Do it but don't let anybody especially your woman see it happen.

I had to put my dog down last week. I hadn't wept so hard in a long long time. He died in my arms

Do it when you're alone man. Keep frame within public and around anyone else. Especially your woman.

Don't do it in front of women.

If its a reasonable woman, she will understand when you cry about someone else getting a heart attack, or dying or something.

But most bitches lack empathy. Crying in front of women is to say that you have less value than them.

I am simply stating this from a frame of a King. A king may cry at the death of someone, but he will never cry in front of his people. He is worth more than them.

Do what you want in private. But never show anyone your weaknesses, they will be used against you.

Cry but don't be weak

I find that there's a lot of misconception here about "frame" and "weakness". There's a huge difference in a womans eyes between being weak and a moment of weakness.

Moments of weakness are very acceptable to women. It is OK for these to happen on occasion. Things like a loved pet dying. A loved one dying. You/loved one being diagnosed with an illness. Emotionally charged situations (yes on occasion it's ok to shed a tear or get choked up by a movie). These are MOMENTS of weakness. They let women know that while you're a strong man but are also capable of empathy.

Being weak is very different. You're constantly complaining. You get mad at the slightest infraction. You're constantly crying in front of her. You're constantly sad. It's pretty much just negatives that are continuous instead of occasional.

You are allowed times of weakness, especially when you are alone. You do not need to keep everything bottled up all the time.

Cry, free you emotions. It will make you feel better. It has a purpose

A few years ago I became incredibly ill with a neurological disease that was misdiagnosed several times as various mental illnesses. It was agonizing torment that felt worse than any physical stress I've ever endured. It was a pain that was everywhere and yet nowhere. It was a pain that couldn't be pinpointed or touched, but was always felt. For months, I cried myself to sleep every night. I would wake up crying because of the excruciating torture. In front of my friends, my doctors, my family. I despised myself for every tear I shed. But as time went on and my illness became worse, a combination of severe nerve-damage and psychotropic drugs took away my ability to feel emotions. The ability to cry being one of them. I learned a very unforgettable truth in that hell: one thing worse than crying all the time, is not being able to cry at all.

That being said, I believe as men we are needed to be and appear strong. When my Dad cries, he wails and moans constantly and unashamedly in front of everyone - like a child. The same type of child I despised being when my disease took everything away. Since regaining much of my health and masculinity, I believe we as men should cry. But there are others who need us to be strong, even if it means just maintaining our composure and appearing strong.

So cry, but do so mainly alone (the exception being extremely close bros during extremely difficult patches in life). Allow yourself a few moments in privacy to just embrace the sorrow, to connect with your humanity, then take a deep breath and go back to being the stonewall you and your family needs you to be. Crying isn't so much an Either/Or concept for Men so much as it as a When, Where, and How.

Support a lazy shit of a wife for 20 years and go through a divorce, lose half your shit and be forced to pay that twat half your income for the rest of your life, alimony, see if that doesn't make you cry. Prostitution is alive and well, only the pimps now work out of you local family courts. See /r/killmarriage and tell all your friends. Don't get married. Like everything else in American society, the government and it's pimps want to take your money or lock you up. Fuck this country. Move to Asia.
