I think overall it's healthier anyway to call these people jerks. While this is a characteristic of men who grew up in a society that prioritized them it's not exclusive to men, and there are plenty of exceptions. Which makes it kind of a bad turn of phrase right? So this behavior is not a result of an inherent trait, it's just a result of bad parenting and a bad environment which means both that they can change and it's clear that this behavior isn't just a descriptor, but simply unacceptable.

Also as this meme points out "male socialized" is used by people against trans women to signal that they don't actually see them as women which if no one bigoted is using it makes it much easier to call out when it happens.
