Red meat does possess a fair amount of nutrients that are usable in our diets. It is not only a source of protein but other vitamins as well. In that same respect, there are a lot of unhealthy factors about red meat you should consider. It is very high in calories and contributes to an unhealthy part of our cholesterol as well as increasing our chances of various forms of cancer. If done in moderation, cow meat can be reasonable addition to your daily diet, but otherwise it's disappearance from your meals will not be detrimental to your health.

In regards to the morality associated with the act of killing another animal and consuming its flesh, that's a personal choice. We have been consuming animals to supplement our diets for over 100,000 years. It is in our biological nature, but it still remains a choice. So to opt not to eat animal products anymore is a completely reasonably decision.

In places where beef - bovine meat - is eaten, the meat comes from both sexes of the cattle.

The term cow refers to the female; the male animal is a bull and the young are calves.

The meat from the adult cattle is called beef; from the calf it is called veal.

Humans have no biological need to consume cow flesh. Confining, mutilating, and killing cows causes them to suffer. If you think it's wrong to cause others to suffer unnecessarily, then you shouldn't eat cow flesh.

Personal choices do not have victims. Just because humans have done something for a long time does not make it right.

The milk you drink comes from a female cow. "Male cows" don't exist. A bull or steer, on the other hand, does exist, and these are the male composites of a cow.

Of course. You do as well, it's called beef, and comes in many forms, generally classified as steaks, roasts, soup meat, etc. All meat we eat is muscle from animals.
