45 Things That Are Socially Acceptable For 1 Gender Only

My sons are fantastic with kids. There are a lot of littles in our life and they run and play with them and the kids adore my boys (late teens/early 20's). It makes me sad to think people would look down on them for it. They're going to be great fathers someday because they've had good relationships with the littles in their lives.

>Being angry/screaming When a man gets angry, people assume that someone has wronged him. When a woman gets angry, people call her hysterical. >Being sad/crying When a woman cries, people sympathise with her. When a man cries, he is treated as a weirdo or a wimp.

Sleeping around women are typically shamed for it but men are seen as lads for it.

Age! Men can age and still be desirable but a woman needs to try everything she can to stay looking 20 yrs. old. Which is impossible by the way.

Smiling at children. I'm a Dad, if a baby smiles at me I'll automatically smile back, and then inevitably get a glare from the parent because they think I'm some kind of creep (no, I just miss having small children!). My wife does it, it usually leads to a conversation about their children.

Crying in public. Women are seen as emotional while men are seen as weak. But let's be real, we all need a good cry sometimes.

In a non-sexual way, loving children. Women can always say out loud how much they love children and being around children. A guy does it and it's time to grill him about what he means. I saw a comedian (I think Phil Hanley...) doing some crowd work and asked this woman what she did. "I'm a teacher." "Oh, cool. What grade/age?" "Middle school. I like them younger." "Nice. You know, a guy could never say that. There would be some serious issues with that.".

Forget public, I cried very briefly in front of an older woman in my family last year while discussing my concerns for the safety of some children in my family I care about, and recently found out she and other women in my family labeled me as “emotionally unstable” because of it and had discussed my crying as if I had lost my mind.

Ladies, if a man cries in front of you, it does not mean he is crazy or unstable. Sometimes things are just sad.
