Men who cry?

I had this disscusion in my sociology class, so its funny that your brouht this up to. I do no think any male who shows there emotions are any less of a man but more of a man. I think men who show there feelings are comfertable with who they are and dont care what others think about them. To me i think its super hot that a guy isnt afraid to show his emotions. I also think this helps a relationship because then the woman will know how the man is feeling istead of having to beat-around the bush because usualy men hold there feelings back and whatnot.

well, for me, men who cried are brave. because it's not easy for men to cry. they usually hide their feelings because of "PRIDE". they don't want to show how they really feel, even though they're hurt. but for those men who cry, i think they are men enough to show what they really feel. crying is a normal thing, i think everybody, women and men, deserves to show their true feelings.

I don't believe that a man who cries is any less than one that doesn't. If anything I find that it takes more for a person to be able to show their feeling than for another to feel insecure about them and try to hide them in fear that others might see him as weak. That said each person is different. Some are able to show their feelings more than others. This doesn't have to necessarily mean that a man who doesn't cry doesn't have feeling, just that he has more trouble showing them.

I think a man can cry and not feel ashamed.

I think everyone should be able to feel comfortable in crying.It's not like it's some ungodly act. It's normal. I think it's a healthy release of emotion - whether sadness or pain or happiness...whatever the emotion. It seems like torture to hold in your emotions and not let them out. Typically we are told men do not cry. I don't buy it. Perhaps they don't cry as often. Or maybe they cry alone rather than in front of people. I would never think less of a man...or woman for crying. I don't see it as a sign of being weak. I see it as a sign of stength in that they are comfortable in expressing their feelings.

Men also allow to cry.They are have many aspects of press on the life.They have the right to show their emotions.If you want to relax,please cry out.It's useful.

I don't believe anyone who cries makes them any less of a person , actually it shows that they have empathy and that they are able to show there feelings on different issues . I find it much nicer to know that someone actually cares then wondering all the time if you have made the right choice and wondering if the person really does care , as men tend to hide there feelings all the time and then you are left with , well I think he cares but I am not sure as he says he does but he doesn't really show me . I think a man that cries is a nice change . I am not saying he should be a crybaby about everything , but to let his feelings show once in awhile and to let others know that he can be hurt just like anyone else .

I think it makes them more of a man. To be able to show their feelings is very very brave. A lot braver than the sissies that hide it away and act like they have a heart of stone. I think it makes a girl really feel loved when a guy can cry for you. I had an ex cry over me and it was so hard to leave him. The problem was that he was cheating on me with another GUY!! That was horrible anyways I think it's a good thing for a guy to cry and to show his emotions.

I don't think so. The world is not as before where men are rocks and ladies are lilies. :P Men need to let us tension sometimes too.

i too think evry humanbeing has feelings and they are free to express there emotions like hugging laughing crng etcc.i think when men cry it doesnt mean that they are week i think they cry when they are really hurt or when we accuse them for what they are not responsible and when they cry it makes me believe thatthey where rght.........

Men who cry are the more compassionate ones for me... Crying means being true to what you feel.

Depends on the situations I guess. my DH is much more emotional and cries alot more than I do. he is not afraid to show his feelings at all. I think it is great.

crying is one of the human emotions. So it's but a natural thing for men to cry,too. I cry a lot even am already old, especially when i am sad, when i remember the past,when someone closed to me passed away, even when i am overjoyed, it's the "tears of joy." letting go of your inner feelings or emotions may result to crying, and that's how i show it. so i see nothing wrong when guys cry. if you have noticed it that after crying, you feel refreshed, renewed and invigorated. TRIVIA: women cry five times more frequently than men.

Seeing men who cry once in a while is wonderful to me. Its not a sign of weakness but more of an acceptance that they too like most of us have raw emotions.Its like breaking walls that are always around them because of masculinity. Tears on men is like a passage to their heart and soul that seldoms open and you seldom have the chance to take a look at it.But men crying too often well thats another story..........

Men are weaker then women in many respects but try to put on a brave front and so they cry in private but sometimes they just cant control,they are human not weak,

Wow! I really admire men who cry in front of me. Yes I agree with you, it makes them more of a man than those boys you refuse to cry because they said it minimizes their manhood. My husband is a "crier" but never did my respect for him was lessened. In fact he even gained more respect from me whenever he expresses his emotions through tears. Whether he is happy or sad or furious he is not afraid to shed tears, and it makes me love him more coz I know he is such a human after all with a very affectionate heart. So you guys, never be afraid to cry, it's healthier.

I salute a man who used to cry to show off his emotions..For me a guy who cry is the real man, because he is not afraid to show the real him and the emotions he want to burst up inside...He is not pretending that he is brave..We are all only human and even though we have different gender i think we do have equal rights...it's unfair to think that man is weak because he is crying. That's the biggest misconception here in the world. I really appreciate the man who cry of course if it has sense to cry...

crying is the best act of noblehood. =)

its ok... i guess its more because they are not afraid to show their feelings... were only human, we all have feelings that we can show how weak or strong we are and there wont be exception for that no matter if your a guy or a girl its all the same... we get hurt, we laugh, we cry, we can show emotions and its better for us to express it than showing every one that were tough but the truth is were not...

Normally a man does not reveal his emotions to the outside world. They do not show their feelings and do not cry in public, not because they are less of men but because they are suppossedly not able to so. It is good to give vent to your feelings by crying and I salute men who do so otherwise you end up feeling frustrated.
