Are men weak if they cry?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

Men seem to forget that crying is a natural emotion not a sign of weakness. I think there is nothing wrong with a man showing his feelings. When my other half cried, over his fears of going to Iraq (always on the cards) I was shocked but felt that he must really trust me to open up to me, even if it was just a few tears down the cheek. Men are no more weaker than a woman who cries. x

Answer 3

No. It's a release. If we men never cry, we'll keep all that emotion pinned up inside and then explode on some unsuspecting person, which will make matters worse.

So don't think of it as weakness, but a SAFETY measure to the public.

Answer 4

Not at all. Crying cleanses the soul and both men & women are entitled to cry. I hope people stop labelling men as weak if they cry.

Answer 5

No.
Men have always been pretty much trained never to show sadness of any kind. They had to be brave, hard, emotionally in control.
They are not weak if they cry. Sometimes it just has to happen it doens't make the man less weak or less in control with their emotions.

Answer 6

That depends, are they laughter tears, thats no problem. Tears of joy? There is nothing wrong woth men that cry and it is not seen as a sign of weakness, but lets face it, nobody wants a man to be blubbering all over them(and that certainly goes both ways!) So try to keep it to a minimum.....

So did you?

Answer 7

They are weak if they cry over a hurt finger. They are not weak if they are hurting from an emotional experience.

Answer 8

I think a man that allows himself to cry is a much better man than a man who tries to be all brave and keeps his feelings locked inside.

However there is a time and a place to cry and there is lso the man who is a crier who winges about everything when things dont go his way

Answer 9

no because Most men try to put on a front and be all mocho and show no emotion but u know deep inside that they want to let it out but it is because people do judge men when there cryin that men keep all their emotions bottled up. so no to answer ur question it makes me want to cry when i see a man cry cause u know if they do then its because of something that must have hurt them deeply.

Answer 10

No, I actually think it makes them much more masculine. Real men should let their faults out in the open and crying in a way does that

Answer 11

Crying is not a sign of weakness. It means that we are deeply moved by something, and that makes us cry. You can be manly and still have things that bring you to tears.
