What makes a man ? is it being prepared to do the right thing, no matter the cost ?

Sure, that, and a pair of testicles.

You joke, but perhaps... perhaps you're right.

I'm like half the size of an average man so as a woman I sometimes have these moments even more intensified, like a goblin against a troll

Every man is by definition a man and feels like one.

But maybe you could still pretend I am a strong man every once in a while anyway? As a treat?
no... oh... okay...

If that's the role-play you need from your partner and she agrees to it and you reciprocate; then sure. But it isn't society's, or your co-workers', job to do that.

Normalize feeling like a man as somebody who is given space to feel anything beyond anger or shame. A man needs to feel like he can talk about things on his mind at any given time, to anybody he trusts. A man is somebody who can cry when he is hurting, and it be okay; that he won’t be labeled as weak or a coward.
