One of many reasons that fiction thinks "Testosterone" means "Awesome".
"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."

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.
