Popular Nigerian singer Simi has revealed she finds it appealing when men show their vulnerabilities.
According to the singer, it shows that they are human.
Simi added that she derives joy from seeing men embrace their emotions.
Speaking in an interview on the 90’s Baby Show, the singer confessed that she finds it beautiful when a man taps into his vulnerable side instead of bottling his feelings up.
“I find it beautiful when men cry because I’m surrounded by many men who feel they have to be macho or strong all the time.
“When you see men and women going through the same pain, the man often says, ‘I have to be strong for my wife or kids.’ I think that’s okay, but I don’t think strength means not being vulnerable or crying.
“I like it when men cry because it means that you feel safe with who you are with, you can be vulnerable, and you can let go. I have seen African men act like they are the warrior, protector, and provider. But if it’s not coming out in your tears, it’s going inside your heart, and one day you are just going to explode,” she explained.
