Like to put it in perspective, I didn't cry much when my dad, aunt, and grandma passed away, (typically death makes me angry rather than sad), but those 2 events....they really just messed me up, especially TGM, incredible movie, but holy fuck it's sad. During the 2 hours of crying I tried at multiple points to stop myself, but only managed to go for a few seconds before I started crying again.
A fellow man of class I see ?
stami,i am a man
I can't even list all the animes that made me cry. Once a funny comedy series slipped in a sad episode and I was like, "This is supposed to be a funny show, you tricked me!" between sobs. Stealth sadness.
Disagree - real men cry. You show me a manly man who never cries I'll point out the creepy sociopath or possible psychopath in the room.
I only sign this if it is about the death of a close relative or a trauma, but not for a movie or even an animated film! Sorry
That's adorable lol
And this right here is the exact reason men have a significantly higher suicide rate than women. People tell them to only show emotion when someone dies and then wonder why they never tried to get help for their emotional issues ?
Heh, I'd like to see you go through the movie without crying, https://yts.mx/movies/the-green-mile-1999 go free up 3 in a half hours of time, sit down, relax, and watch.
Kind of depends. Obviously not crying during a movie isn't the same as not crying when a beloved uncle dies. But that kind of tragedy is relatively uncommon. There's a bit of a correlation between not feeling sad during movies and not feeling sad ever. It still relies on empathy. The kid who doesn't cry during Bambi is a kid you might want to check on with a psychologist. A man who never cries might be lacking in empathy.
Listened to the song a million times but haven't seen the vid. Someone remind me to watch it when I'm in a better mental state lol
If your a military man, watch Gone away by 5 finger death punch. If something is rooted in past experience or losses it tends to hit much harder.
The military wouldn't touch me, my fat ass, my list of medications, and blurry af eyes with a 10 foot missile tbh
Not really. I never listed the frequency with which I cry. I only said it's usually anime that gets me. Even then it's like...3 times a year on average? Maybe 4?Not crying at all and crying at every occasion is extreme differences. You seem to cry at every little occasion. it's ok for you, but i miss real men.
Hits pretty hard already due to my failed past relationships.
Agreed. I lost an aunt who was as good as a mother to me (and my mother is great) a couple years back, and now scenes of loss have an extra kick that they didn't use to.
Dude, men cry...because they're HUMAN! Anybody that has the capacity to cry has a sense of empathy, and this is not restricted or exclusive to any one gender; this is a HUMAN emotion and a HUMAN trait.
You don’t have to be apart of it for it to be felt.
