No. I don't understand why guys get this type of rep..that when you cry you're weak. I actually think it's more attractive when people cry. It shows that you aren't afraid to show your real feelings.
Crying doesn't make you weak at all. I respect people for being so open about their feelings.

I think there's also the matter of ugly crying faces that people want to hide XD jk
no, a person who cries is stronger because they aren't afraid to show sadness.
im a swordsman, a martial artist and considered to be wise by some of my friends and and i cry when i am sad and i cry when i feel sorry for another person, if crying makes you weak than i wouldn't call myself a swordsman

People who don't cry aren't necessarily weak, you know.
This could sound crude, but if he/she cries all the time, yes.
[EDIT] To make it a bit more clear, I'm saying that even if you've been through something traumatizing, of course it's okay to cry now and then. Like a guy from my class. He didn't come to school one day because his grandpa died 9 years ago. Now that's a pretty big thing, but to just keep on crying after all that time... yes, that is pretty weak.
really this is not an english class so why does it matter how people talk or type i mean you knew what they were saying and it wasn't intetnional so whats wrong don't you have anything better to do then worry about how they type
I think that when you cry, you are the complete opposite of weak. It takes a strong man/woman to cry. When you cry it shows you have emotions, and you're not afraid to show it. Someone who doesn't cry is weak, because they don't want to be thought of as weak, when actually if they cry they'll be thought of as strong.

I also cry very easily. The second time I read HP through, I was bawling about the fact that Dumbledore died. He's a book character and I cried... Lol I'm not afraid to admit it either. I just admitted it to the whole viewing world.
Is a person who cries weak?! I cry when I feel sad,lonely or etc so I must be really weak! lol but I think if a person shows their feelings then they are brave,but when a guy shows their feelings it's really rare (I have only seen my dad cry once lol) and that's cool.
No, off course not. But some people cry for a very silly reason.It all depends how much you've been through.
Also: people who don't cry are not necessarily weak! But some people have been through so much that tears won't help. I don't cry alot, but that doesn't make me weak. No one has the right to say that. You can't judge anyone without knowing all the facts. Is it really so much better to hang on the phone for hours and crying for something you caused than to try to fix things and pick up your life? If I to cry by every thing that happens to me I wouldn't be able to stop. Sometimes people don't hide their feelings to spare other feelings. Do you think it would've helped if I cried in front of my sister 'cause she did a suicide attempt? No,I pulled myself together and I've tried to help her. And I don't cry when I'm physically hurt. You learn to take some pain when you have a sister who has had over 20 surgeries. Saying people who cry are strong and the opposite is weak is both shallow and rubbish and it proves none of you knows anything about life. You can't judge people by tear amount of tears.
Sorry for the rant but I felt the need to defend people like me.

it would be ok to cry if your sister did a suicide attempt because you almost lost her! so i agree & don't at the same time :)
No i don't, actually there are some people who cant help it. I have Autism and therefore i cry too easily for my liking. I am always being told that if i didnt stop crying i'd lose my job, but its unfair to expect that of everyone, because some people, like me, have a condition.
I hope not. I cry all the time. I have bad depression, panic attacks that hurt bad from my Anxiety disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder. I cant help but just have a good cry sometimes. Plus I feel like a failure-I am 21 and have not succeeded at two majors I tried. SO I am stuck trying to figure out a career I might want.
It just means that you are more in touch with your emotions and you haven't grown jaded enough to be unable to.
But in some cases, yes. In 7th grade, i had a girl in my class that cried everyday over little things. At first all her friends would gather around and croon "Aww, you poor baby!" but after a while, even they started to hate it.
I don't think crying makes you weak, but excessive crying is a different story.
No it doesn't mean you're weak that's why I find it quite sexist because guys get told that's being weak so it's calling girls weak because girls are aloud to cry! Crying does NOT mean you're weak!
Not at all. Person who cries is strong enough to accept the truth and face it by letting it out.
When the truth is so painful, we cry and while crying we deal with acceptance of the things that are.
No, it takes a brave soul to express inner emotions. For a lot of people, including me, that's a difficult thing to do. Especially when everyone around you never listens to your crying.
I do for reasons of me being tormented by bullies when I was younger, the teachers doing nothing, and them beating me harder, verbally and physically, whenever I cried. I also come from a family that tears you down if you cry. I would love to have the freedom to cry, but that's just not in my nature.
Um no.When you sometimes cry it is about a breakup.Sometimes about a death in the family.If you had a death in your family and you cried because you were sad makes you weak?I think not.
No absolutly not. crying is a good way to get things out and i mean come on you have to admit that you usually feel alot better after crying. Keeping all those emotions inside is not smart they are bound to come out sometime and it might be alot worse than a few tears. To cry is to be human its a natural response and its definitly not a sign of weakness
