do guys afraid to show anyone when they are crying?

hi amyson yes a lot of guys were programmed by their parents as little boys that boys are not supposed to cry.I think this is so wrong as boys should be just as sensitive as girls, how dare they make boys stuff their feelings like that? well some men do grow up and become as sensitive as us women but wish more would also.

Hi amyson I have to agree i can't show that i am crying, but i have a very close friend of mine, we text a lot and when i am sad i let her know, there was a time when i was weeping not crying lol, and i text her that i was low and was weeping but i don't know i can't ever cry on the ph when i talk to her, i just can't, i don't know why! but yeah i can if something very very wrong has happened. have a nice day amyson!

i know for me,it depends who's around me but when i was growing i was always told big boys dont cry or hurt. so i think a good percentage of men was taught this well growing up. but to me if a man cried and all of my friends who are guys knows if they cry in front of me or me cry in front of them we dont judge or think less about each other, we just real with real hurt feelings

Yeah, that true most of the times men are not showy to show that they are crying and more likely go to the bathroom or lock themselves in their room to cry. As most men associate crying as a girl things and avoid being seen crying may be term as a effeminate things to do.

Hi amyson..Its been years i havent cried. There were few situations where i felt of crying..but never did, i controled it. Why i did, i dont know, it is not because im afraid of showing them...im telling you my personal feeling. I dont want to cry in front of others..it is not about prestige..what i feel is in that situation i woud prefer supporting the people around rather crying, just to give them moral and mental support...even if im hurt very badly...because if i broke out in front of them the people there can even brokeout more...(This is regardind family matters). And to my personal life....i would do the same... I do cry when im hurt very badly...but in shower. i don't like to show my sad imossions, makeing the atmosphere unpleasent for others...rather i controle it - cry in shower - get back to life solving things. But still friends can make out im hurt..I try to spread positive kind of atmosphere....i love to see people laughing and enjoying...i cant see them hurt...its a very sad feeling for me... And it is very true that we are equalent to your imossions..we are also human being, we too have feelings, but we react differently. So, For me its not about being afraid or losing manhood etc. Take Care...

I think being a man doesn't measure on how he is flexible with his emotional feelings. It is fine to cry for sometimes and it wont lost any manhood thing. I appreciate guys that more sensitive because they will understand.

I think that most men are told, as they grow up that m"men don't cry" and this causes them to try to hide it any time they do feel the need to cry. I have always felt that it takes MORE of a man to show his emotions than to hide them. I have always tried to tell my boys as they are growing up that it is okay to cry because they are just as much human as I am and well, human beings cry at times. I do not want them growing up thinking that they shouldn't express those emotions.

For me it depend on how the guys crying. I don't mind seeing guys crying, but depend on the situation and the causes that make the guys crying. For me, a guy who really showed their emotion is a great guy compare to a guy who continuously showing their macho side, but have nothing at all actually.

Man is supposed to be stronger than woman. In the society, they are supposed to be the main supporter of a family. If they craying in front of others. They fell embrassed and ashamed. And the whole society exits the concept that man should be strong forever. Otherwise, they are not deserve to be the relible supporter of a family.

Hello friend, I don't think men were afraid to show their emotions by crying in the open/public. It is the society that thinks about it. I knew few men who were not afraid to show what they really feel and cry infront of people. It is not the gender that matters when it comes to emotion/feeling of expression. When someone is true to what he/she feels,no fear or humilation can stop them from crying and doing it even in public or infront of some audiences. Men are just stronger when it comes to controlling their emotional feelings,but,inside that man is a little boy crying...

Hi amyson I'm a girl and I don't think man who cry will lost their manhood thing. On the contrary, I think that's cool and brave, because with cry, at least he is being honest to himself that he feels sad. Start from that honesty, I hope he can recognize himself better and find the solution. How can people find solution if they even don't know or don't wanna know the problem? For me, crying is normal as a human. Beside cry because of sad, we can cry because we feel too happy, and really, nothing wrong with that

of what i learned from guys theyre nah so showey in there emotions...they should be tough and strong but the truth is emotional inside just hide it...coz i think maybe if they seen weak they will nah be respected...

i don't think they're afraid of crying publicly... but really one will wonder why! i'd definitely think twice if i ever saw a man crying -- say in a restaurant! i think it's okay for them to cry privately like if they're with family. i think crying makes them feel better too but they tend to refuse to let the public know because they might think he's weak or something :) but i think that only shows that guys like him are sensitive to the situation at hand and i think i'll respect a guy more for that.

I guess it is somehow true due to the different programming guys and girls are receiving during their life journey. You should be a man, you should be a symbol of power, do not show your weakness, the world stays on your shoulders, blah blah blah. Another stupid artificially thing implanted in our male brain and very rarely questioned. Crying is not a weakness. Crying is releasing, cleaning of your soul, the resolution of any tensioned crises. And after all, men are also human beings, even they don't think so all the time. And human beings are crying. It's the first thing a new born is doing when meeting this world, So cry people if you feel like it. Your manhood will still be there after that :)

For sure, guys need to save their faces in front of everyone he knows, and even in front of everyone he doesn't knows. So, showing he is crying can be a shame to him. So, usually a guy will hide his emotion on the face. Don't you agree here all the mancho man?

I think that men in general don't like to show that they are crying. They might feel that it makes them weaker to show their moments of tears, especially in front of females. Women seem to be more willing to show their tears no matter what. Men seem to hide it more. Maybe they just don't want their buddies to see how human they really are.

yeah i think you are right but in my opinion......crying means boys dont cry ofently as so many girls do..but they cry infront of everyone.........i think they are not afraid of crying,they dont want to get any sympathy from anyone.......its not the matter of loosing the manhood...its the tamperring of the society on the man
