You don't need to bring up "manhood" or whatever else, it's not really relevant and undermines your own argument because it gets people focused on something negative / toxic vs. what you're actually trying to convey which is a lot more of a fair comment.

I'm not talking about those things. Lack of character maybe but he can be dishonest and weasely all he wants. I'm talking about drive and commitment to your career.
We're talking about a man, in any profession, being the best possible in that profession. And I'm not even talking about gender or power dynamics. If the woman was a top CEO and the man was a stay at home dad taking care of kids, then he has the be the best he can be in his profession, being a stay at home dad.
Again, that might be a narrow definition.
