Well personally I don't cry, but I have seen others cry. Like my best friend; he's rather passionate towards football... \n\ni guess that makes you a weird freaky fanatic... :P no worries plenty of others do it too

Some people are cryers, some are huggers, some are "I love you man"s, some are just mean.\n\nIn the grand scheme of drunks, crying isn't all that bad...

We release feelings, emotions-verbally discuss with other women etc.and also find ways to lower stress-also cry when upset which also releases stress, negatives .In general men tend to bottle things up inside for required to act "manly'. Keeping things bottled up  esp. negative emotions, feelings increases stress levels which  can lead to Hyper tensions, heart disease, heart attacks, strokes etc.

Most guys try and hide thier feelings from someone they love because they don't want to feel/ make them selves look vulnerable. They are afraid of rejection just like some of us. Sometimes they are just playing hard to get and want to make you work for it. That and the whole "boys don't cry" thing that has been ingrained by society. Society had screwed up many men...

yes some men cry. i cried at my mothers funeral and the day she died. i also cried when my son was born. your bf is either depressed or thinks playing sensitive will get him points with you. how women react to a man cring is up to her. my gf at the time of my moms death was very compassionate and held me and listened to me about how i felt. my son is now 2 yrs old and my wife still talks about how sweet she thought it was to see me cring because i was so overwhelmed with happiness to hold my new born son. again though it is all up to the individual on how they react.

Masculinitiy is good for both sexes . A very few of societys established masculine behaviour and most of  feminie behaviour are bad . Exaple :  Man try to hide sorroness and donot able to cry easily though it is helpful for health. So , it shoud be avoided.\n On the otherhand omens excessive dependency and willing to be dominated are socities established role . It is also have to avoid for better life.

I believe that men and women learned while they were growing up whether it was okay for them to express their emotions that way.  It's more socially acceptable for women than it is for men.

In today's society, it takes a very strong man to cry. I think it is more sad to see a man cry because men today are usually ashamed of their emotions. I also know several women who can turn on the water works just to get their way. I never assume some injustice has been done just because a woman cries. I find out as much of the whole story as I can before I make any judgements. (I judge actions not people)

We are men, we don't cry usually but we definitly are moved and come close to tears.  Just because we don't show our emotions on the outside doesn't mean that they don't exist.

1. Yes, but I never actually believe that it's for "no reason".\n\n2. Sometimes there are extreme hormonal shifts which can cause unexplained bouts of emotion.  Either that, or high stress can cause frequent crying also.\n\n3. I do not envy women for their pain!  I think about that stuff, and I am very glad to be a male.  That's why women deserved to be pampered and treated with special care...because they go through enough negative stuff as it is!

I admire a strong macho man because I feel safe and secure with him.  Also I have been married to a rough and ready cowboy for 22 years now and I have only seen him cry 3 times.  once when his dad died, once when our son was born, and once when our son was hit by a car and almost died.  Showing his emotions only made me feel like for once I COULD PROETECT HIM and it was so awesome being needed.  I know what u mean- alot of women want a sensitive man but half the time they yell he's a woose!  You cant win for losing!

If you are a guy your emotions are more intense, they wear them out and the effect lasts longer i.e. they don't recover as fast as women. That is why some men stay away from potentially emotional situations. I think we, the women should have respect for that, and sometimes just back off.

not all men are weak, they are just unsure how to say what they feel, men's emotions don't mature for many years beyond what their bodies do.

B/c guys are taught from a very young age that it's not "masculine" to be emotional.  We are taught to hide and repress our emotions.  As a result, it can be very difficult for us to talk about them as easily as girls can b/c we're not used to it.  It takes effort and practice and we have to sometimes unlearn the bad habits we were taught growing up.  You just need to be as patient with your bf as possible.  And provide helpful insight.  Sometimes you can help him figure out what he's feeling by placing yourself in his shoes.
