re: You Ever Heard of Grown arse Men Crying?

Right, but how do you know there aren't other things going on in a person's life that have piled on and then said person has a terrible day to push them over the edge? Life's complicated.

Everyone has a breaking point and no one is exempt. Sometimes it gets expressed in different ways such as drug abuse, alcoholism, beating the shite out of a spouse, kid or animal - none of which are acceptable. I would much rather the guy cry and get through his cathartic release than do one of those other things. There is also a thing called clinical depression, that can elicit this emotion at unpredictable times in unpredictable places. I have been around long enough and am comfortable enough with my masculinity that I am not going to bash someone over crying. The only time I object to the emotion is when females try to use it as a weapon in efforts to get their way on something.
