Emasculated-schmemaschculated... Being the man doesn't boil down to simply being the protector of the family/the brute of the pack, although it helps, yes. If you feel uncomfortablle about her beating you at being the muscle of the duo, you either should look for another mamono to hit on, or, ya know, put up with it. View her overbearing protectiveness as a bad habit, because if you love the girl, you put up with her little quirks or even start to appreciate them, like eating pasta/potatoes/omelette with bread (imho, yuck!), making even more mess than you (a feat in itself, really) or using your cell-phone as an impromptu sex-toy. They're just a part of what makes your beloved one special.

Still, if you feel like being repressed in your masculine rights and responsibilities, adapt and overcome, damn it! Learn to use guile and trickery to defend your kin, for example, since you normally can't get stronger than the Hellhound. But nobody said you can't be more cunning. Let her be the muscle, become the brain. Being able to outsmart your foes is cool in it's own way...even if you make them try outsmarting a bullet. Besides, who said you can't take part in doing the "man's work", even if all you get to do is kick the already downed morons n the ass?

Being the man is about always being there for your loved ones and doing all you can for their wellfare. It's about being able and willing to bite the bullet for their sake, die for them, live for them no matter how hard it is, dedicating your entire existance to them.

Mamono are entirely devoted to their loved ones, and if one can match their monstergirl(or human girl) at that, then one is the man, at least in my book.

And even though it would feel a bit odd to have your girl do all the dirty work (mostly) herself, I'd be more than glad to have such loyal beloved one.
