I hear what you're saying and I agree but as a woman, I'm also judged when I cry. Women are judged all the time. Maybe we're more used to it than men?

Oh, it’s awful. During my divorce (he cheated) my in-laws kept telling me I had to stop being angry for the good of the children, that I needed to stop being emotional. They didn’t feel the same 1/2

You're right! The reaction is the socially gendered thing

Ah, the patriarchy. 😔 in my life, I've heard a lot of people say that when women cry, it's manipulative.

My father was a firefighter for 20 years. He learned the benefit of crying. 🥰

I feel honored when a male partner or friend of mine has expressed negative emotion especially crying I strive to be a safe space

I have been trying to explain forever that emotions are not male or female, they are human. 💛

100%. And sometimes, the teaching is through role models rather than explicitly, as in my case. Only my peers judged me, but my dad was very stoic.

I wish I was able to cry. I haven’t cried for 35 years. I am just not able to.

a coworker said "female emotions are so exotic" on a team call and I was speechless.

Women are also expected to bottle up their emotions too, because people are apathetic when we are emotional because it’s normalized for us.

I think your emotional maturity and emotional self-awareness is something so many men could learn from and benefit from.

lauraelizabeth4.4 :
also men have rebranded anger as “not an emotion” so that nobody can call them emotional when they’re screaming

I’ve also experienced that older generations of men very much express them in anger. It’s the easy way out

EJ 🦫 :
As a woman, I bottle up my anger. When I've tried to express anger in the past, I've experienced misogyny and been told by male supervisors that I need to be calmer when I spoke up in an employee forum. I've had to practice saying "I'm angry" out loud.

Also why is anger an acceptable emotion for men (or treated as not an emotion) ?

I think the non-gendered emotionally intelligent goal is to be able to name our feelings. Crying isn’t necessarily self-aware. Men are so often not socialized not to “admit” vulnerable feelings.

It's a learned response to trauma. Unlearning the association between a man showing emotion and a dangerious situation takes time & work for many of us.
