Cry.

Sure, why not .. but when you are absolutely sure that the person you are crying in front of is not going to use your emotionally vulnerable situation to their advantage leading to more pain and more reasons to cry.

Don't unless you can find an isolated spot where nobody can judge you. Society does not tolerate men having emotions.

I appreciate the sentiment, but you are sending the message to the wrong place.

You should tell people they shouldn't shame men who do cry.

Just not with a women present. They won't look at you the same afterwards.

Nah. I rage. 😀

Unless you change your message to: "Men, it's okay if you cry, and it's okay if you don't cry. Be yourself." you're not speaking to men. You're only speaking to the people who want men to be more like them. It's just replacing one set of expectations with another equally bad or worse set of expectations.

Remove the stone of shame. Attach the stone of triumph!

exactly. it makes me so sad that society views emotions as feminine, and that femininity is degrading. femininity is not degrading, and being vulnerable is not feminine.
