masculinity
It is a great mistake to confuse physical strength, dominance, violence, vulgarity, or brutality with masculinity. Masculinity is emotional stability, undaunted integrity, quiet courage, humility, generosity, and capacity for enduring love, or it is nothing.
Dee Hock • Autobiography of a Restless Mind: Reflections on the Human Condition Volume 1

Perhaps the best definition of “masculinity” I’ve ever read.
