Often defined as aggressive, strong, and unfeeling or stoic. Being masculine means in modern times, at least, no shows of emotion, no flamboyance, no hugging or even looking at other men, must be interested in sports and physical/violent activity.
What masculine is is simply what a man does. Assuming responsibility for your actions; being sympathetic, sensitive, and caring; and gentleness are perfectly fine for men. A true man is not a hard-nosed, violent, overgrown child; he's a mature, kind individual.

Until the 1800s, men's dress was about as flamboyant as women's dress, and men were allowed to show emotion and tears. But their clothing styles sobered and they were taught to be strong, stoic. Affection was still allowed... but as the world became aware of gays and other sexual minorities, male/male affection was scorned.

Get the masculine mug.A word Men's Rights Activists call themselves because they feel that Feminists do not value issues of sexism which don't directly benefit men, like child custody issues, prison sentencing, etc.. This is such a ridiculous term because it's used with the heavy assumption that leveraging equality for women does nothing for men. Feminists want equal treatment and that means equal expectations in all affairs. Masculinist is simply a redundant term that neglects the idea that Feminism works for both genders.
I'm a Masculinist because men aren't well represented in Feminist Issues.
I didn't want to seem homo by calling myself a Feminist so I call myself a Masculinist.

The opposite of feminazi. These are sexist men who feels that they are superior to women and thinks that women are evil.(note ignoring the Greek myth about how women were created to induce pain to men as a punishment for Prometheus because of what he'd done.)These men pick out things about how a women's life is easier and so simple.

Get the Masculine Groove mug.Masculinity as properly defined is an aspirational and normative style of being and living as a natural-born man that a critical mass of the members of that population applaud. Masculinity may evolve over time and diverge within cultures, but there are trans-historical and trans-cultural aspects that any reasonable man can realistically point to through comparison using deitic adverbs. ("This is masculinity. That is not masculinity.") It is not a heteronormative phenomenon insofar as non-heterosexual males make the same denotations in whatever argot and the interactions between heredity and environment out of which the phenomenon of masculinity arises are visible in mass popular culture. As examples, James Bond, Sean Connery, Conan the Barbarian, and Arnold Schwarzenegger are masculine. When "masculine" is applied to women, the term denotes mannish features (or severe unattractiveness). That is not masculinity.

Get the Masculinity mug.a very common misconception among the young and underdeveloped male society; it can be defined as someone who is immature thinking that their penis is what matters most in their lives and that a successful man is a man that is surrounded by females and the number of females that can get into bed with them. while in all reality it shows how much that person's brain is underdeveloped because life is about way more than just getting laid or getting women in bed, and usually men with false masculinity can't do anything in their lives and can't be anything so they just try to compensate for their lack of success in life with the number of women they degrade and get into bed, the number of people they can bully, and the number of drinks they can swallow before they black out.
