Well if he’s frorm the channel island of Jersey, does that make him a Jersey Girl? You know, it sounds like it doesn’t matter what’s going on around him or on the screen, he just LIKES to cry. And even if he was a chick, that wouldn’t make him a big softie. It would make him mentally unstable. But hey, he’s British. Sometimes when a British actor comes out as gay, my reaction is usually “wow, really? it’s always hard to tell if he’s GAY, or just British.”

Yessir, this is where 50 years of Affirmative Action (almost 100 if you count from the advent of Women’s Suffrage) have taken us.

I thought it was supposed to be “Superman,” not “Pussyboy.”

Maybe he is menstruating.

Maybe he should be called “Obamaman.”

Maybe he saw his taxes for Obamacare.

Maybe he is a transsexual with feelings.

Maybe he is “Oprahman!!!”

Maybe he saw the pathetic Republican candidates for President for 2016 and realized that Hillary may become President.

Maybe he realized that Joe Biden is one heartbeat away from becoming President.

Hee-hee. He’s so handsome…too bad he’s so girly. One can’t even perve on a dishy dude anymore in 2013!

I cry when I think of what is happening to USA and what the Moooooslims are getting away with.

At the end of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” Magenta screams that she has grown weary of this planet. I know how she feels!

A great male actor who acts in dramas needs to be able to cry from time to time. And method acting, in which the actor draws on his personal experiences, is one of the more effective ways to express the emotion of grief. Great actors, however, do not “act out” those strong emotions at every opportunity, nor do they discuss it publicly, except, perhaps in acting classes. On the contrary, it is rarety of the expression of the emotion that renders it so powerful.

There are two movies that come to mind which feature a powerful scene near the end of the movie in which the actors are called upon to cry: “Tunes of Glory” with Alec Guiness and “Godfather III” with Al Pacino. Neither character played is a “girly-man” by any stretch, and the crying that happens is natural part of the character development. Each actor is a disciplined professional. There is a time and place for crying.

First up, “Tunes of Glory.” This needs a little set-up, but I can assure you that this movie is a very effective drama even though you may already know what’s going to happen. Much of movie concerns a conlict arising between Lieutenant Colonel Basil Barrow (John Mills) and Major Jock Sinclair (Alec Guinness) concerning authority and leadership. When Barrow realizes that his authority will never be accepted, Barrow shoots himself in the head. With the colonel’s death, Sinclair realises he is to blame. He calls the officers to a meeting.

Would someone please tell me what the heck is up with these make hollyweird actors. They seem to want to be a bunch of crybaby wussies. Note to Me Cavill we don’t give a big stinking bowl of crap about you crying. Real men don’t emote all the time and real women want to be the woman in a relationship. They’d rather have babies a not date them. I guess Snyder should’ve gotten Carano to play Superman. She seems to be more of a man than her boyfriend.

He’s a Brit and like most British men, he has been wussified and downgraded to a girly man, courtesy of progressive British educational system.

I’d cry too if I had to try and find a PC way to sell “Truth, Justice, and the American Way” to an international audience.

I heard a lot of of people were like him in that they cried when seeing Superman – tears of boredom.

I just don’t understand why media love to exagerate what actors say, you are just so ridiculous.
And for people that writes comments, it would be better that you look for those interviews and see that this is a huge exgeration(specially the person who wrote this article)

I’m appalled by the way people dismiss male emotions. If men were more in tune with their emotions and possibly learned to understand such emotions instead of worrying who is the bigger “macho” maybe things would be different!! Like really, who cares if Henry Cavill wants people to know that he is genuinely a nice guy and in touch with his emotions! Now that is a REAL MAN! A man who is tough enough to admit to crying! A “Pussyman” (as someone above put it) is someone who cannot admit when he is down, who would rather dismiss true emotion! I’d pick Henry’s crying any day over a tough guy who wouldn’t give a rat’s ass about emotions!
