The Pros And Cons Of Weak Emotions

They can fight, show aggression, and are rarely admonished for that.” The ways boys are taught to express their emotions and handle them from an early age is unhealthy. Being told to not cry when you’re upset is making them feel like it’s not okay to accurately express themselves no matter the emotion. Even when older, men are less likely to say how they really feel even in romantic relationships which in turn can cause uncertainty and confusion between the two parties. Therefore, being able to cope and actively express and act on their feelings as men or young boys can be beneficial and rewarding in their everyday life. To be able to take control and be in charge of your emotions is an amazing and liberating feeling that everyone should

Often when boys get hurt, or fail class they will not show them out, they try to hide the emotion inside them. Over the story, it seems like boy’s are fear of what other people think of them and scare of reject, they carry on their emotion inside, they afraid people around them see their weakness. These prove why most boys don’t cry even though they are hurts. If the boy cry or act their emotional out then that boy is a sissy. Pollack states, " Men take a whole range of feelings and emotions and put those behind a mask.”(P. 73) These show that boys have to stand on their own two feet try to be tough and they are a shame to show any emotion. According to Pollack “boys are shame phobic and "some will even kill to avoid shame”. It seems like the society only allows men to express their emotion only through anger. With many strict conflicting expectations, a

From having dinner with the queen of France, to barely even having any dinner, The Heir, by Kiera Cass, is a drama filled love story about a future queen named Eadlyn. The Outsiders, by S.E Hinton, however, is a violent story about the hatred between the Socs (privileged boys) and the Greasers (underprivileged boys). There is an equal amount of similarity as there is difference between the two characters Princess Eadlyn and Ponyboy. They live completely different types of lives, have very different goals and ambitions, but also love and value their friends and family immensely and live tough lives.

Dance is the beginning of the unit and therefore serves as an introduction to mental and emotions.

Today, gender roles somewhat loosened compared from the past years, and cultural winds have somehow shifted back the idea of crying as a sign of manliness. Sharon Martin, a licensed psychotherapist in a private practice in San Jose, California, suggests that there are many advantages to having a good cry. “I encourage crying because it purges negative energy and allows for new, positive energy to fill us up. Sometimes people feel embarrassed or ashamed about crying, especially in public. Crying is normal and nothing to be ashamed of,” she told Medical Daily in an email (Borelli par 3). “Shedding a few tears does not only mentally cleanse us, it can cleanse our body too, she added (Borelli par 4).”

Boys and girls are completely different and emotional literacy shows that girls will express their feelings in some shape or form but boys won’t even give a facial expression or any emotion to show how they feel. Many parents instill into boys that they must be tough, heartless and trust no one. Raising Cain states that boys cry more as babies but as boys get older they express less emotion. (pdf)

At an early age, we are told not to show femininity or emotions at all. In the article, “Masculinity In Sports,” written by Michael Mansour, he states that “Men do not cry it’s a sign of weakness” (1). It is saying that crying is for the weak and you cannot consider yourself as a men if you cry in front of your peers. Recently, a family member of mine has passed away and throughout the whole day, I constantly cried and cried. This emotional event that occurred shows that I challenged the stereotype of how males should not show their emotions no matter what the cost. Although society does not want to see us males cry, it is okay when you are impacted deeply about

Kids, teenagers and sometimes maybe even adults still have to put on a front of who they really are. Growing up boys were told that if you cant take pain you aren't a man or if your afraid to step up someone you're a “Pussy”. The words kids commonly hear now. As “men” we do not cry. As men were not aloud to express or show are feelings.

Are men and women both equally capable of tears? Also does a man still retain his masculinity if he is seen crying in public? A better question to ask: why is a large emphasis laid on an imaginary/intangible aspect of a man? As described in Dr. Ronald F. Levant's Masculinity Reconstructed, the traditional male norms include: “avoidance of ‘femininity’, restricted emotions, sex disconnected from intimacy, pursuit of achievement and status, self-reliance, strength, aggression, and homophobia” (Levant 12). We live in a society that is changing the role of men and the way they are viewed. For decades the saying, "grown men don't cry," has been drilled into the minds of boys and young men. When is it appropriate to cry? What is a man supposed to

Crying is the companion of the spirit and the cure of the soul . In life’s ups and down , tears are the closest and most loyal to the heart . When one is melancholic , s/he cries , and when one is jovial , s/he cries too . However , some people consider shedding tears is exclusive for women , who are modest , compassionate , sensitive , soft , nurturing , intuitive , sentimental , docile , inconclusive and emotional but prohibited on men who are supposed to be aggressive , sturdy , rational , emotionally detached , power-loving and focused on potential and authority . On the contrary , an opposing party interferes , protesting and defending man’s natural right to express his feelings . Throughout history , men’s crying has always been a controversy , but quite the majority of people – males , females , specialists and religious people – acknowledge shedding tears as the most natural phase of man’s face expressions that reveal strength , sentiment , love and respect .

One incident where I wish I would have handled my emotions better was the day before my second Biology test. Previously, I thought I did well on my first Biology test but I ended up doing poorly. Therefore, naturally, I was worried for my second Biology test. I figured I would do just as bad if not worse since the material would be more difficult and over unfamiliar information. My fears caused me to panic and start crying, and I cried for about an hour. One of my friends comforted me, but in the end, I felt bad for wasting both of our time and putting both of us in a miserable mood.

Crying, getting emotional, expressing hurt – these displays are forbidden for boys. Boys must be the strong ones, and girls must be the weak ones. If traditional gender roles are to be believed, girls can display these emotions because they simply do not possess the self-control that is required to hold them back. Children learn to exhibit the emotions that are acceptable for their gender from the beginning of childhood; it is made clear to them the role that men and women play in society, and the role that they each must fill. However, the repression of certain emotions in children based on gender can be detrimental to a child’s emotional health and development, because doing so does not allow

It can be useful to examine broad-based frameworks of meaning with patients when exploring prior conflicts that have been reactivated by recent stressors. Through processing earlier trauma memories, therapists assist patients in gaining insight into how latent, maladaptive self-schemas were activated by the current trauma. It may be necessary to challenge concepts of the self as worthless, incompetent, bad, shamed, guilty, or weak.
