The answer is actually VERY simple : I do not live what women live. I do not live the sexism, the rape threats, I do not experience the domination of patriarchy like they do, I'm not afraid of what a man could do to me alone, I'm not constantly shut down because of my gender and I'm not constantly recentered to my body. I'm not sexualized, I'm not losing right because of my gender etc.
I just said the opposite. I have feminine traits and I believe that if you gave me 100+ years i would bridge the gap between gender and probably become non binary (in fact it could very well happen soon). This is my definition of a man, it doesn't have to be the only one, there are thousands of ways to be a man or a woman or both or neither. Like I said, it's a social construct, it's not graved in stone.
I'm close because I feel like gender constrains are applying less that they did 20 years ago. I'm still a man, I'm just closer to the state of changing that I was before. I'm not even in the middle of the middle of the middle of the gender spectrum yet. Gender, as I explained, is not binary, it's a spectrum that needs to be experienced as society impacts us. It's hard to give you a straight answer (pun intended)

- A victim of sexism and rape threats
- dominated by the patriatchy
- Powerless against a man
- Shut down because of your gender identity (which mean all women share the same gender or same spectrum of genders)
- Centered around my body
- Sexualized
Which means that a man that was used as a sex slave by other men is a woman? Interesting.
You still haven't given a definition of a man though, why?
Not asking about gender, I am asking about definition of the word MAN, which you claimed to be, so since you can claim to be a man, describe what it is.
Also, you use the word feminine, which means by definition:
feminine
/fĕm′ə-nĭn/
adjective
- Of or relating to women or girls.
- Characterized by or possessing qualities traditionally attributed to women, such as demureness
