1. Money won't prevent crying
Women in wealthier, Western
economies cry much more than women
in poorer countries where women have
fewer rights, says Dr. Ad Vingerhoets, a
clinical psychology professor at Tilburg
University in the Netherlands, as quoted
by The Wall Street Journal .
2. Crying is not the same in every
language
There's a distinct melody to the way
people cry in different cultures. It's like
linguistic differences: Germans
emphasize the first syllable in the word
"papa," while the French stress the
second. Newborns come into the world
all crying the same way , according to a
German study published last year in the
journal Current Biology . But as they
grow up, they're socialized to a
culture's specific manner of weeping.
3. Big boys do cry ...
Men cry less than women in our society,
but as men age, they tend to cry more
easily. They might simply be "provoked
by altruism, camaraderie, and issues of
morality," says Dr. Vingerhoets, as
quoted by The Wall Street Journal.
4. ... and in the past, they cried even
more
Men are discouraged from crying from
boyhood, but it wasn't always that way .
Professor Tom Lutz traces the change to
the industrial revolution, when mostly
male factory workers were discouraged
from letting emotions get in the way of
their productivity. Men, including Jesus,
cry in the Bible. "Male tears are the
norm," Lutz says, as quoted by the
Journal , "and males not crying is recent
historical aberration."
5. There's science behind men's
distate for women's tears
Men detect a unique chemical
component in the tears women let loose
when they're sad, and it discourages
them from feeling sexually aroused,
according to a study published in the
journal Science . "Chemical signaling is a
form of language," says Dr. Noam Sobel,
as quoted in The New York Times .
"Basically what we've found is the
chemo-signaling word for 'no' — or at
least 'not now.'"
