My response to Facebook friend who's "Status updates" provides endless reasons for a man to remain single. This started out as me leaving a troll comment but then snowballed into the following lecture.
First The Facebook update ">>wonders why some (well the majority) of guys think they can't cry in front of u? I don't know abt anyone else but i feel as though if they cry they are HUMAN..& they are opening up to u..it doesn't make them a coward...Jesus wept and there is noone as perfect as he is...I cry about everything (when I'm happy or sad..when someone else cries..for example..."
Ok not so bad I am willing to let it slide as I do most of her updates. But then she adds this little gem of a paragraph.
"I cried when Madonna talked about Michael Jackson dieing & when this cute little black boy sang Ben on a talent show...I cried and everyone laughed at me)...I would prbly think it was too much if a guy cried like i did...haha...but there is no reason why a man can't let his feelings out...afterall...it is NEVER a good thing to hold it inside...just my thoughts...u don't have to agree/disagree :)"
Conan, What is best in life? -To crush your enemy' see them driven before you and to hear the lamentation of the women-
Do you see now Kristen? Meditate on it for awhile. Knowledge and reason are the only tools effective against the crippling affliction of emotionalism.
For the record crying is not a virtue, It's not the noble trait of the enlightened male. You have been lied to.
It is a biological function when it occurs naturally. It is due to and communicates stress and helps relieve stress like the pressure valve on a crock pot.
Baby's universally do three things. Cry, smile and laugh all done in reaction to stimulus Stimulus and stress are the same thing. Anyway as adults we take all three and employ them as tools to bend and shape those around us. Women have mastered this quite well and use it as a way of killing debate when they don't want to do the heavy lifting required of rational discourse.
Do you really want to see a man cry? If man were to allow themselves to cry often. Women would disdain them for mirroring the mentally lazy, primitive manipulation tactic of a immature women. No if a man cry's it is because his foundation has been rocked in the most violent of ways and all other outlets have been exhausted. This does not apply to the random tear,misty eyed moments we all experience. Those are most often genuine and a true expression of being overwhelmed on a positive level.
One last thing. Jesus wept because one of his closest and dearest friends died. No man would lose face over that.
As far as Michael Jackson and Madonna and that lurid, soul killing, exploitive debacle of a memorial. I don't fault you for crying you were showing empathy which when guided by reason is a virtue. But you were being manipulated into false grief by media mind control technosorcery. Civilization was not built on the backs of men with no mastery of there emotions. Please complain about the real short comings of men the list is endless and when you do try and think about the solution and not the problem unless your end goal really is just to complain.
