In today's news it's all about "the cry". Did Hillary Clinton win New Hampshire because of her emotional reveal on Monday? Do a women's tears soften the heart or is it viewed as just another tactic to get what we want?
Crying does make you appear more sensitive but if used too often that effect wears off.very quickly. When women use this indirect method of speech with other women there is usually not a problem - women are by nature more sensitive to picking up on the real meaning. It can, however be disastrous when used on men. They like the more direct approach without emotions getting in the way of rational thinking.
When I was at the gym yesterday the Hillary cry came up. The men I talked to didn't buy into it at all, in fact it was a real turnoff for them. They all agreed they would never vote for someone who's emotions got in the way of doing the job. Now, I'm not sure I buy into that. There is nothing wrong with heart. In fact if there was more it around, perhaps this world would be a better place for all of us.
