| Both. If you cry too much, people will use this to their advantage but if you cry too little, you have less sympathy. You need to cry out the right amount of tears. |

| Emotions have nothing to do with strength or weakness, because they are not something you have conscious control over, and anyone who claims otherwise is a moron. Granted, you can suppress physical reactions to emotions, and in some cases it's for the best (you really shouldn't kill someone, even if they make you so mad that you want to) but in other cases, it's really unhealthy (if you're embarrassed to smile because you think you look like an orangutan, showing way to much of your upper gums, it's because "normal" smiles are fake... just look at their eyes). So then the question becomes whether or not it's healthy to suppress crying... and there are far too many different emotions that can cause a person to cry for a simple answer... shit, crying can even be caused by physical stimuli (dicing onions, stubbing your toe, etc) instead of emotions... in which case, it's also not something you can consciously control. A few major points, though: If you cry every time you don't get your way, because people usually feel sorry for you and give you what you want, then you should be ashamed of yourself. If you don't cry when someone you love dies, you either didn't really love them, or you seriously need to swallow your pride. If you cry in response to something that should make you feel happy, then you need to find a new group of people to associate with. |
| It really depends. Crying can indicate humility, remorse and empathy, which are all good traits to have, but someone who cries a lot could also just be very weak. |
| Crying is for the weak!! yeah Im edgy as fuck!! |

| It all depends on the situation I guess, but, perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see life with a clearer view again. |

| I don't cry if i'm in pain, i just shake it off and move on if i pay attention to the pain i'm giving it attention, which will make it more painful. Also the people saying woman are mentally weak is because, woman get love / special treatment while men are raised to just suck it up they don't get special treatment, there raised at a very young age to be independent and to believe no one is looking out for them there on there own. Pretty much preparing them for the day when shit goes down and they have to sacrifice themselves to save woman and children while they die. Being raised to be disposable trash a very primitive concept which was necessary back in the day for survival it still has it's benefits though, it makes you more resilient / stronger /independent and shit doesn't affect you as much. |

That was the point. You shouldn't have to work hard to be happy, and if you do, it's likely because you hang out with pricks. Not always the case, but usually. |
| Crying is just a response to extreme emotion. It doesn't make you weak or strong and it doesn't matter whether you're a man or woman who's crying, it's just a response to emotion. |

No matter how I look at it, it's still one hell of a stretch to assume you hang around pricks if you work hard to be happy. Your vision of happiness and my vision of happiness aren't necessarily the same. Besides that, tears can be a response to a very strong emotion, be it positive or negative. If I work my ass off to achieve a goal of any sort (win a contest, get published, become a successful freelance artist) and my family & friends supported me the whole time, if I shed tears of joy once I succeed, are you still gonna assume I was hanging around pricks? If my sports team wins a very important tournament for which they trained hard and tears of joy are shed, are you again gonna assume the team mates were being pricks to each other? I don't get your logic. |

| It's not a sign of weakness or strength. We cry when we're sad or happy. It's to let out emotions? o.o |

I get your example, but I'm not sure how it's supposed to explain your point? Obviously a billionaire will most lilkely not be concerned with how much more money they get. So winning a billion dollar won't affect them the same way it would affect a poor person nor provoke an equally extreme emotion. (An instance in which the billionaire could be affected to the point of tears would be seeing their child graduate from highschool, for example). Even with the homeless person in your scenario, how does the 'hanging out with pricks' assumption comes into play? |

Even with the homeless person in your scenario, how does the 'hanging out with pricks' assumption comes into play? Imagine a submissive guy who is constantly bullied, but because he doesn't react negatively to being bullied, the people who are bullying him accept him, and consider him as a friend, but they continue to pick on him because they are under the impression that he does not mind being picked on. Over the years, he gets used to being treated that way, and just thinks that it's normal for people to treat each other like that. Then he meets someone who not only doesn't pick on him, but who actually goes out of his way to help him out. It's not too difficult to predict a few tears of joy as a result, is it? People who often experience tears of joy are also often people who are taken advantage or at the very least taken for granted. |

As a proper adult I don't find many situations in my day to day existence that make me feel like crying. Only major events push me that far. Or if I get poked in the eye. |

| Neither. Crying is a sign of neither weakness nor strength. |
 |
| Crying is a sign of helplessness. People only really cry when there's nothing they can do to change their situation because events outside their control has set in stone. It doesn't matter if it's happy or sad situation, a crying person never does anything about it, because they can't. That being said, it's not bad, it just means what it means. |
yhunata said: Neither. Crying is a sign of neither weakness nor strength. Actually scratch that. Crying is a sign of weakness. Sweating from your eyes is a sign of strength. |
|
| crying is a sign that you're human. I've seen intimidating guys cry before. |
| I've been a crybaby all my life but i never shed tears because of pain, rather sadness or sympathy, which includes an awesome character dying in a book or a movie and of course anime, or an extremely touching moment (looks at bluray discs of game of thrones, all three books of the silo series, and Anohana) so bassicly it's neither it's human just like we laugh when we're happy we cry when we're sad or extremely happy. |
 |
| The title presupposes that crying means you are either strong or weak. Whereas the act of crying is a display of emotion, and not a display of weakness or strength. To cry, doesn't logically entail whether or not that person is strong or not. |

| Well, it's not a sign of weakness though it depends on when and in which situations people start crying. I hate it when women/people start crying just to win an argument or for random hysteria reasons. For me personally I have no problem crying when I watch a sad show or something, but in RL I've only ever cried out of pain or frustration as far as I remember, never because of sadness or some similar feeling. I even cried quite a lot when I was a kid, which led to me getting bullied about being a crybaby and pussy at one point, so for 10 years I shut down completely and didn't cry a single time (not voluntarily, I can't control it), some 5-6 years ago I started reconnecting with my tears, even through anime, silly as it is. Still haven't cried for RL reasons (except maybe pain) since my childhood though. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I honestly wish I could cry more because apparently my body has forgotten how to. In the past year I've cried like once for I forgot why, and once a year before that when I watched Clannad. But I wouldn't consider myself more manly than others just because of that, just more desensitized regarding being sad. |

| I just think people cry when something makes them sad. Or if it makes them happy because people cry for joy sometimes. It doesn't mean you are a strong or weak person because every body cries. |
