Well, it's a masculine failure mode of essentially being overly prideful/insecure of maintaining one's sense of masculinity. You don't see a lot of women trying to defend their masculine sense of pride by picking fights

Why limit this only to "masculine" pride? You absolutely see women picking fights to defend their pride.
We just call that behavior "being a Karen" (or "catfights"). Which, being fair, both come with their own misogynistic problems.
