"I’m not on board with this modern trend of telling men that they should act less like men. I dream of a world where the beer is cheap and plentiful, violence can still be an acceptable solution to life’s problems." —Introduction to Manly Guys Doing Manly Things

Tropes about what is "macho", being a "real man", and the various cultural expectations of what is and isn't masculine, and even things that are considered emasculating.

Compare Tomboy.
