Is it OK for men to cry in public?

Correction: …the posters who feel men should not cry in public almost unilaterally…

It’s not clearly implied at all. I think we can assume that Dirty Kash would also be disgusted if his friend had broken down and cried in his home. He cleary implies that men should not cry at all. HE was disgusted by the crying itself. That it was in public, to him, magnified the faux paus.

If you want to argue that Jennyrosity’s statement is logically inconsistant, well then, you got me there. :smiley:

I disagree. But your interpretation is just as valid as mine.

Now, if he ever bothers to actually come back to this train wreck and let us know, I’ll be amazed.

Cool.

Please, the strawman is hurting, he feels so used.

If you can’t tell the difference between crying while driving a schoolbus, and crying while sitting down in public, I have wasted 2 minutes replying to this.

Quite right, my bad.

Still learning my way around here.

If he starts crying, he’s on his own.

Guilty as charged! In fact, I’d say that was true of everyone on the “boys don’t cry” side of this thread. A shame, it seems, that so many of the “Sensitive New Age Guy” proponents missed that and instead took the opportunity to show the ugly sides of their own on-line personas. Review the thread and you will see that it was the “crybabies” who first began hurling personal insults.

I’m reading this at a public Internet terminal. Scumpup, you have made me so happy. snif [wipes away tear]

:smiley:

Straighten up and fly right!
Slap!

My pleasure, LouisB.

Scumpup, have you ever considered that your histrionics come across like the outbursts of an ill-mannered fouth grader? Trust me, they do.

Only on this MB could a thread about men crying turn into a discussion of Lord of the Rings…

Zenster, try getting a sense of humor upgrade. Your’s seems to be lacking.

No upgrade can be properly calibrated if it interprets Scumpup’s posts as humorous in any but an inane quality.

An upgrade usually expands the ability of a program, or removes a bug. In this case the bug is up Zenster’s butt and presumably up your’s, too. Maybe such ‘low brow’ humour is beyond you. Oh, well.

Zenster,
You are a pompous, sneering little man with an ugly way about you, and you really aren’t the least bit likable; but, I expect you hear that all the time.
If I were the emotional sort, I’d feel bad for you because of the sad, grubby little life you must lead.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAW HAW HAW!

Wow, that Scumpup really is funny!

wipes away tear of laughter

Scumpup, between you and Zenster, which one was it who filled this thread with lying bullshit and then tried to pass it off as “humor?”

When I first read his posts in this thread I recognized it as humour. That you didn’t isn’t Scumpup’s problem. It’s yours.
