In some cultures, men who cry when they are hurt have been regarded as weak and so in such men, they accumulate their pain and hurt with no way to express it and this just leads to further complications in their health like high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks etc simply because they were not allowed to freely express their hurt. You see such people and you admire their strength but unknown to you they are hurting inside and dying inside. Their pain ever growing and puffing up and one day it all explodes with maybe fatal consequences.

Crying when you are hurt does not make you less a man or weak. It is a way of expression for both man and woman. Some people have even be called Cry babies because they cry when they face pain and hurt but thesame people who lavish them with such names do same in hiding and in their closets.
We are humans and filled with emotions and feelings, sometimes these emotions will burst out in different ways and crying is a very common one as we know it. We are ruled by our emotions in every second of the day. So it is 100% okay to cry if that's the way to express what you feel or are going through and i believe, instead of anybody calling you names or laughing at you, a mature person will understand that what you need is a shoulder at that that time to cry on.
