Boys seldom cry..

I'm really wondering why most boys don't show up their true feelings. They don't want others to see when they cry. They think that if they cry, others would call them "gay". It's not a valid reason, i guess. For me, a true man cries a lot and shows what he really feels. My boyfriend told me that boys are really having a hard time in crying whenever there are lots of people. And so he only cries when he is alone and only the two of us. He cries harder than me because he seldom cries. A man who cries is a real man. Crying is not a factor why a man is a gay. It's just that crying is natural. Cry whenever you wanted to cry to wash out your pains and bad emotions. But don't cry too much..it's exhausting!:p

usually, man don't show they cry because of the thinking that crying is just for the weak. but i see men cry. those who was hurt and in pain cry. i don't see them as weak or gay. they are braver i think, to show what they really feel inside no matter what other people say about them.

Ya..men do find it hard to cry...because obviously the role of a male is to protect and provide security...crying is a sign of weakness and hence not acceptable...but of course this is the theory behind it. Now we live in a civilised society and everyone understands the hardships that a human undergoes on this planet and people are more understanding nowadays than how they used to be when 'crying men' were thought to be week. From what i've seen, sensitive guys are the in-thing nowadays!

Hi, I really agree with you my friend. This thinking that MAN DON'T CRY is an old way to think. I think that now people need to be real and natural with their feelings and it is the good thing in evolution of society.
