Crying

[Kurt.]

I know. . I know... but.... following a conversation I had with somebody earlier where do you stand on crying ? When did you last cry (not Everton related ) and what are your thoughts on men crying.

Hope nobody cries over this thread ffs.

It's good for men to cry and in some cases is braver than bottling everything up

 

[Zezti]

Crying is just being honest with yourself. Nothing wrong with that at all. Better than putting up a fake strong front, imo.

Why is men crying such a big taboo in the UK? It's just a neurological reaction.

I've literally never not cried at the death of a loved one or a pet.

Honestly I haven't cried since childhood. I'm almost 40. It's not because I'm macho or bottling anything up, I just don't do it. In moments of stress I've exploded so shout around or smashed up an object or two, but never taken it out on a person, not even myself in the form of crying.

I feel like I'm missing out on some huge emotional release. I do get goosepimps at favourite bits of music, and re-watching Excalibur (80's film) for the first time in decades made me sort of well-up a bit when Arthur regained his strength after drinking from the Grail. But a lump in throat and slight stingy-feeling behind the eyes is as far as it went.

Generally haven't cried much as an adult, but cried on my wedding day because my family weren't there (they're a bit [Poor language removed])

I cry at DIY SOS, soppy films, happy clips of dogs being saved from the streets, ANYTHING!

I love crying and the emotion. It is the joke of my family but I don't care, i'm proud.

 

[McBain]

I cry for Everton.
