Masculinity, machismo which is the same word in Spanish, but I tend to think of machismo as "masculinity, but with a stylish mustache."

Is "enthusiasm for war" a masculine trait? Listening to Ben Shapiro, or the now late Lindsey Graham (and our president) talk about bombing people with glee, I don't find their lust for violence masculine, I struggle to see the threads of humanity in it.

It's peevish, spiteful, petty. None of these men can fight, someone else must do it for them.
