Well Gab's it's a myth isn't it so the roots may be virtualy
untraceable.  However my opinion is that boys do indeed cry, and those
fathers that utter this myth when faced with crying sons, do their
kids no favours really.

Happines, try cracking a joke in front of your friends.  I assume that
similar to myself in this age if 'puters and interweb thingy you have
freinds from all over the place?  Try the joke and let me know how
much differance there is between the smiles and laughs.

I was watching something on TV at sometime within the last two perhaps
three years, and this very occourance happend, what struck me then was
the way that a smile on the face of a human seemed to be reconised as
a sign of happines, or maybe friendship, no matter what the
nationality of the face it belongs to.
