Chest-beating machoism is yet another expression of a deranged anima-image expressing as vanity (consider for example the rigid codes of presentation in biker gangs, a very anima-dominated group) and in itself is every bit as repulsive as the most preening effeminateness of the fairest of fairies - overcompensation for being dominated by the Unrestricted Feminine. Actual maleness would be found more in, say, the understated, controlled behavior of test pilots.

Note that an ideal balance involves both feminine and masculine expression - one needs the former for "structure" and the latter for "direction". When one or the other is projected, the remaining side expresses negatively. Our entire society is so in the grip of a negative projected anima-image that it is impossible for most people to see clear of it.

You show that you do not understand what I am saying with the above comment.
