamer. "Just chatting" my ass.

"Smart" was never on the list of criteria. "Attractive" and/or "Entertaining" are much more common.

Ahh, "Root", the most traditional girl's name of them all.

Shou ,

I am root

Ignoring myrtle letty irma fanny julia veronica but yes, there is one named root.

Nurse_Robot ,

What are you trying to say

Daft_ish ,

The majority of the names are traditional girl names....

She's still right, she just made the point in a dumb way

TrickDacy ,

By pointing out that her theory had zero basis in at least one case? That's an interesting way to "be right"

Please explain.

Ephera ,

I'm also hearing this notion for the first time, so there's probably more to it, but I guess at the very least, if you're treating all creatures as friends, you'll also definitely treat women as friends.

iiGxC ,

Dairy depends on exploiting and taking advantage of female reproductive organs. Misogyny also views human woman as only good for birthing kids and taking care of the kids, exploiting their reproductive organs in a different way.

Both disrespect/disregard bodily autonomy.

TheControlled ,

Cool connection! Too bad that's all it is 😭 Would love something with actual evidence, because otherwise this might sound embarrassing and insane 😢😂

iiGxC ,

What do you mean evidence? Where do you think milk comes from? What do you think initiates lactation?

KillingTimeItself ,

what they're saying is that you're pointing out that this is whats happening, and that this is another thing related to this thing via a tangential connection.

You have no idea who owns those cows, or if those cows even exist, or if those are even the names of those cows. Literally all you know is that that's what it says. We have nothing that should lead us to a conclusion of anything other than "huh, they used old human names, that are female, probably because naming non human things, human names would be weird, and probably female, because well, the animals are female, though since it's not explicitly human animals, they don't need explicitly human names, so quite a few of them are just, weird."

This is like seeing 911 happen, and then seeing another building collapse somewhere else due to bad maintenance (or whatever reason, it doesnt matter) and going "must be terrorism"

iiGxC ,

The names part of the connection is why I said the person in the post is making the point in a dumb way. The names are irrelevant.

What we do know is that the body of at least one cow somewhere was used to get the milk that was turned into the yogurt. That objectification and exploitation of their body and reproductive organs has parallels to misogyny, for one thing both disregard bodily autonomy.

KillingTimeItself ,

idk i think i'd be more concerned about the fact that humans are literally willing to round up hundreds of thousands of animals for produce and food, and feeling no remorse for it, rather than the slight parallel between what is literally comparable to the holocaust (except it's cows and beef/milk, instead of jews and hitler) than the very generalized problem that society has towards women specifically.

Like don't get me wrong here, i don't think you're wrong, i just also don't think that this is probably the place and time to be talking about it like it's some sort of moral fixation. When there is literally a better one to use.

TheControlled ,

That objectification and exploitation of their body and reproductive organs has parallels to misogyny, for one thing both disregard bodily autonomy.

You go from fact to this insane bullshit in an instant. That's your pseudo-psycho-sociological take with there is no basis in reality except you physically typing it out.

This Freshman-grade blathering needs actual evidence because it is such a outlandish claim.

crazyminner ,

Everyone with a vagina doesn't have just names like those. Their names could be anything Alex, Felix, Dani, etc, but they choose names that they think people with vaginas should have, like all ones from back when women had very few rights.

KillingTimeItself ,

man wait until you find out what happens to old names as people start using them again.

@Darkraisisi@feddit.nl avatar

Maybe a different angle from other replies here.
Maybe like "Jeff can be a girls name too." Why only call female cows traditional female names?

KillingTimeItself ,

probably because they're all cows and having a consistent naming scheme seems nice to the human psyche?

It'd be weird to have one named betty, and then another named mark. The brain appreciates consistency and patterning.

GeneralVincent ,

I'm not seeing the connection between misogyny and eating animals. Are there any better examples?

Fanny milk, not available in the UK.

ClockworkOtter ,

They gonna do that for steaks as well?

danc4498 , (edited )

If they names a female cow Bill and put it on that container, I would be super concerned.

Daft_ish ,

That guy is stupid and can't read.

NikkiDimes ,

Care to enlighten the class?

Daft_ish , (edited )

The the names are traditional girl names. As opposed conventional girl names.

No where does she even suggest the cows are not cows.

Mature female cattle are called cows and mature male cattle are bulls.

-Wikipedia

The only person that guy is dunking on is himself with his inability to read and his proclivity to, "bull milk "

This is grade A misogynistic man-splaining disguised as a shit, uncalled for, joke.

Agrivar ,

Dafft_ish, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Daft_ish , (edited )

Oh no, you've shamed me with happy gilmore copy pasta rather than refute my argument.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot ,

No, Colonel Sanders, you're wrong. Mama's right.

Daft_ish ,

Now a quote from big daddy. We got an Adam Sackler fan in here.

NikkiDimes ,

This is grade A misogynistic man-splaining disguised as a shit, uncalled for, joke.

Or Roza just said something really stupid about the cows being named shit like Root. Your virtue signaling is extremely misplaced in this case, I'm afraid.

    I'm having a hard time believing that's not a troll, and the reaction you're having here, calling someone a "clown feminist," is exactly what they were trying to provoke

    I'm pretty sure cow is the species common name and bull/heffer are the sex variant terms.

    You know, like how a rooster and a hen are both still chickens?

    Ebber , (edited )

    That would be "cattle". A cow is specifically a mature, female cattle.

    He had to caution the lady about the taste of the bull's milk.

    Mostly_Harmless_Variant ,

    If they feed the bull pineapple it'll taste better.

    HonkTonkWoman ,

    And if they feed the bull asparagus, it’ll smell awful!

    @Zehzin@lemmy.world avatar

    Fun fact about asparagus that I didn't fact check: Only some people have bad smelling pee after eating asparagus and only some people can smell the bad pee at all. There was science done on this.

    HonkTonkWoman ,

    Ooh that’s cool to know. Kinda like Cilantro?

    I wonder if Southern Comfort is a universal pee stinker?
