That’s such a toxic thing to say to a young boy . “Be a man” , or “man up” are also toxic phrases said to boys.

@AthrillatheHunt I wanted to say something, but it was a coach at a football game saying it to a young player. 😕

@AthrillatheHunt I wonder if these are prized phrases in the military as well for drill sergeants
