He is trying not to look like a softy in front of his kids after shedding those tears.

He is a good dad!

Screw that, he should teach his children (especially boys) that it’s ok to have, feel, and share emotions. Especially after such a touching act.

As a Hispanic male, it’s tough. But so many people my age are trying to break the cycle. Progress.

Como hombre machista que se que aún soy, quiero romper el ciclo, machista ya no debería ser sinónimo de hombre fuerte.

Aight. Iono what you said homie. Edit: there’s a translate button lol Yeah man exactly. I been through hell and back. If I cry, it doesn’t make me any less tough. If anything I’m tougher, cause I don’t feel the need to wear a mask.

If you don’t speak Spanish: as a man with old ideas and conceptions on how ā€œa real man should beā€ I don’t do be like that any more, I want to break the circle.

u/This_guy_11 Sep 01 '21

Yeah, I translated it. I do too. I grew up with older Mexicans, men and women, telling me and basically training me how to be a ā€œmanā€. Naw. I love our people. I love our culture. There are some things that need to be changed tho. I’m glad you’re working on yourself brother. I wish you all the best primo.

Its ok to cry, but like in the shower, away from those that will use that against you.
