Unhappy Grown Men Crying...

A question for y'all...

Should men cry? and if so, under what circumstances. Around their girlfriends, around their parents, around their siblings, in public, only in private, only in the company of a prostitute?

If some degree of crying is allowed, what degree? Sobbing, whimpering, sniffing, balling, etc?

This may seem like a stupid post, and it may very well be one, but its a question worth asking one another.

Just think, the next time some makes you cry and says you shouldn't cr, well now you can print out this post and show them that we are all down with crying, but wait, that only works if people think men should cry. So make up your minds!

:cry:

or

:cry:

I really try not to cry, especially in front of anyone. But when my son was born I was a blubbering idiot, tears of Joy and in front of everyone.

cying is like smoking..its a sign of weakness... BUT hold on dont flame me just yet!!! BUT this is a general statement

( I mean this as in crying all the time over stupid things like not getting your way, or crying from physical pain)

When you experiance a significant loss, or hurt deaply in some way, I dont think you should bottle it up... There are rules to crying lol... Dont ask me what they are, you just learn them from life experiances..

Oh one other thing, Crying cuz ur drunk is perfectly acceptable...lol
I love you man!!!...lol

Crying is normal and I think that it's ok... WITHIN LIMITS!

If you're like overly sensitive and you're crying coz the sunset is beautiful or something like that then you have a problem, but if you're crying coz someone died or you got hurt in some way then it's perfectly all right!

tears of Joy are always ok .... like when you laugh to hard at the movies that your eyes start to water....

tears of pain are bad .... no tears no pain

BAHAHAHA... funniest thread this week!!!

Maybe cuz I've been through a lot, but I don't get emotinal or cry... I'm not sure if I'm capable anymore. And the last time I can remember... when I was prolly 11 or so it was a single tear down my eye... not a fookin mental breadown like some ppl have Hahaha...

Whatever, you can't control that, but you can control your behaviour, whether you curl up in the fetal position and sob or just maintain your composure... that part is up to you.

Jeff *hifive* you da man... surely I'd :cry: as well on such an occasion.
