If you look at masculine stereotypes it's basically being dumb such as dying for Vladimir Putin in Ukraine. This is not something that's innate male, it's something societies instill in males to make them act against their self-interest (such as dying in a war for zero benefits to people close to you).
Regardless of your sex/gender you should use your own brain. I very much admire the Russian soldiers who abandoned their tanks in Ukraine knowing that the russian regime no longer could reach them once they were there.
Generally when it comes to gender roles it's fine to go along with it as long as it doesn't cause serious harm but if people try to use a gender role to make you do something really dumb you have to push back against that.
For males detrimental gender roles are often state-enforced, this illustrate that dying in some war might not actually be something that comes naturally to males in the first place, its something males have to be forced/indoctrinated into. Governments have historically acted very brutally against males unwilling to fight in dumb wars (often outright executing them).
Both Trump and Biden got elected as president even though they dodged the draft. This illustrate how society will not actually punish you for being smart when it comes to these things, you can still get elected to the most powerful position in America if not the world.
