we tend to prefer to cry alone to this day and i think that while being able to open publicly as a man and cry in front of a group is a positive thing, i believe we also need to at least recognize that this male isolated grieving is something, which men will and have to still do..
BIG BOYS.. GUYS.. MEN.. do cry..
