A Bullo / a Bull in Italian usage signifies "A young arrogant, violent thug, bravaccio. In no way bad, bellimbusto, as the person with refinement, without being able to be elegant." In Rome this young Bull has an "overpowering desire to claim personal supremacy, [not necessarily in material goods], the drive to the athletic competition, the sense of 'honor, courage in the challenge of open and fair, the memory of the "Roman" lived as the old admiration of heroism...in this sense, the bull, rather than a bully, was considered a capopopolo, a man who emerged individually but within a system of values collectively recognized."
