Tears of victory is forsure the most accepted/proudest example. But I think even crying in defeat is socially acceptable especially if the game was "good" or the the athletes performed "righteously."
Interesting 🤔 A lot of hazy boundaries for guys to navigate. Think how many unspoken rules we all live by every day—most likely below our conscious awareness. Kind of like middle school never ended.

Sports is another one of those interesting forays into acceptable male emotion.
Great point! Perfect example of the way co text frames meaning. Tears of victory. Probably not ok if you lose. (?)
