>have a 4 year old kid who is finally able to sit through and understand movies>watch all the pixar/disney movies with her that i saw when i was a kid>can't help but cry at all the 'sad' scenes that i didn't even bat a lash at when i saw them as a kid myselffuck man, i even know that the sad scenes are temporary like when Sully says goodbye to Boo in Monsters Inc, but I can't help it. Especially if it plays on the parent/child dynamic in some way. I'm trying to bite my tongue to distract me from crying, but it never works. Anyone else struggle with this embarrassing shit? My wife and daughter don't even cry at those scenes, as they reassure me that I'm going to be okay as I roll my eyes at them and wait for the next scene.Never have kids, bros. It's too humbling of an experience.
My son is 4 and can't sit still for long enough to get through the studio intros without running off and breaking shit or trying to turn on the toaster without bread in it. I sort've wish liberals were having kids so that they'd be in school with him because I know he's going to terrorise kids once he's shipped off.
>>221333060your T drops significantly when you have kids otherwise youd just shout at them them when theyre being annoying
>>221333060>weak men like this are having children
>>221333060The best cure for this is to stop being such a fucking pussy.Don't get too engrossed in the movies. They're fucking popcorn flicks. Treat them as such
>>221333133try to make momma do more of the caretaking if youre worried about this (you should be cause its going to make ur wifes pussy dry up) the more caretaking time the lower it goesnatures brutal
>>221333118>I sort have wish liberalsA sweet, manmade grammar horrors beyond my comprehension!
>>221333060you're going to raise weak children if you model that behavior to them. sack up.
>>221334664Nah, it's good for children to learn that they don't need to repress their emotions.
>>221334664give me a break. I’m a big bearded metalhead guy with tattoos and this happens to me. I watched cars 3 and cried so hard I threw up on my recliner, had to ask my daughter to go get my klonopin.we see these movies in a different light when we’re grown ups.
>>221334858its not for boys. a boy with unregulated emotions will either get bullied & be a school shooter or get bullied & become transgender
>>221334895>cars 3bad bait.
>>221334895
>>221333060I'm 24 with no kids. I got drunk alone and watched Glengarry Glen Ross and then the original SpongeBob movie. I cried a lot both during the scene where S&P dry up in shell city and the end credits songs. I forgot I had watched the movie dozens and dozens of times as a child. I knew basically every line. I don't think I've ever cried at a movie prior to that. Hope this helpz
>>221334895It's kinda like your shitty beard, long hair, tattoos and bad taste in music can't disguise the fact that you're a massive vagina underneath it all, woah.
>>221333060You're just getting old anon. I suggest you kill yourself.
>>221333060dude wtf never cry in front of a woman
>>221333060I don't trust someone who doesn't cry during at least some movies. If they don't, it means they never developed empathy. There's nothing embarassing about it, but I'm concerned about your wife. Performative empathy vs actual. 'You'll be okay' vs actually feeling something. She is presumably at least 25, she should have empathy by now. Perhaps she needs to suffer.
>>221333060Limpdick, Low T thread alert!
>>221334895Top kek, this has to be (very funny) bait
>>221333060>Especially if it plays on the parent/child dynamic in some waywow its almost like these movies were made for the parents plot wise and for the kids with character and silliness wise.But maybe Nemo's message of not being a helicopter parent was actually meant for the kids themselves
>>221334895>I'm a big bearded metalhead guy with tattoos and this happens to me.>"I'm a performative male and this happens to me."And?If you want to convince me you're manly, don't tell me what you look like. That's shallow neurotypical shit. Tell me what the worst hurt you've ever been through was. Tell me about a time you did something that took courage, and why you did it. Tell me about the closest you've come to dying. Those are the things that make a man, not your reddit beard or bathroom scribbles.
>>221334895lmao
>>221336746>never cry in front of a womanpeople underestimate this important rule
>>221336990You are such a fucking faggot
>>221333060I remember crowds of kids not seeming fazed by Coco but all their parents were emotional wrecks. Things land differently when you’ve more life experience
>>221333144He said, bitterly, because nobody would fuck him
>>221333163Don’t think about art just stare and eat and think nothing
>>221337247This from a man with a cocksucking beard. Does it tickle your boyfriend's balls while you're blowing him?
>>221333060It’s perfectly normal to be more in tune with emotions as you get older
>>221336990>shallow neurotypical shitno disrespect my man, but it seems you are autistic and not functioning very highly. and possibly quite young. your interpretation and response to my post is a little baffling.
>>221337879Is this the best insult a performative male can come up with? Jesus. You even have to hide behind 'no disrespect' like you're scared of getting downvoted without a pretext.Man up.
>>221333060>used to find it funny when in shows like family guy or some shit an alcoholic would throw bottles in his room crying>do the exact same stuff now getting wasted and crying over mufasa death and other retarded nonsense>couldnt bring myself to shed a single tear at relatives funerals
>>221334895bait used to be believable
>>221334895>t: performative male
never watch raising arizona as a 40+ year old childless man who's only had fleeting but meaningful contact with some amazing kids who are now adults.
>>221338776>doesn't show up to funerals drunkgood man
>>221333060if you can't cure yourself of this weakness by the time he gets old enough to remember things then he's never going to respect you. i didn't see my father cry once throughout my childhood.
You know, I've also noticed that I'm a bit more emotionally pulled by television and film now in my 30's. I never cried watching anything since I was like 5 or 6, but now I get sad and might have a single tear sneak up on me. Felt jack shit in my 20's but I still enjoyed the movies.
>>221339138i got drunk on the after event
Why are there so many normies on 4chan these days
>>221339262/pol/ and /b/ niggers interfering too much with the outside world
>>221333060Parenting kinda resets your brain. Having nieces/nephews or mentees does too to a lesser extent. We get jaded and cynical as we get old but get to rediscover things while our children discover them. It rounds the edge off your politics too. You're not an overly-idealistic liberal moonbat or some libertarian asshole who doesn't care about the common good either. You want to preserve family traditions and have a stable safe society but you can also empathize with people who've fallen through the cracks. I've noticed a similar thing with religion. Decided to get confirmed as an adult and just doing little rituals and prayers feels amazing. I feel like my heart as softened up a bit. I deleted my /pol/ memes and feel more morally centered.
>>221333060>have a kid>immediately start counting the days till you can intoduce them to the electric Jew wtf is wrong with you OP
>>221333060>>221333118>faggot parents on 4chankys faggot what the fuck are you doing posting on this board
>>221333230>implying OP’s wife’s pussy has ever been wet
>>221333060Its scientifically proven that fathers have more estrogen than non fathers. Youre a fag if you get children.
>>221334895>big bearded metalhead guy with tattoosOh so a complete faggot then?
>>221336283If he represses emotions, he may well kill himself. Repression and dysregulation are both dysfunctional states.
>>221339367Our concrete angel :)
>>221339367>Decided to get confirmed as an adult and just doing little rituals and prayers feels amazing.You lost me there. I'm a metaphysical naturalist and that's just too silly. Might as well start throwing salt over your shoulder and observing superstitions, watch out! a black cat! I crossed the road to avoid it and now I FEEL much better. lol
>>221338976people actually bit lol
>>221336729>You're just getting old anon. I suggest you kill yourself.He has a 4 yo kid and and you want him to commit sudoku!
