    Is it acceptable for men to cry?

    Out of curiosity.

    If you feel it's acceptable, please explain why or under what circumstances?

    If not, why not?

    Yes, any time they feel like it.

    Yes but only under more "extreme" circumstances.
    54.05%

    No, only pussies cry.

    Men and women are the two parts of a species, why would one be naturally equipped with a physical manifestation of mental anguish, but not the other?

      Sure - but generally men are a little more rugged. For instance, my wife sometimes cries when she sees roadkill or stray animals.

        Agreed.

        My girlfriend cried during Transformers when they captured BumbleBee.

            I agree but do hold it against guys that cry after (as an example) losing sporting events. But even this I can find exceptions from...like the Super Bowl or after someone retires etc.

                My girl cries at all kinds of things... she's an emotional one for sure...

                Nothing wrong with a guy crying under the right circumstances. Death of a loved one... acceptable. Dropped your ice cream cone... not acceptable. Unless it's butterscotch ripple. Then a sad face is allowed.

                              if you have a legit reason to cry: i see no issue with it.

                              if you got a rock chip in your hood: don't cry. if you got a deer in your hood... cry if you feel the need.
