I can relate to this statement a lot. I had two major events in my life that pretty much broke me down to the core, and after that, I just didn't cry anymore. I can count the number of times I've cried in several years on both hands, and it's as if the well went dry and was never refilled.
Oddly enough, I had a boyfriend once who asked me why I never cried and said he wished I'd actually cry more (because he wanted me to be more emotionally dependent on him--it was not a healthy situation). I am very much about appropriate crying--for both genders. This particular boyfriend cried A LOT, and it was almost always 1. because he was trying to get out of a situation ("Yes, I'm drunk again, but it's just because... [insert problem he created for himself and wanted you to bail him out of here]") and/or 2. he wanted you to give him money.
I can't stand crying as a form of manipulation, whether in children, adults, men, or women, and have been known to walk away when such tantrums are being thrown.
But when crying is in its "pure" form (for the "right" reasons--sorrow, worship, joy, sympathy, etc.), it's just as God-given as any of our other emotions and completely healthy--for men and women alike. I don't mind if a many has a break-down in front of me because I think that's part of a partnership--you take turns being strong and holding each other up.
P.S. "Jesus wept."
You can't get anymore manly than that.
