History Main / TestosteronePoisoning

* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': The Greatjon's masculinity is portrayed as over the top. Most notable is when he's {{Fingore}}'d by Grey Wind, where he immediately pledges support for Robb despite disagreeing with him earlier.

* The {{Trope Namer|s}} is the ''Series/BabylonFive'' episode "A Voice in the Wilderness", in which something is discovered on the supposedly-abandoned planet below the station. After a bunch of aliens show up and give the protagonists a ten-hour give-it-to-us-or-else ultimatum, the captain of the visiting heavy cruiser Hyperion threatens them with a NINE-hour leave-the-system-or-else ultimatum.

* ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. "No one's slick as Gaston; no one's quick as Gaston; no one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's!" Did you say ''[[Radar/BeautyAndTheBeast neck?]]''... Well, he ''does'' use antlers in all of his decorating. And "every last inch of him is covered in hair." Check the eyebrow action when he says that. Ew.

* SelfDemonstrating/{{Lobo}}, the Main Man, of course.

* max0r's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKPYOfZpegc review]] of ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'' plays this for laughs in is that it's the kind of game that's so manly he [[TrulySingleParent created a son through mitosis]] and has enough testosterone to [[EasySexChange transition]] someone all while using pictures of [[LightNovel/FateApocrypha Astolfo]].

* ''Anime/KillLaKill'': [[LargeHam Ira Gamagoori]] is the strongest of the Elite Four and has a heavy case of MachoMasochism (going so far as having CombatSadoMasochism-themed powers) and YourSizeMayVary (sometimes appearing so big that he may as well be a {{Kaiju}}).

* ''Anime/KillLaKill'': [[LargeHam Ira Gamagoori]] is the strongest of the Elite Four and has a heavy case of MachoMasochism (going so far as having CombatSadomasochism-themed powers) and YourSizeMayVary (sometimes appearing so big that he may as well be a {{Kaiju}}).

* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'': This trope has been PASSED DOWN THE ARMSTRONG FAMILY LINE FOR ''GENERATIONS''!]] [[PecFlex Perhaps frighteningly so]], if you're set up on a date with an Armstrong gal since even the cute younger sister can effortlessly lift pianos with one hand.

* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'': This trope has been passed down in the Armstrong line for ''generations''. [[PecFlex Perhaps frighteningly so]], if you're set up on a date with an Armstrong gal since even the cute younger sister can effortlessly lift pianos with one hand.

* ''Manga/BakiTheGrappler''. Pick a male character, ''any'' male character. If you use a dirty trick to slice off his hand, he might just smile, crack a joke, and then punch you in the face ''with the bone in his stump!'' That's fairly typical, and not even going near the territory of a monster like Yujiro. If the idea of permanent crippling injury gives you pause, then you have ''no'' business being in the ring with these fighters.

* WebOriginal/MakeUpAGuy: One guy has meat with every meal just because they think it's "manly."

* For those that regard Creator/FrankMiller's ''ComicBook/TheDarkKnightStrikesAgain'' and ''ComicBook/AllStarBatmanAndRobinTheBoyWonder'' as {{Stealth Parod|y}}ies of his earlier works, they certainly fit here. His earlier work like ''Comicbook/SinCity'' played the [[RatedMForManly excessive manliness straight]]. No stealth about Lance Blastoff's parody. He takes it out and slaps you round the face with it.
* There is an aside in ''Comicbook/JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac'' where two of Jhonen's characters meet two exaggerations of NinetiesAntiHero comic characters, one of whom is an absurdly muscle-bound heap named "Schlong". His power would appear to reside entirely in his powers of teeth-gritting and flexing. In fact, when he is x-rayed, his skeleton appears as a spindly splayed doodle floating inside a mountain of meat. He needs to be supported by training wheels to keep from tipping over.
* In ''Comicbook/VForVendetta'', Creator/AlanMoore decided he needed an in-universe Schwarzenneger-like incarnation of the ideals of the Party: He is Macho!!! He is Aryan!!! He is what every woman wants!!! He is STORM SAXON!!! Needless to say, V enjoys its airings utterly, as [[StupidJetpackHitler fascistic camp]] treats.

* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}:''

* ''VideoGame/{{Borderlands 2}}'':

* The Adventure Core from ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''. Played for (extra) laughs because it's a small round robot.

* The ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' fandom brings us "Mannosuke", a super-muscular and manly form of Rinnosuke Morichika, as demonstrated [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=303234 here]] and [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=198990 here.]]

* Sven the Rogueknight in ''VideoGame/{{Dota 2}}'', he is here to ''pump you up!''. If he lets out a War Cry, you get pumped up to run faster and withstand more attacks. And when he activates God's Strength, he ''gets pumped up'', dealing a crap ton of extra damages in every of his attacks. And if he's carrying an Aghanim's Scepter while doing so, you also get pumped up to whack the enemies harder by just merely standing near Sven.

* Ultra Beast Buzzwole in ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'' is a [[https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/f/fa/794Buzzwole.png/1200px-794Buzzwole.png ''massively'' muscular bug/fighting Pokemon]] whose TopHeavyGuy build only serves to show off just how buff it is. It constantly flexes its arms in its idle stance and shows off its muscular body, even in the middle of battle. Not even other fighting type Pokemon (which have various fighter designs like bodybuilder and sumo wrestler) do this. Furthermore, in ''Videogame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon'' you get to visit its home dimension, a place so manly even the ''trees'' are flexing.

[[folder:Web Comics]]

* WebComic/RockManlyfist master of Space Karate and 80's action Machismo incarnate. Having been in suspended animation since the '80s, he is awoken by the magic words "No Retreat No Surrender" and proceeds to cut a bloody swath through hordes of Ninjas, Neo-Vikings, North Koreans, Shaolin Satanists and anyone else foolish enough to oppose him. All to the music of Loverboy. Oh, and he also needs to have sex every 24 hours or his head will explode. It's one of the downsides of Space Karate.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZAMl0VWAZ8 Intensive Gastony Unity]]. One part [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Gaston]], one part [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic ponies]], three part masculinity.
* While reviewing ''Comicbook/SupermanAtEarthsEnd'', [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] advised viewers to settle all arguments by screaming, "I AM A MAN!!!" and punching the offending person in the gut in imitation of a panel from the comic. This became subject to MemeticMutation.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxtRGEVsSOc ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH FOR ALL THIS FUCKIN' TEA???]]
* The first twenty or so episodes had WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic (now a SissyVillain who'll readily admit going for manicures) trying to embody all the worst traits of stereotypical masculinity. This died at the ''Series/SesameStreet'' [[LoveRedeems review]].
** Inverted by the T-Rex in his review of ''Film/JurassicPark'', who indulges in Estrogen Poisoning instead. Nostalgia Critic translates her roars with such captions as "Creator/ChuckNorris is my butt plug", "tanks are my crunch berries", and "my ovaries are chainsaws".
** Played with in regards to Devil Boner. He's loud, extreme, overcompensatingly macho, wears leather and his hair is like electric shock... but he also wears {{guyliner}}, is a feminist ally and a good boyfriend, and is perfectly okay with trans/non-binary people.
* Despite being the {{Trope Namer|s}} for RatedMForManly, the ''Videogame/CounterStrike'': Extreme Gore Edition mock-commercial is clearly PlayedForLaughs.

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}''

* The village leader from ''Anime/HareGuu'' is '''''manly''''' complete with ''manly'' chest hair...taken [[http://anime-max.com.ar/anime-wallpapers/slides/images/jungle-wa-itsumo-hale-nochi-guu-003.jpg to the extreme]]
* Whitebeard from ''Manga/OnePiece'': In a WorldOfBadass, he is acknowledged as the single most badass man there is. And he's [[CoolOldguy pretty old]], to boot. It says something when a world-wide government that rules over one-hundred nations and has the firepower raze entire islands is utterly terrified of him. Plus, I mean, [[http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz35/XxInabiUchihaxX/Other%20Img/6163_render_Whitebeard_arrives_by_G.png?t=1267568506 just look at him]]! [[spoiler:Sadly, he proved TooCoolToLive, but even then [[DiedStandingUp he didn't fall!]]]]

* ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' tiptoes the line between this and RatedMForManly. At times, stunts like Revy blowing up 6 pirate ships while jumping absurd distances come across as a parody of balls to the walls action films.
** Ironic when you consider that a large chunk of the badass manly action in this series is done by women.

* ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. "No one's slick as Gaston; no one's quick as Gaston; no one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's!" Did you say ''[[GettingCrapPastTheRadar neck?]]''... Well, he ''does'' use antlers in all of his decorating. And "every last inch of him is covered in hair." Check the eyebrow action when he says that. Ew.

* The [[StealthParody intended point]] of Paul Verhoeven's ''Film/StarshipTroopers''. A lot of people [[MisaimedFandom missed the memo]].

* {{Deconstructed}} in ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad''. [[BigBad Immortan Joe]] puts a heavy emphasis on hyper-masculinity in the running of his empire and the cult he's built around himself. This is shown to be harmful to ''everyone'', men and women alike. Women are treated essentially like livestock, valued only for their looks and fertility. Barring that, they are kept either out of the Citadel or used as milk farms. The men strong enough are brainwashed into a psychotic MartyrdomCulture obsessed with cars and [[BloodKnight battle]], willing to kill themselves "[[DyingMomentOfAwesome historically]]" in service to their GloriousLeader in the hopes that they will be resurrected in the WarriorHeaven of Valhalla. In the end, the only ones who benefit from this mindset are Immortan Joe himself and his fellow warlords.

* ''Literature/TheAlphabetOfManliness''. "[[http://www.calendars.com/Satire/Year-of-Manliness-2010-Wall-Calendar/prod122463/?categoryId=cat00052 The Calendar of Manliness]]."

* ''Series/TheManShow'': It's right there on the name. Including such things as multiple scenes of girls bouncing slo-mo on trampolines with skimpy clothes and the set was an ultimate man-cave with exotic dancers.
** Parodied on a fake advertisement for an assisted suicide service called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDIMyISm9SE Die Like A Man]]", that provided such ways to go out "with your boots on" as [[OutWithABang having sex with a hot woman]], jumping from a plane with no parachute, getting in fights with professional heavyweight boxers (and getting pummeled to death by them), being attacked by alligators, being run over by ostriches, being killed by a mob hitman, and the like.

** Peter [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2l45vjpa8E watches]] [=SpikeTV=] on ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy''.
* Gene Hunt from ''Series/{{Life on Mars|2006}}'' and ''Series/AshesToAshes2008''. "She wants me. Poor bitch." Becomes HarsherInHindsight if you've seen the finale: [[spoiler: Gene is really an eternal 19-year-old kid in the body of a man, whose persona -- the larger-than-life Creator/ClintEastwood/Creator/JohnWayne type, the Sheriff in an old western -- he created after being shot in the head. His "life" is a construct because even though he's living chronologically, he won't age. As Keats {{lampshade|Hanging}}s, it explains ''a lot'' about Gene's insecurity and misogyny around women.]]

* ''Series/TheSoup'''s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrSpYo0jVuE introduction]] for the "GAY SHOWS" segment.
* An episode of ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' had Turk acting much more aggressive than usual, such as wrestling for use of the breakroom TV. Turns out, [[spoiler: he was overcompensating over the recent loss of a testicle.]]

* The metal band [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQF_DR_uDU4 Austrian Death Machine]] based on Arnold Schwarzenegger movies. Made ironic in that it's a side project of Tim Lambesis of Music/AsILayDying, a band that is similar musically but very much ''not'' this trope lyrically.

* Music/WeirdAlYankovic's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLnapb-30hA "CNR"]], a tribute to Charles Nelson Reilly (as if he was Website/{{Chuck No|rrisFacts}}rris).[[note]]The joke is, for those who still don't know who Charles Nelson Reilly was, was that Charles Nelson Reilly was a very effete, CampGay [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE7dsVJvJdo comedian who]] [[https://youtu.be/6KcozXnJ9wA?t=58s was most popular]] in TheSeventies.[[/note]]

* Get a load of these lyrics. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bhLK6XPKCs Would you believe that they came from]] Wrestling/ExoticAdrianStreet?

* Wrestling/DramaticDreamTeam mainstay Danshiko Dino is one of the most extreme exoticos. His tactics rob all but the hardest men of their masculinity unless they are also gay or bi. Until Wrestling/JoeyRyan, who proved so manly he overpowered Dino with nothing but his penis when Dino attacked it.
** There's a reason that Joey's the King of '''Dong''' Style, after all. Not only is his finisher a counterattack where he flip-tosses someone to the floor using nothing but his manhood, but he possesses so ''much'' manliness that he came back from the dead; showing up at 2018's ''All In'' to exact revenge on Hangman Page.

* ''VideoGame/{{Borderlands 2}}''

** The Sniper (and his parents) become notable for being the only Australians in the entire [=TF2=] 'verse who ''[[AvertedTrope don't]]'' have this trope, due to the 'verse's resident Unobtainium. It is later revealed that [[spoiler:Sniper is actually a New Zealander rather than an Australian.]]
** Afforementioned substance is Australium, and being near it gives people ''literal'' testosterone poisoning. It lowers their level of Common sense, while at the same time, making them stronger, smarter, hairier, and making them develop a taste for Beer.

** Also, a self-parody entitled [[http://girlyyy.com/go/manly-v2 '''MANLY'''.]]

* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''

** The [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/album/strife cover of the STRIFE! album]]. Just '''''look''''' at it.

* In ''Webcomic/ScaryGoRound'', after [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep The Boy]] has sex for the first time, he [[ItMakesSenseInContext converts a caravan into a boat overnight]], in [[http://scarygoround.com/sgr/ar.php?date=20060825 a very manly fashion]]. But he uses up all his manliness in the process, and subsequently just feels like "poking things listlessly with a stick."
* This ''Webcomic/ThreePanelSoul'' [[http://threepanelsoul.com/2011/11/23/on-market-segments/ strip]] manages to spoof this and Dr. Pepper 10 at the same time.

* WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation

* Despite being the {{Trope Namer|s}} for RatedMForManly, the ''Videogame/CounterStrike'': [[http://youtu.be/mB6fq9Aadwk?t=2m2s Extreme Gore Edition]] mock-commercial is clearly PlayedForLaughs.

** WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead starts out as this[[spoiler:...but later revert to their canon selves much to the dismay of WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}....except with rocket launchers.]]

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' episode "The Mustache", Gumball and Darwin [[spoiler: eat their dad's muscle-growth supplements]], which causes them to go through puberty at school. [[spoiler: Anais also mistook the health food for cereal]].

* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' has the Manotaurs, a group of incredibly macho minotaurs that give Dipper some lessons in manliness.
-->'''Manotaur''': Not ''man'' enough? I have ''three'' Y chromosomes, ''six'' Adam's apples, pecs on my abs, and ''fists'' for nipples!
** Another Gravity Falls example: "Manly Dan" Corduroy, Wendy's lumberjack dad. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLDslTdbFGQ If his name and occupation aren't convincing, just watch how he fishes. ]]

* Self-help guru Iron Will from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' is hilariously macho.

** Also, we can't forget about... '''MAJOR MAN!!!''' [[spoiler:(who is a fraud and a DirtyCoward).]]

* In ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', Joe Swanson sometimes swings into this but other times plays it straight. Incidentally another Creator/PatrickWarburton-voiced character (''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers''' Brock Samson) also gets used both ways.
** Also spoofed in an episode where Peter flips the channel to Spike TV, which proved it's manliness with things men like by including the sounds of gunshots, [[ChainsawGood a chainsaw revving loudly]], speeding cars and [[TheImmodestOrgasm a woman moaning suggestively.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/KorgothOfBarbaria'' is a parody of ''WesternAnimation/ThundarrTheBarbarian'', with all the sanity taken out and replaced with gore and a bit of parody sex.
* The titular character from ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo''; despite his hyper-macho muscles, attitude and voice, he's constantly ridiculed and a huge ButtMonkey, [[{{Deconstruction}} showcasing how someone who matches this trope would be treated in real life]].
* [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark ALABAMA MAN!! HE'S QUICK, HE'S STRONG, HE'S ACTIVE!! HE CAN BOWL, HE CAN DRINK, HE CAN DRINK SOME MORE, ALABAMA MAN!!!]]
* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' hints at a show the main cast is fond of. The show looks like an A-Team pastiche that is this trope, with guns, beheadings, explosions, and more. Its title? ''Ball Fondlers''. The [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/rickandmorty/images/9/93/Ball_fondlers.png/revision/latest?cb=20150903112251 image]] says it all.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'': Lynn Loud Junior is a rare female example of this trope, being an excessively masculine character. It is a frequent recurrence that Lynn's aggressive behaviour and inclination towards the physical, her hyper-competitive drive, strong passion in hard-hitting sports, [[TheLadette gross and unrefined tendencies]] and outgoing, in-your-face attitude are all things that get on the nerves of her siblings and friends. "One of the Boys" is essentially an episode about Lincoln dreaming of having 10 Lynn's for brothers and they're all stereotypical male ruffians. In one episode, Lynn even tells her sisters and brother to 'man-up' when issuing them with a pancake eating challenge, much to their dismay. Granted, beneath it all, she does have a nicer and softer, more caring side, and even the very rarely shown feminine trait, but it takes a lot for her to show any of this.
* Bluto on ''ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}'' was pretty much this from his inception in ''Thimble Theater'', but when Famous Studios took over the cartoons from the Fleischers, Bluto (once he joined the Navy) would be redesigned with a heavily chiseled physique, a more forceful approach to Olive and more brutal conflict with Popeye.

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' had exactly two episodes about sexism in its entire run. One was about {{Straw Feminis|t}}m, and the other was about this trope. Once all the male superheroes of Earth have denied the Girls membership in their club (for the obvious reason why, see Edmund Spenser's theory in ''Literature/TheFaerieQueene''), a ridiculously muscularly-drawn alien shapeshifting dragster appears, who introduces himself as "Breaker of men! Taker of worlds! So step forth and bring thy manhood against mine own, and let us see who has the upper hand upon the measuring stick!" More information can be found [[Radar/ThePowerpuffGirls here]].

--> [[NoIndoorVoice CONTAINS]] ODOR-FIGHTING "[[ILoveNuclearPower ATOMIC ROBOTS]]" THAT "[[FrickinLaserBeams SHOOT LASERS]]" AT YOUR "STENCH MONSTERS" AND REPLACES THEM WITH FRESH, CLEAN, [[RatedMForManly MASCULINE]] "[[OurElvesAreDifferent SCENT ELVES]]."

* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' has the episode "Bro-Pocalypse" where the boys are trying to be the Ultimate Bros so they can stop the Ultimate Brofist from destroying the world with an EarthShatteringKaboom if it's left hanging. Unfortunately, they end up breaking their bones due to their own machoness, so the girls have to take their place and learn what it means to be a bro. They don't understand the phrase "[[IceKreamKoan A bro is no bro with no bro]]" throughout the episode until they realize together THEY are the ultimate bro and bump back the Ultimate Brofist.

* Played with (with a touch of ThisLoserIsYou) in ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible''. To wit: Ron discovers his bar mitzvah is unsigned, meaning he's not A Man. A special ring that turns him into a tower of muscles helps to compensate, though it's still Kim and Shego doing the [[SheFu ass-kicking]].

* ''WesternAnimation/TheRippingFriends'' is made of this trope. Not only are the four superhero protagonists absurdly masculine, but so is their mother!
* Sol Butcher from ''WesternAnimation/SonsOfButcher''. Especially when he goes hunting.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' had exactly two episodes about sexism in its entire run. One was about {{Straw Feminis|t}}m, and the other was about this trope. Once all the male superheroes of Earth have denied the Girls membership in their club (for the obvious reason why, see Edmund Spenser's theory in ''Literature/TheFaerieQueene''), a ridiculously muscularly-drawn alien shapeshifting dragster appears, who introduces himself as "Breaker of men!

** Also, we can't forget about... '''MAJOR MAN!!!''' [[spoiler:(who is a fraud and a DirtyCoward).]]
** [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016 The 2016 reboot]] has the villain Manboy, a burly lumberjack-type figure who is also TheNapoleon.
* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndSteveTheHappiestGayCoupleInAllTheWorld'' delivered a NerdsAreSexy GayAesop by having poor Rick be forced to drive the "Monsterbator", a comically oversized monster truck that runs on pure testosterone instead of gasoline.

* On ''Series/TheRedGreenShow'', Ranger Gord, who is slender and lanky, has a cartoon segment in which he is portrayed as having an astoundingly muscular physique, so much so that when he bends an arm or even a finger, there is a metallic squeaking sound.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Shows up occasionally as part of Rainier Wolfcastle's shtick. Also, Duff Man.
* The ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' episode "Death Punchies".
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Wakfu}}'': In the season 2 Brâkmarian Gobbowl arc, there is a magic potion which can turn nerdy guys ([[GenderBender and females]]) into macho men. It doesn't just gender-bend the females drinking it; it turns them into tall, hunky, hairy, overly-muscular specimen of manliness.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' episode "The Mustache", Gumball and Darwin [[spoiler: eat their dad's muscle-growth supplements]], which causes them to go through puberty at school. [[spoiler: Anais also mistook the health food for cereal]].
* Self-help guru Iron Will from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' is hilariously macho.
** Same can be said for Bulk Biceps (whom the fans originally dubbed "Roid Rage" or - most popularly - [[FluffyTheTerrible Snowflake]]). Originally a gag pony from "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E22HurricaneFluttershy Hurricane Fluttershy]]" with his enormous muscles and [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything minuscule wings]], he got another appearance in Season 3, then a more substantial role in Season 4's "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E10RainbowFalls Rainbow Falls]]". He's always kept his overeager demeanor, though.
