Sexual rejection is existential rejection.

Women hold the keys to our masculinity.

Hence the fear and resentment.

"Acting male" generally means taking charge, being confident, being strong, being unafraid.

"Acting female" usually means showing emotion, being indecisive, being afraid, not showing enough physical prowess, insecurity
