“…There is evidence that expectations likely will differ, as researchers have found different expectations for emotionality in males and females (see, e.g., Broverman, Vogel, Broverman, Clarkson, & Rosenkrantz, 1972). Earlier researchers generally found that crying from females was seen as more acceptable (see, e.g., Cretser, Lombardo, Lombardo, & Mathis, 1982), although there is recent research to suggest that perceptions of male criers may be changing (Labott, Martin, Eason, & Berkey, 1991; for a review see Warner & Shields, 2007). In any case, researchers should not assume that results will be the same for both genders.…”
