not reallyif you're a man crying over a movie, you need to grow a pair.
do you laugh at comedies? do you get startled at horror movies? (good movies I mean)
is just a Human response, people crying over sad movies just mean they were able to connect more
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. But there is absolutely zero "manning up" in crying. At all. Under any circumstances.
A man crying is absolutely and without question the showing of a very unmanly feminine side which should be purged from all real men.
That being said... 3 or 4 years ago when I had to put my dog down, I blubbered like a woman. But when my youngest daughter (who was 3 or 4 at the time) took my face gently between her hands...and then slapped me like a _____ and told me to man the ____ up, I got over it.
OK...she really didn't slap me. She just held my face in her hands and said "It'll be all right, daddy". Which, in fact, had the exact opposite effect to "manning the ____ up" on me.
that is so sexist, LOL O my god, Crying is a completely normal and natural Human response, it only means you are not a robot, yet.
The "Man Up" part is actually admitting you cried. Anyone can play internet ruffian.
