In order for a man to have self respect as a man, what are the minimal masculine qualities he should have?

Some ideas:

Income over a Threshold
Income vs. Median Income
Accomplished at least one act of Violence--organized play
Accomplished at least one act of Violence--street
Appearance of Willingness to do Violence
# of pushups
# of pull ups
Body Weight to Bench Press ORM
Bench Press ORM vs. Median or Untrained
Military Service
Signing up for Selective Service
Paying Child Support as a Father
Raising Well Adjusted Kids in Father's Roll
Getting Someone Pregnant
Using your natural dick for penetration in sex with a willing partner
Reputation for Truth Telling

Follow up question: is there a certain failure rate, number of failures, or a single devastating failure at things on this list where you would say a biological male is failing at masculinity enough to where you'd be comfortable calling them "boy?"
 
Trying to force people to fill roles that don't fit who they are is how society got into this culture war shit to start with. People should focus on who they are personally as an individual and not try to fit whatever bullshit roles others think they should. If a man likes flower patterns on dresses, wear it I don't give a damn. If a woman wants to enter the trades, good on her. Trying to force people to be anything but who they are personally leads the extreme push back we are seeing.
 
Lol I spit at all the income related options.

It is written, the love of money is the root of all evil.

Edit: and lmao at what's not on the list, like being able to have a relationship with a woman without taking her for granted.

Setting the bar pretty low.

It isn't a matter of "biological male". There's a baseline expected to be a functioning person and not a burden.

No, there's no "certainly failure rate", nobody actually cares about "failure rate", it's intentionally self sabotage that people get fed up with. Most religions, certainly Christianity, are founded on the idea that people are naturally fucks ups. People cheer the person who lost weight, got sober, or changed themselves in some way far more than the person who never did any of those things, because everyone can relate to failure, and like the encouragement to see someone else correct theirs. It's the people who fuck up, don't accept it, blame everyone else, and want everyone else to accommodate their shit decisions that are enraging. Nothing to do with "biological man", other than the fact that guys will excuse poor behavior from women because they want to fuck them.

Didn’t you make a thread asking how to be more alpha recently? Seems you’re way too concerned about optics. Don’t rely on strangers to guide the way you live your life.

I agree that masculinity is something you define for yourself.

Has touched at least one person with the jab.
Has filled at least one room full of uppercuts.
Has banged at least one sherdoggers mom in retaliation to an offensive post.
 
Does your wife and/or kids think you’re a good man? That’s all that matters. Who gives a shit what some internet forum dweebs think?

I agree with you but I'm sure Hitler's partner thought he was a good person too.
