[edit]

The rock band Tool should've been mentioned. At least in the "see also"-part. They claim they chose their name because they wanted their music to be a tool in crying as a way to evolve as a human. They have several referances to lachrymololgy.


what are these other cultures where men are more acce[ted for crying than women


>> They are filled with hormones, and it now believed tears are a method of expelling excess hormones from the body.

I have softened this down because as far as I know it is no more than a conjecture suggested by William Frey's research, the leap to a factoid was made by the trivia culture. Femto 14:32, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Removed the disambiguation because it only needs to be used if there is a risk of confusion between topics. It is reasonably clear that a page named tears is about crying, not about "two or more lacerations". See Wikipedia:Disambiguation. It would be tear that could be made a disambiguation page, but the verb to tear will never have its own encyclopedia entry, and there's no risk of confusion with laceration apart from the synonymous dictionary definition.
