Space Marines aren't technically men, as imo they have transcended the human norm and become a race unto themselves.
Saying anything Space Marine is manly is like saying Superman is manly.
I mean, sure, I guess ... in an unrealistic, distorted, and almost irrelevant fashion.

Superman isn't Manly he's camp as ****... Wears lycra, has a cape and wears coloured co-ordinated boots with his outfit, he has a high level of personal grooming - This screams "Metro-sexual".
NO MANLY!!! Just like the Emperor's Children in the Pre-Heresy era were very effeminate. Or like the Pretty Marines...

all of these risk blowing up. Plus, blowing up when you shoot someone isn't manly- it's pretty much the opposite- tank can't handle his weapon.

They already have a titan with a double chainfist (one blade is useless and simply for threat value) that fires Land Raiders...
They could always mod it to fire CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS...

tank mega pack, a baneblade and a bit of plasticard work should see you through 
PM "machinator" on dakka if you have any queries.
also, if it was truly angry, it would have giant chainswords for hands, with a chainfist underneath it... like mounting a bayonet on a sword.

Insanely tough to crack armor not because it's top of the line, but because they bolted on so much friggin armor that the front of tank alone weighs almost as much as a house. The size of a house because low profiles are for cowardly pointy ears, I want a tank the size of a monster truck. Gas? What is that? I'm sorry, my tank runs on Beer and whatever this grease we scraped off the bottom of the treads is. I think it used to be a chaos champion. Artificial Intelligence? Well we have a guy with binoculars who points at crap with a sword that he wants dead. Oh, you've perfected your design over thousands of years? That's cool. We've been using the same tank for 10,000 years because if it ain't broke, why fix it? Hell, it wasn't even a tank to begin with, we just took a scary looking tractor and started strapping guns and armor to it. That's right, your filthy xenos go karts you call "tanks" are getting ripped apart by tractors with a cannon bolted to the top.
Go ahead Dakka, tell me there is a manlier tank than the Leman Russ. You weedy xenos are welcome to try, but I'm pretty sure your inferior minds cannot handle the glory that is the Leman Russ Main Fething Battle tank.
Use whatever logic you want. You obviously will never top the glorious badassery that is the Leman Russ.
