Why when a male celebrity shows emotions it is viewed as being strong but when a normal guy shows emotion we are viewed as weak?

Wealth and fame help
Tell that you’re an American without telling me that you are an American.
When you’re rich and influential, a lot of people tend to agree with you and back you up in whatever you do.
My experience with several men is that when showing emotion it’s being used to deflect or manipulate instead of taking accountability. That being said, I see a lot of this portrayed in the media as well.
Do you have a specific context or example you can share?
The sliding scale attraction chart… also called the scatter graph of when being self confident only works when on the correct side of the dividing line, percentage of rejection and lack of being approached will clearly tell you where you sit on the scatter graph of complete dating fairness..
Women like strong men who are vulnerable only with them.
Humans were never meant to view screens. The brain doesn’t properly process these events as not happening to it.
Whatever device they are watching the celebrity on tricks their brain into thinking the celebrity is being intimately vulnerable only with them and it scratches that want that they have.
It’s viewed as weak for both. We just performatively support the celebrity due to cultural pressure and hero worship.
It really depends on the context under all the fame, recognition, support, wealth, etc, but I don’t get it either. I welcome anybody (that I can tolerate on a base level) to express whatever emotions they feel with me. I want them to know I’m a safe person who won’t judge, so I’ve never really understood the whole “Yeah, you can cry in front of me” leading to “Eww, gross, wtf is wrong with you, man up.” I actually end up feeling very honored if someone is vulnerable with me, man or woman.
Because no one is being paid to lie about how silly you look when you’re emotional.
Male celebrities are hot. “Oh but what about X?” X has millions so he’s hot. Where do you think all the old assholes came from? They were hot shit when they were young, then when people stopped giving them passes for being hot, they’re wondering why the world is so much worse.
I wouldn‘t generalize. It really depends on the context, the reasons why you show emotions, the trigger, the intent, the socialization, etc.
Because the celebrity is important. Normal guys are held to societal male standards.
You’re not.
Because your friends and family are rude and you deserve people around you that you can be yourself with.
