Guys, is this how men function?

[Anonymous]

I was really upset today and I had anger and I felt like I wanted to cry but I couldnt and I told my male friend and he said then ignore it and watch something fun.. is that how men work? To me I need to cry out when I need too I can't just ignore it, it won't go away like that.

Unfortunately, a lot of men are like that, yes. It's super unhealthy to suppress emotions, but American male culture is especially toxic that way. It's why our suicide rates are through the roof.

Yeah he is African tho and we are not in US.

But I get what you are saying

[JackCarter]

Not all men... this has very less to do with gender and rather just depends on people
Ways to deal with stress and sadness varies from person to person...

[Asker]

Alright makes sense!

[JackCarter]

Cool... how you feeling now by the way?

[Asker]

Im good

Most masculine men, yes pretty much. As boys growing up most of us weren’t cuddled. We were told to be strong, that you’re a boy, not a girl, boys don’t cry. That no one is going to come rescue, rescue yourself or life will leave you behind. I think men can handle a lot more harder things than women can. Women tend to cry about a lot of things, especially things that men would think are just stupid. Sure there are some men who cry just as easy. I think the bigger thing too is men tend to live more in reality than women.

Well put! Makes sense!

Yeah I guess the last point is also true

It's depends how close you're with your male friend...
I have female friend very close i told her whenever she need me when she is sad or depressed I'm just call Away...

And we met n I listen her n give her hug...
That's the reason we made friends. No?

[Asker]

Yes we are that close but I wonder do men just ignore their feelings and move on if they need to cry or they cry?

[Opinion Owner]

Ofc we cry we're human too but it's depends on situation...
I never cry for girls or love but yeah for friends & family.

[Asker]

Okay makes sense

[Asker]

[Opinion Owner]

[Asker]

You have female privilege which allows you to blubber on about your feelings. Men don't have this luxury.

[Asker]

Yeah
