Is Your Man Moody? - Women vs Men

Women vs. Men

Men are no less emotional than women. It is just that they are ‘not allowed’ to show it as much as women are allowed to. Kim Mathew, a stock breaker, says, “I don’t think that men are less emotional than women–it is just that they are not given a chance to show it. Even if they break their head, it is not acceptable for them too cry. I guess all these incidents add up and after some time they just burst it out.”

So the obvious question to society is that, why is a man not allowed to express his feelings without being laughed at?

Samantha, a homemaker says, “When I am moody, I am not afraid to express it. But my husband holds it in and then explodes. As he never discusses the reasons for his moodiness, it sometimes results in misunderstandings or a fight.”

Men from a tender age are taught that showing emotions is a sign of weakness. Emotional baggage for men comes out in spurts.
