    To budge or not to butch, that is the question!

    butch up
    Definition
    Slang
    verb to become more assertive, tougher or more masculine. The expression, heard since the early 1980s in Britain, is often used as an exhortation, normally to a man who is behaving in a weak or cowardly way. (The antonym is wimp out.).

    I may be wrong here, but "to butch up" is mainly reserved for females. I don't think a man would ever say that. At least not in AE. And even then it seems more of a lesbian term. Of course I can't speak for BE use.
