Tears

When did crying become a sign of weakness?

I will destroy your army single handedly - with tears running down my face.

It is not a sign of weakness - it is passion, it is the human soul.

When our heart is hurting, we cry - simple as that.

Parents who hide their tears from their children, deceive them. I walked in the room and caught my mother crying - she immediately composed herself and dried her eyes - "whats wrong mom?" - "nothing honey, im fine" . . . . ??

Its not wrong, its not that you are losing control - it just means you are hurting.

Cry! Its ok - I will cry with you!

This myth needs to be buried. Those who have taught crying is a sign of weakness were wrong.

SirsBabyDoll(sub female){Pizza+☕} - ❤️❤️❤️ When I allow someone to see me cry, it is my most vulnerable state and a sign that they are deeply trusted. Even hearing me cry over the phone is a state of complete nudity for this non-exhabitionist.

SirsBabyDoll(sub female){Pizza+☕} - The only caveat is add is that while I agree with being able to show your emotions to your children, NEVER, EVER, EVVVVEEER should you burden your children with adult problems. Don't lie and say things are ok but let them know that while you are sad/mad/fustrated etc, and that it's ok to BE sad/mad/fustrated, that what is going on is adult problems and it is not something they need to deal with. Children are naturally empathetic and will want to try and be your emotional bandaid. That's NOT OK.

Bunnie - I see tears as simply the language of our heart. I don’t just cry when I’m sad. I cry when I’m happy... overwhelmed with joy... with compassion... with connection... with frustration... with anger... with love. Many, many things have brought tears to my eyes :)
I absolutely agree that it is not weakness... quite the opposite in my view... it takes a lot of strength to allow others to see our heart so openly.

Literate Lycan(dom male) - I concur! And I agree with Bunnie - sometimes I laugh so hard I have tears coming down my cheeks. If the right song comes on or a poignant scene in a movie I might tear up (13 Hours is a tough movie for me to watch). I think sometimes as parents, they hid concern from children and didn’t mean to let us know crying was bad - it just somehow stuck because we can feel even if we can’t see the tears. As a man I have learned it’s ok to cry with those you love and trust.

Belladonna Dreams(sub female){Lost} - What's funny is i only view it as a sign of weakness for me. I don't think others are weak for crying. I think they are stronger for it.

The signs are strong - we as a race need to change - it begins within -

Water Lioness(sub female) - To allow someone to see you cry, is to be totally vulnerable in their presence. A level of trust I usually reserve for my Dom. Perhaps I should rethink.

Grey Eyes(sub female){Owned} - For me, crying is a release of emotions, happy, sad, even in anger. I cry at some movies if they touch me emotionally.

Sir Don(dom male) - To say we cry can say we are soft but strong, some hide there tears because of shame. I personally as a young boy was made fun of for my tears and vowed to never show them to anyone ever. I can say since GE I have made a change back to what I was. Releasing tears helps me release some stress. It's okay to cry

Grey Eyes(sub female){Owned} - Yes, it's ok for men and women. It's vulnerability at its best in my opinion.

HGB(sub female){Scottish M} - I'm more like Morley here. I cry at the drop of a hat. I can't tell you how many times I have caught people off guard, been looked at as being unstable. Especially when I'm mad and frustrated.
