Men who have become white-collar workers and achieved success lose the ability to fix cars, hunt, fish, plumb, or perform carpentry. It's not so much focused on how a specific ability makes you manly, but about how the lack of it makes you wimpy and how being "civilized" makes you lose your manly edge. Should they attempt to do such things — usually in a vain attempt to defy this very trope — they will fail spectacularly. This concept probably dates back to hunter-gatherer days: the way to prove you were an adult was to demonstrate that you can feed yourself and your family, and in those days hunting was the primary way of acquiring food. Just because nowadays people can get by just fine with butcher's shops and supermarkets selling cuts of meat taken from domesticated livestock doesn't mean that the original notion has gone away. The Spear Counterpart of Feminine Women Can Cook. Compare A Real Man Is a Killer. Hunting involves killing other animals but has a different connotation from killing other humans. See also Real Men Eat Meat, where manliness is equated with eating said animals, and Real Men Cook if the hunter can also make a great steak out of his quarry when he's done. Examples |

In Harry and the Hendersons, the father takes the son on a hunting trip as a rite of passage, but the boy is reluctant and doesn't want to kill anything, which upsets the father. By the end, the father has learned an anti-hunting lesson (namely, that hunting is bad because you might shoot Bigfoot). | |

In Beauty and the Beast, it's the Prince's proclivity for hunting that eventually gets him transformed into a Beast. He's obsessed with hunting a golden doe in the forest, but when he finally hits his mark the deer transforms back into his wife, who confesses her true nature as a mountain nymph. The God of the Forest is not happy about his daughter's death and puts the Prince under a Curse. | |

Straw Dogs (1971): One of the ways the rural locals attempt to emasculate David is by inviting him hunting, something the urban intellectual has no experience in. Pressured into accepting to assert his manliness, David gets ditched by the locals, who instead sneak into his home while he's waiting for them in the woods. | |

On That '70s Show Red takes Eric hunting, then berates him for half of the episode when Eric misses a shot at a buck at close range. Eventually Eric reveals that he's a great shot and missed because he didn't want to kill the buck; interestingly, Red says that he can respect that a lot more than Eric just being a lousy shot. | |

Bart from The Simpsons is initially sent to a steel factory on account of Homer fearing he might become gay. It backfired, as the factory was full of Camp Gays, so Homer decides to go hunting with him. In an early episode, Homer and Bart got lost in the woods. Homer set a trap to catch a rabbit. The trap threw it so far away Homer and Bart lost sight of it. Homer (at least initially) seemed to believe the rabbit would come back. |

To show them wrong, Sylvester took his son to a place where he hoped to catch some mice. His failure cannot be solely blamed on the "giant mouse". | |

Subverted in Hannibal. Profiler Will Graham lives alone with a pack of dogs in a rural area, where he fishes, crafts his own lures, and fixes boat motors. However, he lives in isolation mostly because he's so sensitive to other people's emotions that he finds too much human interaction overwhelming, and he's easily dominated by his urbane, culture-loving, Supreme Chef aesthete of a psychiatrist... Hannibal Lecter. Funnily enough, Hannibal is great at hunting too. | |

Gaston from Beauty and the Beast seems to think so and so does everyone in town. His sidekick sings that there's 'no one in town half as manly' while gesturing to a wall full of hunting trophies. And don't forget that Gaston feels 'I use antlers in all of my decorating' is something to brag about. | |

The Occupation Saga: Protagonist Jason hunted with rifles as a kid, which endears him to Yaro (a female Rakiri, the local Cat Folk species): what turns into their first date starts as him tagging along on one of her hunting trips. He wonders if she plans to hunt with only her claws and teeth until she gets a rail rifle out of the trunk of her car. She certainly could (and ends up in a fight with a local predator that picks up their trail), but Rakiri don't feel any shame in hunting with guns: she compares it to the notion of Jason chasing a prey animal to death (the fact that humans evolved as persistence hunters had previously been brought up a couple times in relation to humans' greater endurance than most aliens). | |

Supernatural. Obviously Sam and Dean share a background, and they both "hunt" (demons) but manly Dean who accepts his blue-collar roots can not merely fix but rebuild cars, while Sam who went to college and wanted to be a lawyer (and whose masculinity Dean likes to make fun of) isn't allowed to drive anymore and does not know how to do anything similar. | |

On King of the Hill, Hank, after forgetting to get permits to take his son hunting during the first season where he is old enough, believes he has accidentally denied Bobby a rite of passage he needs to successfully be a real man. So he scrambles to come up with another option, and Bobby reluctantly agrees to go through with it at a special hunting camp. But both of them decide that bagging a captive, farm-raised deer just for the sake of killing one isn't all that sporting and they decide not to go through with it. Then Hank decides that, got dangit, his son is going to get to have a rite of passage, and lets Bobby drive the truck home. The younger Hill is ecstatic and does a good job, up until he accidentally hits and kills a deer. They both feel a little bad, but decide to count it as a twofer on rites of passage. | |

Played for laughs in Code Geass. Lelouch may be a Magnificent Bastard Chessmaster who can single-handedly win a battle thanks to his strategy... but when stuck in the wilderness, he attempts to dig a deadfall in order to catch an animal...and exhausts himself before it's even two feet deep. He's forced him to eat the fruits his half-sister Euphemia found with an embarrassed expression on his face the whole time. This ties in with his being a Non-Action Guy. In contrast, his much more athletic friend-slash-rival Suzaku is shown fishing bare-handed and produces more than enough food for himself and Kallen. | |

In the Book of Genesis, this is the reason that Isaac favors Esau over Jacob. Esau was a great hunter, while Jacob preferred helping their mother Rebecca out in her tent (which is why she favored him over Esau). This causes problems later: Jacob knows that Esau is, well, more brawn than brains, and tricks him into trading his inheritance for a bowl of lentil soup. The deception works, because as Isaac had gone blind in his old age, Jacob and Rebecca worked together to make him think Jacob was Esau: they cover Jacob in goat skins (because Esau was hairy), and pass off the meat from said goat as game that Esau would routinely bring home. When Esau finds out about the deception he is pissed (understandably so), and Jacob has to flee to the other side of the Fertile Crescent to protect himself from a Roaring Rampage of Revenge. They make up later when both of them are wealthy sheikhs with multiple wives and children. Earlier in the same book, after Sarah kicks out her adoptive son Ishmael and his birth mother Hagar (because she favored her biological son, Isaac) note Yes, that is the same Isaac from the previous paragraph, much younger. , the two of them are Crossing the Desert and have run out of water. Ishmael is suffering from dehydration, and Hagar cries because she doesn't want to watch her son die. An angel leads them to a well, and tells them not to fear, that Ishmael will survive and grow up to be a great hunter, "a wild ass of a man." He becomes an important patriarch to Muslims, just as his half-brother Isaac is to Jews and Christians. |

In Pig Hunt, city boys Ben and Wayne are very enthusiastic about going on a hunting trip with country boy and ex-soldier John as it will allow them demonstrate that they are 'real men' who can hunt and kill their own food. Non-Action Guy Quincy, however, makes it very clear that he is just along for the ride, and thinks that the best part about hunting is going home. | |

In Always Coming Home, for the Dayao, a man’s rite of passage involves killing a condor or at least a buzzard. Inverted with the Kesh: hunting is for young boys, not adults. | |

This is repeatedly brought up in The Alphabet of Manliness and The Retrosexual Revolution. | |

Averted in both Horizon games. Both men and women are portrayed as capable hunters and huntresses of machines in various tribes across the world, and discrimination is more along the lines of individual weakness or if you happen to be a Nora outcast. The Tenakth do ratchet this up for almost all their members, with Chief Hekarro having united the three clans around fighting the machines, meaning there are a lot more hunters per capita than say, the Utaru or Oseram. | |

Arthur from Merlin goes hunting all the time. Two episodes revolve entirely around his fondness for the sport. Interestingly, the show does not necessarily approve of his hobby, as many of his hunting expeditions end in disaster, and Merlin, the studious wizard, explicitly states that he does not like the sport. It's a Sensitive Guy and Manly Man contrast. | |
