A loud and obnoxious fraternity guy with partying, acting stupid and engaging in despicable behavior as their life style.
I don't get it. If someone made a command called "bi###", people would feel that it was hostile towards women - and understandably so. But then someone creates a command with a name that - by your account - is hostile towards a certain kind of male archetype, that name is... hostile towards women?
I think a lot of people are familiar with the term. It is not a compliment.

Yeah, it can mean all that, or it can just mean "friend"...

What are the other usages? I genuinely don't know of any beyond the "bro culture" thing. But then I'm not a bro, so maybe I wouldn't.
It's short for brother. People sometimes refer to their brothers as "bro."
It's worth nothing that, AFAIK, this usage is a lot, lot older
