So many things has been said it, described and told to women to heed, take note of. An undefined, complex, and obscure thing that everybody refers to and pass comment about.

What is it exactly?

Is it (something) in a man? And how does it affect his behavior, in every area of his life? Or It's just a general thing, common to males and females, but the male's has been misrepresented? Changed into what it is not?

Is it psychological, an entirely different 'make' of ego compared to a female's, or it is exclusive to men alone?

If there's something like that, could it be because of culture (societal expectations and gender roles), resulting in a particular mentality: one of taking up responsibilities, desiring to lead, being compelled to sacrifice, etc, for a woman?

In my opinion, "the male ego" determines the degree of power a man perceives and believes himself to possess. If he has a strong ego--he sees himself as strong and powerful. Conversely, if he has a weak ego, he sees himself as weak and powerless.

I have learned that there are Five Basic Needs all males must have continuously "reinforced" in order to feel powerful:

1) the need to be recognized as a special person.
2) the need to "travel light" without feeling a loss of personal freedom.
3) the need for loyalty from others.
4) the need to be close emotionally with satisfying sexual unions.
5) the need to work successfully-- since the male's personal identity is directly tied to the occupation he chooses for himself.

I learned about these basic needs through long years of reading, observation, education, experience, trial and error. And I've noticed many examples of widely spread social problems resulting from weak male egos.

I was enlightened by a very astute and honest male friend who told me during an internet chat one evening that all men measure themselves through the eyes, smiles, and words of the women they know and/or love. He said, "We are what you believe us to be. Men are made by women."

And, interestingly, after learning these simple truths about the male ego's basic needs, it occurred to me that I had these same needs, too. I discovered that "the ego" is gender neutral and directly attributed to one's self-image as a strong or weak person. Males and females are different in many ways biologically--but the same in mind and soul. That old cliché, "What's good for the gander is good for the goose" is very true, in my 66 years of human experience.

So it all comes down to how they've been raised and taught?

jesuuuuu, we men have been betrayed ,

Pataricatering:
The “ male ego “ derives simply from d fact that men can beat women - basically might is right - every other power men have over women derives from the basic fact that they are physically stronger - so the rules have been written to soothe and empower the male ego while women are forced to subdue and suppress their own ego .

meobizy:
The male ego is pride, end of story. There is nothing magical about it. Women are told to stay cautious and protect their man’s ego because in a serious relationship a man is actually the chooser not the woman. As such do not get on his bad side because he can easily reject you. Every action you take registers in his mind as a reward vs cost balance. If the costs of keeping you outweigh the rewards he’ll cut you off without a second thought.

From experience even the most rude of females enters into a relationship being humble. They instinctively know keeping a man happy/content keeps her around longer. A female uninterested in a man or inexperienced in relationships crushes a man’s ego without a care. However on meeting a man she desires adjusts her character to suit him.
