Men crying is normal to me, it is not attached to their masculinity nor attractiveness. It dos not suddenly deflate my opinion of any of the men I can think to see them cry. Nor do I think they are better. I would however be worried about how I comfort them, with a woman/ child we use physical contact and soothing words. I would feel that I may make a man feel `silly' if I suddenly jolted him out of his sobbing by the usual sympathetic measures. I am more inclined to think of a man as being sensitive not by crying but by his reactions to an animal or old lady. Crying is a normal unremarkable function when overwhelmed.Its what is behind the crying that reveals the sensitivity.
