Asians are very racist, misogynistic, and teach toxic masculinity. Yikes
Yes, it felt burdensome to cry in front of people. I worked really hard to unlearn that but every so often I still apologize for crying. Luckily my besties love me and remind me it's ok. Now I hug all my nieces and nephews when they cry and tell them to cry as much as they need to. ❤
Thank you for breaking this generational taboo ????
Yeah, in my family if you cry when you are being mocked, shamed, shunned, they call you a sissy. A weakling. I am a woman. I still couldn't cry as a child in public because that would mean I am a "woman" which carried the tone of being lesser, weak, stupid, etc. Sadly, I am the type to cry when angry. So my defense was to become numb. I became so numb that now, at 25, I am having a hard time understanding how to feel again.
???? It’s the opposite in my family, crying is only ever okay if someone dies.
for a long time i tried to emulate my stepfather who never cried but that never worked. i wasn't really ever told to not cry and tbh often when my mother was angry at me she would yell and insult me until i cried which i guess made her feel like she won.
I was watching Brett Cooper (idk why) and she went on and on about how men shouldn't cry, it's so unattractive. I was infuriated, she's teaching boys some horrible stuff that will affect them so much in the future and she gets so many views! I guess if a man cries he's a radical leftist in her stupid opinion.
I am the same way. I cry at the smallest of things at some times.
I think he called you because he felt you would understand, listen and not chastise him.
I cry if I make a mistake at work. Nobody cares about the mistake, but I just cry.
i am this way too. i hate that i cry at everything but i do cry a lot.
???? I've struggled with crying easily. Now I embrace it. It's part of who I am.
Thank you so much for letting him cry. I only recently learned how powerful that truly is, between a father and daughter. ????
Her voice is so soothing
I’m a guy and I cry often when I’m alone, but I think most people do and just won’t admit to it
I cried hysterically at my brother’s wedding this weekend and the judgement from my Korean side was tangible :,)
I too am pleased with the cries at everything gene. However, as I get older, I realize that crying is so therapeutic and releases so much emotion. I always feel better after crying.
In my family crying is a acceptable to everyone but my dad though I still hate when I do it especially in public because I don’t like to show weakness
Parents cried a lot, but would yell at us for crying. In retrospect I think it was a combination of lack of maturity from them and overstimulation from the noise we were making. Now, I just don't care to cry cause it gives me such a headache.
Oh, wow, that poor man. ???? Gorgeous mushrooms!! ❤❤
i love crying
Crying is not a bad thing at all. It's healing. PERIOD
Oh my Lord I got the crying gene. I cry when I get angry too which is so frustrating. Honestly when I lost my little girl to cancer I thought for a while I'd never cry again because I felt nothing but when my son was born my tears came back & I was so grateful
