Is more to do with toxic masculinity.
Men are taught to show no emotions or not cry at times.
it’s men nature to show less fragility.
not discrediting the nature of that: it‘s good for men to act disciplined at times; is what defines masculinity; however is not necessary to discredit a persons emotions or affections.
Its mostly a western thing, its different back home or in other countries like the Middle East or IndiaThere‘s a lot stigma that surrounds a men: who gives affection to a another man .
people even shame a man who cry’s.
being a man is rough

I find that ironic: cause the west are more tolerant for same-sex marriages: while the same countries/ region you’ve mentioned are not.
The west is accepting of gay men but restrictive towards straight white men in some ways, opposite in other countries.I find that ironic: cause the west are more tolerant for same-sex marriages: while the same countries/ region you’ve mentioned are not.
Funny thing is a lot of homosexual acceptance in straight white men is driven by fear of being called gay.
Nowadays if you are against khanis, people will say you're a self hating homo and use it as a gotcha. I've seen white men try to out-liberal other white men when it comes to khanis so they can say they're secure in their sexuality.

In this insane world, a man who can cry and a woman who can express anger are sane
I mean as a woman nothing wrong with it for me. But if I was a dude:
Its very sus. The only acceptable time is when you're graduating. There is no other time a man should give another man flowers.

Give your friend a plant instead.
Plants are different to flowers. We’re talking about bouquet flowers, which are only used in life-events or shukaansi.
I would only accept flowers from a male friend if I was graduating, having a child or at my funeral.
im sry but thats gayIs also wrong for a man to hold hands:
why is it still taboo for men to hold hands?
While male friends holding hands is stigmatised in the UK, in India it’s normal. Photographer Vincent Dolman captured men of every age on the streets of India, holding hands.i-d.vice.com
shit ain’t fair
they were gayI saw guys walking holding hands when I visited Somalia 4 years ago, was kinda shocked
I doubt anyone would be doing anything gay in public there, so who knows, maybe it's a cultural thing that I, as a Westerner Somali didn't understand.
true but still they were gay
