Masculine

1. Etymology

Masculine in Sharp’s lexicon is a cross-reference cluster: see animus and logos. Samuels redirects masculine to gender—cultural classification of sexes as masculine and feminine, distinct from biological sex.

2. Plain summary

Descent Press does not treat masculine as a free-floating essence. Sharp points readers to the living lemmas where Jung worked the material: animus as contrasexual soul-image in a woman; logos as discriminating principle often (not exclusively) paired in Jung’s typology language with masculine psychology.

Examples (exhaustive house list for this Index lemma — common masculine motifs named across Jung’s essays and standard Jungian lexica; not a claim that Jung’s CW contains only these):
Sharp redirect to animus / logos; Samuels → gender; cultural vs biological sex; contrasexual image in woman; discriminating-principle pairing (provisional); psychology of masculinity/femininity; avoid essence slogans; dual-stamp path to parent lemmas and feminine.

3. Academic elucidation

In analytical psychology masculine is index hub, not separate Sharp essay—content lives in animus / Logos / gender. sample or dual-stamps from those lemmas. Prefer CW 9i / 9ii / 7 as stamped there.
