I heard today (on play your cards right) that 12% of women dont think crying de-masculates a man.

What are your opinions on men crying?

Ive cried in front of 3 women....all 3 were or fell in love with me at one point.


dont trust many guys opinions here on this..because they havent cried in front of a women.

Id like to see a guy here who is passionate talk about there abused childhood or dead mom or dying of cancer brother without getting chocked up..

then again some will tell you they will be over there brothers death in a week or how they next friends. :)


jk I remember 1 guy who said he nexted his friends..cool guy there!


I wouldnt cry in front of a women unless she loves you.

I agree... If your crying in front of a girl, other than sister or your mother than that girl better be pretty special. I have cried in front of one girl... i dated her for 4 years... that was it.

Some people here will say they don't cry, or that men don't cry, or whatever. Don't listen to them, it's perfectly human.

The 12% is conditional. Here's why:

1) When women talk about what they find attractive in a guy, most of what they say doesn't count for 5hit. The 12% number is probably inaccurate.

2) It depends on why the guy is crying. If he cries because she left him and he can't live without her, she'll find it disgusting and won't want to see that.

3) If he cries because of a tragic situation, she won't find it disgusting. She will actually feel with him and most likely join him to cry.

4) Believe it or not, women aren't the only ones who can be moved to tears because of intense emotion. Guys can cry at the end of movies, and when they're happy too. Not sure if this bothers women or not, although I doubt it.

5) Guys who cry for attention (like women do) will get turned away by a woman. This just convinces them that he's not a man.

Spilling your guts is as ugly as it sounds. Crying is like farting. We all do it, its only human an nothing shameful, but don't make it a habit in front of people.

That means that just under 9/10 find it alrite although it does depend on why your crying.

I am wondering mainly about crying during / after a movie because that is the only time i would cry (apart from death or tragedies).

what he said was that 12% DONT think that crying emasculates a man. That means that 88% DO think that crying emasculates a man.

I think that this is a fairly accurate, and suprisingly believable statistic.

Yea I agree with those who said it depends what your crying about.

If your crying because you spilled milk all over your new trousers, then you're a whiny little b1tch. If you cry because thousands of lives were lost in a tsunami or your friends mum just died, what's wrong with that? It shows you have a humane side, and more still, you aren't AFRAID to cry.

Crying is a sign of weakness and there is no question about that.

The problem is that there are a lot of women who think that men are told not to cry.

What they don't understand is that men just don't cry unless we are truely upset about something. If someone dies or if something really bad happens then it is ok. Women think that men are holding back their feelings, but the truth is we just don't feel like crying as much as they do. that is part of being a man.

As a man I view myself as a strong pillar that my girl can lean on. That is what makes me attractive to her. My strength is what keeps her around.

Women might say that they find men who cry attractive, but that is totally untrue. These women, like most women, don't know what they find understand what they find attractive.


If you have a woman that complains about you not showing your feelings then you are golden!

"oh he doesn't show his feelings"

translation

"I find him to be strong and sexy"

Men do cry. When bad things happen men get emotional about it aswell. It's prefectly natural and also healthy. If you don't feel like crying, then fine. But it doesn't make you more manly. Just more coldhearted. Infact, If you feel like crying but don't, then you are going against the DJ principles. You don't care what people think of you if you decide to cry. You cry 'cause YOU feel like it.

Men should ofcourse not cry in a whiny way. That repulses women. But i actually think that after a man cries with his woman when something terrible has happened, that it brings another dimension to the relationship. She feels closer to him and it's especially powerful if he's a strong man that never really cries.

How a woman views a man crying depends entirely on the situation. If a guy has a reason to cry, then women won't see him as weak. You know...someone you care about dies, you walk in and catch your girlfriend having sex with your best friend, someone steals your identity, wipes out your savings and puts $25,000 on your credit cards, you break your leg and are in horrible pain, or someone does or says something that really hurts you badly.

Everyone cries sometimes and if they don't, they need to. It's actually really good for you to cry and release things that upset you once in awhile.

Now, if a guy starts sobbing if he steps on an ant or stuff like that...then yeah, women will think you are a pansy.

i wept a few tears at work infront of my old oneitis when a fone call from home was recieved by my manager and she came and told me to to fone home. I foned home and found out a relative had just passed away. i came back shook up trying to not to cry or shed tears. I was clearing my things away and the odd tear would trickle down my cheek and i would wipe it away silently. My manager was clearing my things up and i told her im going home.

I walked passed my oneitis and she said "where you going , whats wrong?"

i had my hood on by now and didnt want no one to see my eyes that had well'ed up full of tears,

"im going home, i have to go"
"why u going home?
"some one has just passed away"
"oh, im really sorry for asking:("
"its ok"


other than that id never cry, and never cry infront of any woman or any man.

Grown MEN dont cry . Girly boys cry.

actually recent studies have shown..that ive read in readers digest is that guys cry a lot..exp behind closed doors.

I cry probably atleast 1 time a month.

im a very PASSIONATE PERSON...I CAN GET CHOCKED UP EASILY.

you think women dont like that?

women love men that are passionate.

dont confuse crying like a baby and crying for passion.

**** Vermial the NFl coach freaking cries at every press conference after a game..

he is a man loved by millions and his former players love him more then ive ever seen in sports.

his passion for them and the game...makes him special

Crying is fun. I've cried pretty much on purpose when I'd watch movies by myself. I wish I had more sad movies. Inspiration. Trust me, crying is like... something you have to do to stay sane.
