Morphology

supermanhood = superman (semi-transparent) = super + man + hood

Formed from 'superman' + '-hood' so structure is clear, but sense focusing on exceptional 'manliness' or assertiveness is an extended, metaphorical shift.

Etymology

Supermanhood joins super ('above'), man, and the ending -hood ('state'), like in childhood. So it literally means the 'state of being a super man', which helps you remember it refers to extreme manliness, courage, or strength beyond the ordinary.
