Why Can't Boys/Men Cry?

It is extremely attractive when a man opens up about his emotions

You should eat more

Hahaha good comeback!
I’m only in College so my CV fits onto two pages. Education and work experience and references, that’s about it

if you want to monetize the knowledge, bbc just published an article about the professions that pays more. Also, if you are into academics, it makes sense to go for post grad course.
Currently in uk, you pay the same for a course that will lead to lower paid job(many in general arts stream), so I am not sure its a good idea to go for higher studies if you are doing one of them... its better to get into job and acquire some skill in that case...

He has no children. All my pretty ones?
Did you say "all"? O hell-kite! All?
What, all my pretty chickens and their dam
At one fell swoop?

Dispute it like a man.

MACDUFF
I shall do so,
But I must also feel it as a man.
I cannot but remember such things were
That were most precious to me.

btw these are pay after 5 years... do not choose career solely based on that, in some of the professions the pay package increases much faster with experience or with your position in the hierarchy of a company. For example in medicine you got one major employer, so although it has highest salary in the graph, many other professions might pay way higher than that.
also it depends on what you are good at and what you like, if you choose an unsuitable one, you will be miserable at work and cant compete with your peers... so please don't choose career based solely on salary.

Culture thing? In Italy its ok for boys / men to cry. We do it when we lose in sports. we do it when tragedy strikes in family.

This society has made things so hard for men when it comes to emotions. Why is that?
Crying in difficult times for men or boys don't make them weak. Is it the fault of this society as whole or the environment an individual is raised in play a role? I was reading a report on this and one psychologist stated, All their lives they were told, “Real men don’t cry,”. But I personally believe, only real men cry. Also, scientifically speaking, it's proven good to cry out for your health both emotional health and physical. It releases toxin from the body.

In another article I got read this, "From a physiological perspective, when humans get stressed there is an increase in adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Over time as this builds it leads to more stress that demands to be released." That is actually very scary. Severe depression at least once make the thought of killing yourself cross. Very unfortaunelty, many times people do attempt suicide.
Additionally, of you talk about class system, I have observed in middle or lower middle, let alone crying in depression, even crying on death if someone beloved to you is taken strangely. Men can't even cry on death of his wife, even that I have seen. They always get to hear, "mard bano" (be a man). That is so unfair.

This needs to be changed. It doesn't make you look weak a man. I would ask you all male members and my friends on this forum and visitors to manage the useless pressure of this society and do cry when your heart is heavy.

More power to you all.

Sir you are free to cry as much as you want. Most people wont judge your crying. But how you cry.. your antics will be judged by most.. wether you cry like a girl or a sissy.. will determine your impression

Imho crying is a personal thing like masturbation... if you cry or dont cry should not matter to the world. And if its upto yourself and only yourself..so matter of perception doesnt arise.. wether you are been seen as weak or not
