Do grown men cry?


Jen in a post on her blog started me thinking about grown men weeping, crying or shedding a tear.

One of Australia's most successful Prime Ministers, Bob Hawke was famous for shedding a tear on cue and in front of a camera.

Today I found a pic of George Bush shedding a tear.
So, it's only fair to ask, is it OK for grown men to cry?

Little boys cry just as badly as little girls. It's just that when little boys grow up, they feel inhibited in showing emotions and especially weeping.

Here are pix of a few things that make me cry...

I better stop here because my eyes are all wet.

heh. that makes me want to post about stuff that makes me teary eyed.

I can understand it when men cry over serious stuff but when a guy cries over minor problems, it's way too sissy.

Oh it's a mystery to me.
We have a greed, with which we have agreed...
and you think you have to want more than you need...
until you have it all, you won't be free.

Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.

When you want more than you have, you think you need...
and when you think more then you want, your thoughts begin to bleed.
I think I need to find a bigger place...
cause when you have more than you think, you need more space.

Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.
Society, crazy indeed...
I hope you're not lonely, without me.

There's those thinkin' more or less, less is more,
but if less is more, how you keepin' score?
It means for every point you make, your level drops.
Kinda like you're startin' from the top...
and you can't do that.

Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.
Society, crazy indeed...
I hope you're not lonely, without me
Society, have mercy on me.
I hope you're not angry, if I disagree.
Society, crazy indeed.
I hope you're not lonely...
without me.
