You must never cry in front of a woman if you want her to respect you (sociopaths, hubby)

I'm just saying that deep down, women know they're lying to themselves when they say they want a man that's not afraid to show emotion. I simply pointed it out



To each his/her own.

How in the world can you speak for 100% of a demographic, particularly a demographic of which you are not even a part?

I agree with the "to each his/her own" comment.

I'm pretty sure it's applicable in some moronic circles. Not the common consensus though.

I was with a man for decades who was relatively emotionless. I believe he though it made him more masculine.

I never again want to be with a man who can't cry. Emotions and feelings are important.

no, we've said we've seen men cry and it hasn't changed our opinion of them.

Man or woman crying at the drop of the hat, is something else though.

I've only cried in front of my wife once and that was over my dog dieing. I Loved that dog, I'm a sucker for pooches.

No it isn't. This thread proves that it isn't.

I know what you're saying. Your first post said it clearly enough: If women don't agree with you, they are lying. Saying it again won't change my mind. Or make your statement true. I'm really curious why you think you know better than every single woman what their own opinion is. I'm also curious as to why you think women dated men who showed emotion, married them, had sex with them, had and continue to have great relationships with them, etc etc if they didn't want them and weren't attracted to them? (hint: there's no good answers, it's just plain ol ridiculous)

I'm not trying to change your, or anyone's mind. Congrats to you and other women that have great relationships with men that are comfortable enough to be emotional with you and not be judged for it. Some women aren't like that, they will look down on a man that cries or shows any kind of emotion. The "to each their own" statement simply means that if a woman wants a man that shows emotion, that's her perogative.
