Romance novel cover star Fabio told the next generation of men that they should be themselves and “don’t drink Soy milk” as he explained why the world needs masculine men following the Hamas terrorist attacks in October in Israel that resulted in the deaths of more than 1,400 people.
During an interview with Fox Business’ Neil Cavuto on “Cavuto: Coast To Coast,” the 64-year-old model/actor, born Fabio Lanzoni, expanded on comments he made earlier in the year when he slammed the “woke movement” of making male characters “too soft” in new romance books.
“Today, it’s almost like they don’t like men [to have] testosterone…” Lanzoni told the host. “Of course, in times of war, who are you going to rely to [sic]? Soldiers, they have to have testosterone.”

“It’s just a trend,” the actor added of making male characters in romance stories soft. “They’re going to be in and out. That’s the reality.”
The “Bubble Boy” star then gave his advice to the next generation of men.

“Be yourself and don’t drink soy milk,” Fabio told Cavuto. “Men and women, they’re different. Men have to have testosterone.”
“And especially, in cases of war … who do you think is going to save you?” he added. “The metrosexual guy in the city or somebody who has testosterone, who is in the army? I’m telling you, it’s like the world right now is upside down.”
Cavuto also showed a picture of the Italian-American star years earlier donning a military uniform as a soldier.
The comments were similiar to ones the actor made earlier this year when he told the New York Post that the “woke movement” of “soft masculinity” portrayed in new romance books is “ridiculous.”
“I talk to many people, I talk to many women and the women say, ‘We can’t find real men anymore,’ and they say, ‘We want a real man, not a metrosexual,’ so what they say is happening in the new romance novels is detached from reality,” the actor told the Post. “It’s La-La Land.”
Fabio’s career took off in the 80s and 90s when he was the face of dozens and dozens of romance novels before making his move to the big screen, the Post noted.
