I hope not, it makes them look like they are vulnerable after all

Yes, men can cry. I see it as a sign that they are comfortable and trust me when they are able to show their true feelings around me.

There is nothing wrong with a man who shows emotion. It is not a weakness or men would be made without tear ducts. We are human and we feel emotion. It is not good to keep feelings bottled up as they will come out in another form more harmful than tears.

exactly i think maybe if men would feel they were able to express this emotion they wouldnt be bad in other forms. like showing to much anger

Yes, because just like women, they are human. In fact, I would rather the guy that I am with to cry because it shows that they have some sort of emotion rather than just anger.

I think it is ok, and very much normal for men to cry. They are human also, just like us women. I have dated guys that said men aren't supposed to cry though. But one guy I dated, just ONE, did cry in front of me! And he didn't feel like any less of a man, nor did I see him that way! I loved it :) hehehe

I saw one man cry in front of me too. I was kinda happy that men were finally showing a different side to them.

Hmm you know, I heard that men live shorter lives and are more likely to have heart attacks (partially) because they don't cry. I've seen men cry though. It doesn't make them look less like men! It makes them look human. I wish they didn't think that they have to keep up a "macho" appearance in front of others.
