I am sensitive and i cry sometimes. This question is not about me, because i think it is ok but what do you think? Is it wrong for a boy to be sensitive and cry? The world seems to think so but most of it is sexist....

It's an old untrue fable that men and boys don't cry. I don't know how old you are but what you say is true. I was very sensitive when I was a young boy and cried also when my feelings were hurt and it was normal. As you grow into man hood you loose a great deal of that but it still happens at times and you will try to hide it. Don't hide it because it is natural. When my wife died over a year ago I cried like a baby. I never in my life ever figured that would ever happen but it did. I apologized to those around me but was given love and respect for doing it from my children who also broke down and cried too. It took acouple of days for the realization of what had happened with acouple of my sons but they told me that they also broke down with similar reactions. So if anyone ever tells you that men don't cry.... tell them they are liars as men cry too.

Men have a lot of pressure because they can't express their emotions freely.
It is okay for men to cry when they are sad about something. As far as being sensitive, I am not into sensitivity even from women, so I am not a good judge on that. But don't feel badly about being sensitive unless it is really getting in the way of platonic and intimate relationships.

It is bad for people to keep feelings etc locked up inside them, I do not see anything wrong with you crying or showing feelings....We live in a open free world in this day and age were people should be allowed to express them-self in any way that they feel they wish too.

It's more than ok- it's natural. We've created a world full of emotionally opressed males because of the "standards" of maleness people instill in their children.
It's normal to cry, to have feelings, and be sensitive.
Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Yes. Because you are true to your feelings you will live a long life, and will not die of a heart attack, or have stomach ulcers, like most "macho" men.
And, I know gay men that have a hard time to open up and show their feelings.
So, it has nothing to do with sexuality.

I don't think its wrong at all, we are all human and we have feelings. For me when a guy is sensitive thats makes him a real man, hes being real and not holding back feelings.

Of course it's ok. Guys are human beings with feelings. Where is it written that only girls can cry? That's just plain stupid.

Yes. I had a boyfriend who cried infront of me a few times. I was touched that he felt comfortable enough to do that.
