It might not be the most subtle take at the topic, but "Men are Pigs" from a well known German punk band has its moments…

Genre: Poprock

Unfortunately, German pop is not shying away from age old stereotypes. But the worst: they still work. Which does make me want to cry, which appartently (if you believe the song) men never do. Good that men never cry.

Genre: Pop

You think that a song from 1981 has nothing to offer you when it comes to masculinity in 2021? Well it might not be via landline anymore, but men surely still lie on the phone and prefer to cry in privat. So check out this German everygreen: Männer by Herbert Grönemeyer.

Genre: Synthpop, New wave, Rock
