Popular singer, Simi opens up on why she find it beautiful when men cry as she encourages men to be more expressive and frank about their emotions.
In a recent interview on the 90’s Baby Show, she shared that it brings her joy to see men embrace their emotional sides and vulnerability, rather than suppressing their feelings.
Simi noted that she finds it beautiful when men dare to be vulnerable and authentic, rather than hiding behind a tough facade.
She said:
“I find it beautiful when men cry because I’m surrounded by many men who feel they have to be macho or strong all the time.
“When you see men and women going through the same pain, the man often says, ‘I have to be strong for my wife or kids.’ I think that’s okay, but I don’t think strength means not being vulnerable or crying.
“I like it when men cry because it means that you feel safe with who you are with, you can be vulnerable, and you can let go. I have seen African men act like they are the warrior, protector, and provider. But if it’s not coming out in your tears, it’s going inside your heart, and one day you are just going to explode.”
