Real men do cry.

As men, we’re taught not to cry from a young age. We’re told things like: "Real men don't cry."

NBC

"Keep a stiff upper lip."

The Weinstein Company

"Be a man."

Warner Bros.

We’re told these things because strength has traditionally been one of the most defining measures of a man, and crying is seen as weak.
