20lbs is very little, unless you're holding it with one hand horizontally...
If you're talking about bench pressing, maybe you meant 200 lbs ? That's not a large stretch, I can't do it but know several people who can...
I was just providing evidence that there were also vegans that can lift 20 lbs, unlike the poster's acquaintances. I wasn't trying to brag about what I can bench press. Who cares? It was the stereotypical image that was being portrayed by one or two posters that I felt needed some balance. There are healthy vegans, healthy omnivores, vegans who eat junk food, and omnivores who eat junk food, just like there are all types of anything else.
