Mixed. I am usually apathetic due to the sheer number I've met who use it to get their way. It has numbed me. Sometimes I feel pity but rarely enough to do anything especially if I already know the reason. One time I found it so hysterical, I had to leave. I was having lunch and trump was being sworn into office on a big screen they have there. One girl stood up and clapped, most people just watched with mixed expressions, while discussing, and one was legit crying. Her friends had to comfort her. Granted I don't know the reason (maybe she or someone she knew was definitely getting deported or something i don't know but i found it funny like the psychopathic sociopath that i am. I couldn't take it so before I crashed a smile, i got up and left to a store across the way to calm myself down.

Most guys don't like when a woman is crying, but most also don't know what to do to help.
Buy, if a guy ever feels like she is faking it to get her way, he will never trust her again.
My man seeing me cry is probably like that. He just wants to fix it but feels helpless on how. I’ve seen a man cry once. It was my dad. And boy was it hard to see! I didn’t even see my grandpa cry when he was dying of cancer. But seeing my dad cry broke me up inside.
What are the options: men feel generally good or men feel generally bad when they see a women crying? lmao

Depends who she is. I already have really low empathy so if I see a girl that I don't know well crying then I could care less really. It's not my problem.
If she's someone that I know really well then I feel a bit more regarding her tears. Girls that I know cry about everything, though, so it's kinda hard to feel sympathy and be upset over it.If I can, I empathize with them and be supportive. My guy brain used to want to fix the problem so they didn't cry anymore. Now I'd empathize so they can express their feelings, may try to cheer them up if seems appropriate.
Men are humans like everyone else. Some will come over and help a person who is in distress, regardless of their gender. Others will walk by and pretend they don't see the woman crying.
I used to take it seriously when I was younger , then I figured out they're faking or overly emotional most of the time. If you're crying, someone better have died or you're full of shit is how I see it now.
I feel concerned and if i get a bad feeling about why they are upset or seen what caused them to be upset I would go over and see if they're ok and try offer a friendly ear and/or shoulder
What he meant is he feels like an asshole for making her cry.
He doesn't care if she cries, but he cares about his image.. He prefer if she waits till she's alone to cry..
Pathetic guy.It's extremely uncomfortable there are so many men who rarely feel upset enough to cry and when they do they don't know how to feel with it themselves its worse when you have no clue what it's even about and you have to try to help without understanding
It hasn't happened recently so I'm not sure how I would feel but when I was younger I would try to make her feel better, maybe by staying silent and just let her hug me for like 2 hours wtf 😂
Pretty much this
I dont really care that much. I mean its sad for people to cry but I probably had nothing to do with it and I always fuck things up even more when I try to fix them.
Stay away from her, she might want to start talking
I've trained myself to not allow other people's emotions to have an effect on mine while still being empathetic. So I wouldn't feel much, and it's quite easy to tell when someone's only doing it for attention, which is very common.
triggers a kind of protective response but i've learned to suppress it, cause lots of women just cry for no reason and don't even want attention, cause it's awkward to them.
When I see a woman cry, I feel bad for her, and try to comfort her if she lets me. But some people just push everyone away when they cry, that's when I just comfort them from a distance 😅
Depends. If I can tell it isn't genuine for the girl to cry, I don't care. But if it's real tears, I always want it to stop, so I'd do damn near anything to make it stop
I used to give a shit, but when multiple women were able to cry on my shoulder but they couldn't be bothered to be there if I needed to talk about something. Now I see it for what it is, attention seeking
That's happened to me. I didn't know what to do and I was just praying for my other female friend to show up
I feel uncomfortable and weird when anyone cries so I just quietly get out of there. Beyond that I feel nothing.
That's kind my weakness. If I see a woman crying, I have to make a move, even just to ask what's wrong.
Depends why she's crying
If a loved one just passed, it's understandable
If it's because her favorite movie didn't win an academy award...….
