    it has never been a shame for a man to cry. It is a shame to cry for silly things when you are a man!

      Crying is a reaction to strong emotions, which has beneficial hormonal effects, especially if it’s because of psychological pain. When someone cries you can be sure, that they have all the reasons they need. Whether it seems silly to you or not, for that person it’s a big thing and should be taken seriously instead of invalidating and demeaning them.
