Superstitious but there's also a lot of identity from eating meats. Especially for men. Eating muscle meats like Steak is a big deal, and we as men are somehow less macho and manly if we don't eat these. It might sound ludicrous, but when I became vegetarian it was amazing the comments I got from friends all around not being a man from the decision. A wife of one friend piped up "I dunno, I think it's more manly to stick to something you believe in, than do something just cause it'd be 'Manly'."
