I think it means a male acting like society's standard for what a male is suppose to be. Say a male is kind of the leader of the household, makes the rules, makes decisions, goes to work and makes the money. Many fathers aren't doing that because they are most capable for doing this because they have good leadership skills and a great job, but simply because they are trying to live up to society's expectations of what a man is suppose to be. The same goes for women.
