"Be a man." "Crying men are weak." "Tough it out." Many men are often confronted with phrases like these in their daily lives. In society and especially in many cultures, showing emotions is seen as a sign of weakness in men. How did it get to that? And what can we do to change this stigma? 

In the next episode of our Let's Talk About Series, a weekly chat with Dai and Cathy on random topics, our hosts discuss traditional masculine norms and share their views on crying men. 

What's your perspective? How can we challenge the status quo for men and boys and counter these stereotypes? Comment below!
