    It feels like emotion shaming. “Boys don’t cry/big girls don’t cry.” Maybe that’s why there are so many suicides, which I also think suicide shaming the victim is wrong. Shame the society/circumstances that led up to it, you know?

      Moving past the joke of de-gendering a gendered colloquialism; yes I do agree with you on both of your points.
