Men and their emotions

Hello coffee lovers, The conversation we are about to have is not going against men at all . For many years men were told not to show the feelings because it was a sign of weakness. That's why I can only assume that males after a certain century seem tougher and are most likely not to show their emotions.
Men who express their emotions, for example sadness or even grief,are often seen as weak. Because of that, many men neglect to show their emotions at all because they're afraid of the repercussions.either being made fun of or yelled at for showing their sensitive side. However, suppressing emotions and feelings can be incredibly detrimental to a man's mental health and may be carried over to their son’s life as well. I spoke to 10 men about their emotions in their younger years. I asked them if they were able to show their emotions as a youngling. Believe It or not only 2 were able to show their emotions and others had to suppress what they were feeling. Many were harmed emotionally or verbally if they tried to show their emotions. I also spoke to a woman about her husband’s behavior when they first started. He did show his emotions very strongly and his wife thought that was interesting. But his brothers held it in and did not show it much. As I spoke to these men I realized that different cultures did different things.I feel as though the environment that they grew up in and who they were around most is how their emotions were built as they got older. Men had to be tough when it came to their fathers or who they grew up with because their dads thought the world is tough and they should be just as the same as the world. I don’t know but these days men are able to show their feelings ,show their emotions more than ever. In my opinion they didn’t show their emotions to their child because they wouldn't be able to handle their dad acting as if their world was over. Not showing made it seem to their children that they had everything under control and that's how it was. I must admit the way I grew up was the same and I grew up not showing my emotions. I still feel weak when I cry. Yet I know it better to cry and get it out. I still have these habits even if I am a woman. At a time I saw myself telling my older son to man up when he was younger. I think it was the worst advice I could have given him. I am learning to be better and these generations are not afraid to show their emotions and I am happy for them. I think I envy those who can easily show their emotion and I hope men from the past are slowly changing and looking at their examples of their future for help. I guess this is why I write because I can express how I feel. Men show your emotions, women will respect you for them and if for any reason they don’t,maybe you should look elsewhere . because having tears does not make you less it makes you more because you are strong to show that you have these mentions and you can show it if you want to. I do want to thank all the people who opened up to me and let me know what it was for them. It took strength and I respect you for talking to me and being honest. Until our next conversation, talk to you latte. #menandemotins #mentalk #emotions #coffeelovers #bloggers #blogs #read #readers #talk #newgeneration
