My eldest brother just had a child. I went for a visit one of these days and his partner (my SIL for all purposes) asked me if I wanted to hold the baby. I was afraid to hold him because I might drop him but I really liked it when she put him in my arms.
He was sound asleep but I enjoyed playing with his fingers and kissing his head. He's just one week old and I had never held a baby before.
Does this have any effect on my masculinity? Serious question, I don't know how women see these issues.
No need to worry about anything like that, some of the most masculine, manly men I know turn into babbling fools when a baby is close and it gets worse when they have their big arms wrapped around that tiny bundle of human.

Why would it have an effect on you masculinity?
I'll tell you what does have an effect on your masculinity, insecurity. It is important to have a good foundation for your masculinity.
Does this have any effect on my masculinity? Serious question
Yes, while you were holding the baby your body began producing estrogen and lowering testosterone levels. You do not know about this effect? I think for every minute of baby holding your body loses 1% testosterone - too much baby holding has been linked to low testosterone levels. You are probably starting to feel the effects of this now. I only hope you didn't hold the baby for too long and your masculinity loss is still reversible.
If a woman doesn't find babies cute and doesn't want to hold them does it have any effect on her femininity?
Yes it does, she starts growing a penis.
