>>318990one poster. you dumb fucking scrote. i, another poster (see, this concept is called individuality), would get so horny that his tears wouldn't be the only wet thing on his face.
she clearly stated that she'd never 'seen a guy cry irl before.' of course it was disturbing, if we can infer she comes from an environment where it's uncommon. someone showing vulnerable emotions when you're not used to it, especially from men, is off-putting. not everyone knows how to deal with it. i've debated whether or not to start crying with a man, because there was a risk of him feeling pathetic and/or nannied. it's not easy to know what to do.
whether men should show emotions with their partner or not becomes a case by case situation with no specific answer. generally what i've gathered is that when women say they want 'vulnerable men', that doesn't necessarily mean they want to witness a teary breakdown or hear about some irrelevant long-gone issues that don't impact their connection.
but granted, saying 'be emotionally open with me!' then not specifying that you only want it in very serious circumstances - and that you don't want to see him blubber over his dead dog - does weaken the sentiment overall and bring into question why women bother asking for it at all. probably virtue signalling in some cases
