..I think it depends on the individual..everyone has emotions and it's much easier for a male to openly display them than it used to be...in my parent's generation, I think a man would feel that he had to be the 'strong' one and perhaps not always show what he felt or show his emotions and maybe a woman wouldn't have felt comfortable if he did..?...I'm not sure that either gender are more or less emotional than the other one but maybe they sometimes deal with their emotions differently..I think it's better and healthier in general to be 'emotional' and not hold things ...it's just a better balance I think...

..EDIT:..I always personally think that 'emotional ' people tend to be more relaxed and happier once they've let their emotions out but it does depend on the person...
