what i thinkis that has Allah has given them more strenght thn women.Man rarely inspired as compared to Womens...Womens are more emotional and sensitive as well....they damn care abt is it reality or just a Drama? i hav find my self that women watching Dramas or while reading som fiction or Novels ..on sad scences ..they started weeping ......rarely man weep ...........Man hav the power to absorb and tolerate more as compared to Women
daniel shah, u’ve had a very sheltered life,
crying at a sports event, what would u do if something REAL happened?, like say 1 of the players broke a leg, noose around ure neck from the nearest tree…weak ass mofo
A man bursts into tears after a tough day at the office and concernedco-workers rush to support him. A woman sobs in the same situation and her distress is barely acknowledged. Why such differing reactions? It all depends on what we don't expect, contends Purdue University psychologist Janice Kelly, Ph.D.
Her research suggests that when men and women display emotions inconsistent with the gender stereotypes we hold, we're apt to think that those feelings are more genuine and legitimate. Men are expected to show anger and stubbornness, women to express happiness, sadness, land fear. So a crying woman is just more of the same, but a sorrowful man is such a rarity that we believe he must be on the brink of disaster. Likewise, an angry man is common, but a livid woman is so rare we think that she must really be furious.
Even so, a woman's feelings still don't carry the same weight as a man's. Women typically are seen as "emotional" and their reactions viewed as overblown. "We tend to discount a large reaction in women," observes Kelly, while men are more likely to be admired for showing their true emotions. A man who panics in stressful conditions is seen as honest or vulnerable, for example, while a frightened woman might be regarded as overreacting.
The way we view men's and women's emotional expressions may have an impact on our romantic relationships. Emotions may be given more weight according to who expresses them, not how sincere they are. Thus, that heart-toheart conversation with your partner may not be an equal trade, after all, since in the currency of emotions, a woman's feelings are worth much less.
Sara, did u read my post above where I mentioned a hadith? There's nothing gay about it. Even Psychology says that it is healthy to express your sadness thru tears for either of the gender. As someone else mentioned it is social conditioning and our biased approach that stops men from expressing. Nevertheless, some do express and I totally support that. I don't mean that I wana see every man crying in public but b/w the two it is cute, it is bonding :)
if a player of another team breaks his leg then i will be cheering. what real thing, dude I’ve seen many things in my life, and noose around the neck is OK i guess i wish they give me some acid or E pills before so i can enjoy the colors.
once my big macho cousin-brother had teary eyes after we watched a sad movie…we never get along but at that moment i just wanted to give him a big hug…he looked so cute!! tout ke pyar araha tha
Okay for those who think men shud not cry, pls. don’t hate my post. You have the right to your opinion. Am going to quote the following that I learnt:
One of the greatest quality of the human heart is “Riqqa”, a typle of brittleness. The Prophet :saw: praised the Yemenis because He said that Yemenis are more brittle hearted than other people, they wept easier. That was better for them in terms of their relationship with Allah :swt: . Because of the descriptions that Allah gives of the people that love Allah is that they weep easily. Spiritually women have total advantage over men in that area because most men have a very difficult time weeping. And Prophet :saw: actually said, that if you can’t weep, then at least fake it But women don’t need to fake it because they can weep very easily and when they take the spiritual path, it is something that comes very natural to them because they actually have that Riqqat-ul-qulb. So women have advantage over men when it comes to taking a spiritual path, while men have advantage in physical strength. So Allah :swt: balanced both sexes. Indeed He’s the Just one!
