When people tell a male he must act more like a "real man," what they mean is he should not act like a woman. Society sees women as inferior beings.

The term is often correctly labeled as sexist, but incorrectly labeled as misandry.
A "real man," is typically used towards heterosexual men who do not embody behaviors projected onto females by society, including submissiveness, nagging, complaining, weakness, or fragility.

"Women always say guys should act like, "real men." That's female privilege."
