The only term I could think of is defeminization.

It seems like most people understand what emasculation is and the things that cause it.

What are some examples of situations that can cause the feeling?

Edit: changed effeminization to defeminization.

    Thats an interesting take.

    I was working under a different understanding where emasculation is humiliation due to lack of ‘traditional masculine trait’ and the inverse hence being humiliation due to lack of ‘traditional feminine trait’. I just found it interesting that that is not smth much talked about.

      Men who lack ‘traditional masculine traits’ or behave in ‘un-manly’ ways are referred to with what sort of language?

      What are the humiliating comparisons made to these men?

          Think about why is it demeaning to call a man a ‘sissy’. What is that comparing him to?

          And calling a man a cuck is emasculating because it implies he is weaker than, and controlled by, who?
