really depends on situation
for example: if a gets a bad hair cut or a bruise they defintely shouldnt cry...if someone they know has just died then its completely up to their emotions

Suppose so, just wanted to make what I meant clear, rather than just say 'no', because about 20 people had said that already.mireko said:
Crying has its time and place for both men and women. As a woman, I don't like doing it in public but it can be very refreshing when you need it.
I don't think men shouldn't be taught not to cry. Of course you should be taught to be brave and have control over yourself, but there are moments when crying is expected and welcomed. It's a great stress release, and sometimes it's just plain involuntary. I cry when I laugh if something's funny enough.
All things in moderation, though. It is kind of creepy for a person to burst into tears all the time, regardless of their gender.

I don't really like it when anyone cries too much. Crying is appropriate in certain situations, like:
1) Losing a loved one or family member
2) Losing your job or a vast amount of money
3) Losing in a competition in which you have put years of your life into winning
4) Or because you've lost a meaningful relationship
If people cry because of the 4 things mentioned above, I totally understand why they are crying and I do not mind. But other than that, I really don't like it when people cry too much.
But what I really can't stand is the wailing. Crying, sure. But the hysterics and the wailing and the moaning and the shrieking? It really annoys me. I will accept that if you've lost a family member recently, it can be acceptable to wail and shout, but in all other cases, if you're going to cry, PLEASE DO IT QUIETLY. I don't mind sniffling or tears or a few quiet sobs, but PLEASE, don't scream and shout and wail like the world's coming to an end, unless you've lost a family member, or you're about to die. Those are the only two circumstances in which loud crying is acceptable.
But to answer your question, no, I don't dislike the sight of men crying any more than I dislike the sight of girls crying.

Of course not mostly because you should not care what others think.
I try not to but I will shed a tear if am in massive pain (luckily I have a high pain tolerance). There are also times like when something terribly sad happens, like when a family member dies. I might cry tears of joy or happiness but those are far less common for me. And from what I have heard some women like a sensitive man. But I try to look strong while I cry and not look like a baby.

Ewww.. I thought we left these macho stereotypes behind in the 20th Century. Time to grow up, Boys DO cry.
the worst fucking thing in the world for me is my father crying....its happens rarely, but when it does I die alittle. Also my husband...
And funnily enough watching Will Smith cry KILLS me and I can't help but weep with him, that agony in leaps to his face....bascially the best authentic cryer in film these days

It's not wrong. At least not to me.
Frankly, it would draw me more towards a man who can cry.
But I suppose the main thing is for relatively serious things. You don't want a whiny man.
I think that's what the main concern is for women who don't like men crying. They worry it's too feminine. But few times I've seen manly tears haven't looked girly to me.
Maybe it just depends. Of course, every time I see a guy cry or hear it at all, I tend to start weeping with them so it probably wouldn't benefit them in any way with us both in tears.
