Why is it that crying in front of others is seen as a weakness?

I really don't understand. It's something all humans do, yet we tell others that it's a shameful or weak thing to do it. Ironically, most of the strongest people I've ever know I have seen cry at least once.

Expressing our emotions is a powerful and cleansing thing to do. Don't listen to people that say it's weak, its strength to be true to our feelings.
