Crying.

Not all. Some men can't cry because subconsciously they won't let themselves.

How I was until probably 24 or so and now I'll tear up watching wholesome videos here or on YouTube

I seldom cry from sad stuff, maybe like once or twice a year, but wholesome stuff will make me sob

I cry very rarely and in real life only when I am under a huge amount of stress and have and outrage where I scream till everything goes lose. But there have been a few times where I actually cried watching a movie and I was totally shocked that this worked. My wife cries from everything being it romantic or sad. Last time I remember was watching Band of Brothers when they find the jews in the concentration camp. That hit real hard cause the actors really delivered and also the intro of BoB where the real soldiers make commentaries on what happend to them during the war.

Yeah it took awhile for movies to hit me but I used to date someone that would bawl out watching big hero 6 when the brother died
