As a society, we expect men and women to act or behave certain ways. Men are expected act manly all the time. It is said that crying is feminine, and that if men show any sign of weakness then they don't conform to the norm. However, it's more normal for women to cry because they're viewed as 'weaker.' Women are more recognized to stay at home, whereas men go out and do all the dirty work, and make the money for the household.
