The strong half of humanity is an integral part of the earthly world. The first person was a man, God in the religion of Orthodoxy acts as a man, the earner and keeper of peace in the family is also a man. The burden of responsibility is placed on his shoulders not only for himself, but also for his chosen one, for his children, for his parents. Women idolize and adore him, obey his will and listen to his authoritative opinion, his image is endowed by fate with the qualities of strength, courage, independence and love of freedom. But why do men cry?
What are the tears of a man
The concept of "man's tears" has been heard by many, but not many have seen. This is not surprising: men very rarely show their weaknesses in public. Yes, they consider the manifestation of sentimentality to be a weakness. Why can't men cry? Because it seems to them that it makes them vulnerable. Howis it he, a man so strong, so powerful, so independent and brave, will cry in front of others? For him, as a representative of the strong half of humanity, this is simply unacceptable. His tears are personal, intimate, belonging only to him. They contain his pain, his joy, his emotions, his suffering, and he does not intend to share his feelings and experiences with others.
When men tend to cry
Why do men want to cry? There are a number of reasons for this. Despite the fact that they boast of their qualities of a tough nut and the dignity of a powerful personality, they, like women, are also vulnerable and subject to emotional outbursts. These outbursts of feelings overwhelm you and break through the dam of emotional experiences with a veil of bitter tears. But why do men cry? Often the reason for this will be very weighty and serious reasons, which for the most part are tragic in nature. However, there are special cases.
Men's tears from the pain of loss
Perhaps the most common, deepest and most bitter emotional shock and source of tears for a man is the pain of loss of loved ones. This is probably almost the only case when no one will ever laugh at the weakness of a man, shown in this way. What could be heavier, more oppressive, more murderous than the feeling of losing a loved one? What could be worse than the realization that he can no longer be returned, not to hear his voice, not to see himsmile, hug and feel the joy of spending time together? The tragedy and severity of the situation, hopelessness and uncertainty in the future fill a heartbroken man and look for a way out in tears. It is a sin to accuse him in this case of showing weakness of will, because no one is immune from losses and the destructive power of pain that these losses place in the heart of the afflicted.
Men's tears of joy
The strength of bitterness from the loss of a loved one is directly proportional to the powerful surge of joy that a man experiences, for example, during some positive and happy moments of life. Why can’t a man cry in front of people and show his feelings if he experiences an overwhelming sense of joy and a storm of positive emotions? Human stereotypes sometimes have too negative an impact on the public. And the ridicule of men's tears is a direct proof of this. The manifestation of a violent reaction in the form of tears of male happiness may be preceded by the following prerequisites:
- news of the pregnancy of his beloved wife;
- birth of a child;
- a long-awaited meeting with a comrade-in-arms after years of separation;
- winning the World Cup of your favorite football team;
- achieving some meaningful career success.
Men's tears for a woman
It also happens that men cry in front of women. Why is this happening and what causes this state of affairs? The fact is that, despite the fact that the alphamales position themselves as arbiters of destinies and are free to dispose of, and not be subservient, women still have tremendous power over them. No wonder female charms are considered the strongest and most powerful leverage on the male ego. Society has become accustomed to the pattern that men lie and women cry. Why do situations happen when everything happens exactly the opposite? Because the male mental organization is no worse than the female is susceptible to insults, to defeats, to humiliation, to the harmful effects of external factors, especially if a woman leads them. Just because of their reputation, the representatives of the stronger sex veil their feelings and do not show them to others, but everything boils inside them when they find out about the betrayal, lies, indifference of their beloved, and then men cry. Why do women sometimes seek to take revenge on offenders in the face of young people with such methods: they want to see the most personal and most intimate - men's tears.
Crying helplessness
There are frequent cases of tears of the representatives of the stronger half, associated with a feeling of total helplessness and the inability to influence this or that situation. Usually it is preceded by a feeling of injustice of what is happening and the outburst of rage, anger and indignation caused by this. And in combination with impotence and the inability to prevent what is happening, explosions of aggression and anger are transformed into meager tears of helplessness. History knows many examples of how crying befell even the strongest, strongest and most persistent husbands from a sense of hopelessness in the current situation. Why do men crywhat cases provoke such a male reaction?
- An unfulfilled dream shattered by someone.
- Losing a job you love and nullifying the effort you put into it.
- Financial collapse due to unforeseen circumstances.
- Loss of a roof over your head due to a natural disaster or other cataclysms.
- Separation for a long period with a beloved child.
- Laying on her deathbed, her husband dying of illness.
Male tears from sentimentality
Another answer to the question of why men cry is sentimentality. Often it manifests itself in those who are already older, who survived the crisis of the "fatal forties" and crossed the line of fifty years. By old age, a treacherous, stingy male tear creeps up, uncontrollable, impetuous, bitter. And yet, it is necessary to distinguish between the concepts of sentimentality and sensitivity. Not always a sentimental person can be emotionally malleable in ordinary life and able to be moved by tenderness or trepidation of the moment. A sentimental representative of the strong half is capable of being incredibly cruel, while a sensitive person cannot be cruel. Therefore, you should not trust an elderly man stroking a mongrel or feeding pigeons, because he can simply treat them an order of magnitude better than the people around him. And this is explained quite simply - during the period of fifty, the body loses most of the male sex hormones. Hence the sentiment, andtears, and oversensitivity.
Men's tears of love
The most unpredictable, the most passionate, the hottest and burning tears for men's cheeks are born in the emotions of falling in love. First love, first touch, first kiss, first night… All this has a powerful euphoric effect on the psycho-emotional state of a man. And now we are talking not just about some fleeting affair, but about really the first, real, sincere affection for a woman. This is manifested not only by carnal attraction, but also by unbridled platonic love, the desire to hug, warm, protect your woman from adversity. A man wants to cry again and again from the happiness of possessing his beloved, because she awakened feelings in him that he had never experienced before. And he again and again idolizes the one for whose sake madness is committed. The one that deserves a million scarlet roses. The one that turned everything upside down with her appearance in his life. The one who taught to love, to love passionately and ardently, to love infinitely strongly and ardently.
Men's tears from the contemplation of beauty
It may seem strange and unbelievable, but the powers that be also cry from the beauty they see. It is hard to believe that sometimes rude, sometimes uncouth and brutal in their habits men can be influenced by beauty, and this beauty can give rise to such completely unexpected emotions in them. So, a lump approaching the throat and moistened eyelids can be observed in a younga man looking at a ballerina performing the dance from "Swan Lake" in her gentle, light and mesmerizing series of air movements. As well as listening to an amazing musical composition performed by a symphony orchestra or representatives of high art in its best manifestations can touch a strong representative of society. The beauty of music, choreography, painting, opera, ballet and other types of virtuosity absorbs listeners headlong, and men are no exception. They, too, are able to appreciate the quality of the material they listen to and watch, and are moved by the power of contemplating such a wonderful action unfolding before their eyes.
