| - | '''Masculinity''' refers to qualities and behaviors judged by a particular culture to be ideally associated with or especially appropriate to [[men]] and [[boys]]. Distinct from [[male]]ness, which is a biological and physiological classification concerned with the reproductive system, masculinity principally refers to socially acquired traits and secondary sex characteristics. [[Cicero]] wrote that "a man's chief quality is courage." ''[[Virility|Virile]]'' (from Latin ''vir'', man) is a near-[[synonym]] for masculine. The [[Complementarity|complement]] of masculinity is ''[[femininity]]''. | ||
