EP61 - When is crying ok? | Ben Franklin - “We hold these truths to be self-evident.”

Let's get into crying. Part of the anti-masculine movement is to promote more emotion from men. Is that a good thing? What does a man look like who does cry often? Should you, as a man, allow yourself displays of crying? Does a lack of crying show a man as uncaring? R&B also gets into self-evident truths, such as what Ben Franklin wrote in the Declaration of Independence. Look out for the following episode about truth and the nine veils. ------ Subscribe to our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@randbtalks Check us out on Instagram: https://instagram.com/randbtalks?igshid=MmIzYWVlNDQ5Yg== Check us out on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100095476576481&mibextid=LQQJ4d ------ For citation and reference: Leo Newhouse, LICSW - March 1, 2021 - Is Crying Good for You? https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/is-crying-good-for-you-2021030122020 Susan Krauss Whitbourne PhD, ABPP - August 13, 2019 - Is a Good Cry Really Good for You? https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/fulfillment-at-any-age/201908/is-a-good-cry-really-good-for-you Tina Gilbertson LPC - June 16, 2014 - Is Crying Good for You?
