First off I am not sure if you are a man or woman. I will give you my personal opinion as it relates to me.

I try very hard not to cry at all. I will try everything in my power not to be seen crying in public. The reason for this is I am a man. As a man I view it as a sign of weakness for a man to cry for any reason. I don't even like to cry in front of my wife. Call it sexist if you want, I don't care, but I don't have a problem with a woman crying. Women are expected to be more emotional. Also when you cry you draw attention to yourself. Whether that is your intention or not you do. I absolutely hate being the center of attention.
