Rated M For Manly is about masculine works as a whole
Deleted line(s) 131 (click to see context) :

However, it also transformed him into a pure sociopath, and his image of "manliness" caused him to be an emotionally and physically abusive father to his sons should either deviate from said image.

Dark Chick has been disambiguated
Changed line(s) 21 (click to see context) from:
** In Season 1, they form a VillainProtagonist team. Lucious, the patriarch and CEO, is the BigBad whose antagonism drives most of the plot. Anika, his fiancée, is DarkMistress and TheDragon as head of A&R. Andre, the CFO, is the EvilGenius and appropriately a NonActionGuy (in this case not a singer, rather than not a fighter). Hakeem is TheBrute and TagAlongKid, the least involved in the business but known as a great rapper, and constantly shown working out. Rhonda is the DarkChick seductress, and head of fashion. Jamal is the outlier as the TokenGoodTeammate who just wants Lucious' acknowledgement. Cookie is the SixthRanger, reasserting her dominance after being in jail for 17 years, and promotes herself to CoDragons sparking a rivalry with Anika as the co-founder and ex-wife.
