do real boys cry?

Nice discussion! This should really be settled once and for all. Did you notice that men die younger than women? No matter how healthy the guy eats, or how fit his body is, he'll still die younger than a female. Know why? because the supress their tears. Emotion is much much bigger than our that's why when we're sad, we can't move much, and when we're active, our body just wants to leap and move a lot. That's because emotions are controlling our bodies. The more we supress our emotions, the more our bodies deteriorate. Men or boys are not exempted from crying. Men not crying is just part of chivalry. That men should be tough so the women can lean on them, but quite honestly, men and women live in a mutual world. Men need the support of women as much as women needs the support of men. What's not good is to cry loudly, in public, or because of small petty things, and this goes for the girls too.

I have seen my boyfriend cry on a few occasions, and he is in his late 40's. I think all men/boys have a certain level of emotion in them, I just think that some men can express there emotion in other ways rather than crying. I actually think that it is nice to see an emotional male, as it shows their sensitivity about things. Although saying that for me as a woman, it does upset me to see a man cry, more than it does a woman. There is nothing wrong with it, and men do not need to be labelled as tough all the time.

I think crying is just natural behavior when we are moved. To not cry is just our ability to control that. For me, I don't think we need to control our natural feeling for that many situations. Yes, sometimes we have to be strong and don't head down towards our enemies but more often, we should just let our emotion be released by means of crying it out. That would guarantee nothing is buried inside our mind which may be more harmful.

crying is not the weight of knowing if the guy is real guy or not, in fact guys are also human and if we are talking about human then it means that same as other gender like woman we all have feelings to cry if we feel pain, laugh if we feel joy and etc. crying is just part of human reaction and i didnt see any wrong with it, if i saw a guy crying so what as he has his heart too. there might be a lot of guys who didnt show they cry to hide to from others so no one will think they arent real guy but such an irresponsible person. theres too many irresponsible guys out there. i do believe that real guys are those guys who knows their responsibility and can stand everything what they are saying nor starting for.

Hey o0jopak0o, after all boys is a human being as well. They could cry or scream. They are not robot which doesn't have feeling. Usually boys tougher rather than girls. They can control their emotion better than girls and act using logic thought rather than using feeling.

The boys are educated not to cry....only of events...like funnerals... but i saw a few crying...

Hi o0jopak0o, I have seen strong men cry and I think it's very necessary for everyone to cry sometimes. It's hard to believe that in the twenty-first century there are still people who say that men should never cry. The idea that 'boys don't cry' was the way most people thought a hundred years ago. Many still felt that way fifty years ago but thankfully most people know better now. Blessings.

I find it to be no surprise that boys/men can cry and show emotion just the same as girls/women however.. I found when my dad passed away in early 2003 from a heart attack that I supressed my emotions instead of letting them out the day I found out and kept it bottled up inside for 4 days finally I couldn't stand it anymore and just let it out in heavy heaving sobs I never realized the pain of losing someone could hurt more then the news of their passing. Nevertheless it is my opinion that it varies from person to person someone may show instant sadness and start crying immediately or 20 minutes after finding out about something depressing or it may take them awhile before they realize it

as long as as someone has his/her eyes, he/she has a tendency to cry. and crying is just a normal thing that happens to us just that dependent upon the reason and the emotion.not because a boy cry doesn't mean he is a gay. i

Yes men cry too because male nature is real and emotional.Of course,this should not become permanent only when it is worth.Yeah have men who suppress their tears and think that this make them stronger but this is lie.The strong men don't hide their emotions,he demonstrated them.

I would personally say yes... but would also like to change it from "real boys" to "real men". Now, I personally haven't cried since I was about 17-18, and am now close 2, well far enough away from my teens. But if something made me cry I wouldn't hold back. Emotions have to be released in some form or other. Like when people speak highly of me in front of others I get teary eyed. And I pull myself away before I completely let loose. Not out of fear of crying, just because I'm shy like that.
