Man up is a masculinization of a notion that equates to common adulting. It’s about taking responsibility, which women are obligated to do as much as men in 21st century society.
A related term is to pony up meaning to pay a bill which has a lot of intersection (as many responsibilities are financial, especially those associated with manning up) so pony up could be repurposed.
