Real Men Don't Cry?
Who says Real Men
don't cry?
"Two: At my former wife's funeral. My daughter's mother/my former wife (we had been divorced for about 11 years) had gone through a year of chemo and finally her body gave out. I felt I had to be strong for my daughter, who was 21 at the time, and I didn't want my grief to trigger her grief and guilt she was harboring from not visiting her mother dung the summer. "Three: We had moved to Marin County across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco. I had been working at Foote, Cone and Belding handling the Levi Strauss account. I got gotten used to men hugging in public and a friend came to meet me for lunch. He came into the reception area and a started to give him a hug and homophobia hit me coming down the hall. I ended up deciding to give him a hug in the lobby, and that was that Since that time there have been many hugs. Deep, intimate conversations. And a whole different way of being a man. Breaking through that constant socialization's and homophobia. Now the issues to dialing back hugging women public. My how society changes. Not always in good ways. "Men. Gather around. Watch some of these videos. They will uncover a well guarded secret: Men do tear. It's natural. Men, to test this theory, watch some of thee videos. Are you man enough to tear?"
