I don't think that men should cry (and if they do it should only be in extreme circumstances). My last cry was about 7 years ago when my dad died.

You're kidding, right? :lol:

Men need to learn to cry.

I didn't even cry when my mom died until the next day or so. I didn't know what to make of it. I was so confused. I mean I was 18, I knew damn well what death was but I was in shock I guess.

I cry often, and in the most embarressing situations. Too much of any one feeling will make me cry. The last time I cried was...last night. Because of my stressful job. (I always cry at my job)

Tripping always makes me cry, but in a healthy way.

I guess I'm old-fashioned.  :shrug:

I believe that men should be brave and stoic.  We should be in control of ourselves and our emotions.

I don't think men and women should be expected to be any certain way other than who they feel themselves to be.

It's nice as an idea and all, but do you really belive that?

You dont act as you know you "should be" acting as a man?

I think men and women act differently simply by being men and by being women, but as far as how one interacts with one's emotions, I don't think that should have anything whatsoever to do with gender. I think you can decide how you want to interact with your emotions, and if you want to be in touch with them in a way that allows you to express them in ways that might not be
"masculine," that's great. I've never been much of a guy.

Dude...imagine Commander Ryker crying in every episode of Star Trek. Would you respect him as he blubbered because the self-destruct sequence had been turned on? Would you respect him as he threw himself upon the floor and cried because the Romulans just cloaked and he doesn't know where they are?

The male sex was made to hit things, conquer, and die like badasses. Anything else is just not natural.

:lol:

Actually, I kind of like the whole idea of being yourself reguardless of the roles you are taught to play by society, I just think the idea is unrealistic. Personally, I cant remove myself from the identity I have been raised into. I couldent cry in public even if I wanted to.

As I grew older and my parents became divorced I grew to really dislike my father, and I spent 7th-12th grade (formative years, in my opinion) being raised by my two sisters and my mother.  I never had a masculine role model that I actually respected until the last few years...that probably deeply affected my perception of who I was in regards to my gender.  It's probably also why the ladies love me, cause I'm teh uber-sensitive jewbot. :grin:

If it wasn't natural we wouldn't do it, im not sure why we do it but i'm guessing it's a stress relief thing so it's ok.

Whats not natural is using some star trek dude as a rollmodel for how men should be.
His is fictional afterall.
( abit like jesus and christianity but i won't go there,, :grin: )

It better be about guns and war and shit.

When you see examples of in-control and downright robotic men...don't you feel admiration?  I know I do.  There is this quiet and assured stoicism that men should strive for.  Is it any wonder why movies have men like John Wayne in them?

Could you seriously respect a man who was not in control of himself and broke down all of the time?

You're being an extremist. A man can will himself to allow himself to cry and still be in command.
