I just saw an episode of the much-loathed-here Everybody Loves Raymond. Long story short, Ray gave Deb a ‘day off’, to spend alone in the house. Spied on her, saw her sitting on the couch just…crying. Found out she was just releasing emotions, nothing was wrong, and tears didn’t mean she was unhappy and maybe he should try it. Cut to end of show. Ray sitting on the couch all alone, making sad faces, TRYING to cry. Couldn’t do it. Got up, turned on “Lady Marmalade” and danced danced danced his troubles away!
Man-crying is just a transitory phase – first crying conservative followed by bleeding heart liberal.
