we can be angry or we can be happy if our team wins.
And thats all we get, Angry or Happy. why is this? we don't live in the distant past anymore but we are still supposed to act like we do emotionally.

I await the replies from other men accusing me of weakness for suggesting that we should ever dare to have more than 2 emotions available.

You are allowed as many emotions as you want to have. There is nothing wrong with expressing emotion in an honest communicating manner. There are some out there who are trying to change the cultural norm and you can join us. Be yourself, be honest.

I think in "in the distant past" men may not have been so obsessed with being emotional clones. Its all part of this "being one of the boys" thing.I believe if you feel it let it out,unless its going to hurt someone then its best to just punch the bedroom door or something. All this effort of showing the right face is what leads to heart attacks etc. etc.

I don't understand why some answers advocate for two emotions. I never counted them, don't want to restrict them and don't want to put stickers on them. I can feel sad, I can feel depressed, I can feel excited, happy, angry, elated, enthusiastic.
Are those not emotions? Are there robots in the audience?

i often wonder the same thing and i agree with you we dont live in the distant past, men shouldn't feel like they can't show other emotions. hopefully times are changing and it wont stay this way forever

We can go beyond but to do so takes confidence and courage. Its not something you may want to display down the pub, but let yourself go to feeling every now and then.

You know, you are allowed to feel sad, or even cry.

I guess you could be non-committal. If you're angry; you're a yob, going to break something and are being baton charged and arrested before you know it.
