I was one of 7 children, 4 of them boys. My father taught us that REAL men cry. I only saw my father cry when his boss and mentor died suddenly and when 2 of my brothers died. They don't cry over everything. They cry when it is heartfelt.

There's a time & a place. There's nothing inherently wrong with it either. I think we do need to be more stoic with our emotions in general though. Myself & many other men are in positions of leadership in our families. No one wants to look into the cockpit of a plane & see the pilot crying ya know 😂

[elephantintheroom]

Real men dont cry about the little things. We save it up for the big things.

[APFITOOM]

There’s a definite masculinization & feminization of certain or specific HUMAN emotions that lends to all types of misunderstanding for both genders.

It is HUMAN to emote, and all humans are born with the capacity to feel & experience a range of emotions.

It’s culture & conditioning that has convinced us otherwise.

In other words, men are allowed to release their pain through tears, just as women are allowed to experience anger. These naturally occurring responses do not make us a lesser grade of our respective genders, but they certainly confirm our humanness!

Great topic! As always, my spirit is moved by the thought provoking insights you give in your teachings! 🤍

We just do so alone, then get the hell back up and face the Misery.

It comes from the fact that women generally will feel disgust for men if they do in most circumstances. And society at large will not care if a man does. The weeping of a man is viewed as an embarrassment at best, and an inconvenience. And you can say otherwise all you like, but that's the reality that many men have experienced and will continue to experience.

[DustinMcArthur-ds]

I love the way you speak man very well spoken

[sheogorath-the-incrazy]

I tried to cry once

My eyes started sweating.

[TheRedLettermedia]

Men absolutely cry. I did in church today after feeling the Holy Spirit. For me, it was always metaphorical for not putting your stuff on other people. As men, our problems are ours to solve, not the world.

[blasebarrett]

Yes, there is something wrong with being overly emotional. Never overcome that once you feed into it so it’s constantly damaging you as a man. I’m not saying don’t have emotions, but keep them in check.

[DavidMusick-gh]

I weep. I wept at the berms in Saudi Arabia at my aid with the Doctor and I cared for our wounded. I weep in the presence of the Lord the Living God. Real men cry.

[robgrant]

As long as a man knows not to cry in front of a woman. There’s so much evidence that shows that they lose respect for us when we do. Best done alone or with family or friends that you truly know care about you. Just my two cents in 50 years of life as an American.

[RTRGUST]

Your woman doesn’t want an emotional man. She wants confidence in her man like she had in her father.

[Ninjastarz]

Men who think crying makes you less masculine aren't real men, they are just pretending.

Seeing a grown man cry for a good reason is a powerful thing to witness

[DrSho]

If a man cries, if he’s vulnerable, women will ALWAYS use it against the man as a weapon when the couple are fighting

[godcorrodedgod]

If you let others decide what is masculine or not, you are not very masculine.. You are who you are and it is what it is. Do your best with what you got.

[jayy]

Just don’t cry in front of a woman. If you cry either do it alone or with a close male friend. I’ve had guy friends cry in front of me and I was able to empathize and understand their pain.

[EdgarFernandezBenshimol]

Oh we cry but not in front of everyone

[uncaboat]

The problem is, we have women and babies as the Model for How You're Supposed to Cry. And women and babies just blubber and bawl all over the place over every little thing. Real Men might cry, when the occasion truly calls for it, but not like that.

[rebeuhsin]

Yes. It a horrible world. Show weakness and you will crushed. For thousands of years. Maybe the last few centuries are better? You can gave any emotions you want, but your appearance and behavoir needs to logical or agressive, or some combination.
