I Believe That Words Are Powerful

[i]"I want more 'men'
with flowers falling from their skin.
more water in their eyes.
more tremble in their bodies.
more women in their hearts
than
on their hands.
more softness in their height.
more honesty in their voice.
more wonder.
more humility in their feet."[/i]

-Nayyirah Waheed

Basically, it means a man with a higher EQ. This reminds me of a documentary by Netflix titled "The Mask You Live In" which discusses how to raise healthier boys and the next generation of men, redefining what "masculinity" really means. They say that when boys or men are taught to suppress their emotions, it has a higher correlation to defiance and criminality.
