2. Top tips on how to manage women who cry.

Tip A. Accept crying for what it is - crying.

Crying is just crying. It's a set of tears that well up in a woman's eyes and come rushing down her cheeks and face. It can be accompanied by a change of breathing or sobbing sounds. And that's it. It is just crying. Just like laughter is laughter. A frown is a frown. A cry is a cry. There's no need to complicate it and look for sinister reasons underneath it, or to feel it's something to be avoided at all costs. It's just crying. It's something that humans do. It's something that mentally healthy humans do. And it can be a good thing.

Tip B. Avoid dismissive comments.

Some phrases to avoid.
"You'll get over it".
"Oh, is that all - I thought it was something serious."
"There's nothing to worry about."
"It's not my fault you feel like that."
"Oh it's that time of the month again, is it?
"There's no need to be so emotional."
"You're too sensitive."
"How can you not know why you are crying?"

Tip C. Leave her alone.

If you have walked in on a woman crying alone, you might need to leave her to it. She may have chosen to cry in peace and quiet and you've just spoilt it for her. This can be embarrassing for both parties. Some women are very comfortable crying on their own. They don't always need a hug, or a shoulder to cry on. Sometimes that inhibits them. Sometimes they feel embarrassed crying with other people. You might need to leave her to it.

Tip D. Show understanding.

If, or when, she talks about what is happening show understanding. This doesn't mean firing her with more questions or "rationalising away" what she's said. It means simply stating back what she has conveyed to you. At work, understanding can sound like this, "It sounds like the accounting system is causing you a lot of grief". Or, "It sounds like the number of times you get interrupted in a meeting leaves you feeling frustrated because you can't get your point across." Or "So, you're shocked to find out your work isn't up to scratch because you've been trying so hard to please me."

These are just some of the many tips in the book. To get more tips and to buy your copy of "Why do women cry and what to do when they do" go here and follow the easy prompts: http://www.rachelgreen.com


3. Laugh your socks off.

Thanks to Rachel's Reflections reader, Tatyana (Tanya) Tamm, from the School of Medicine, Flinders University, for this joke.

A health worker, during the course of a Cue and Response Interview, asked a 104-year-old client: "And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?"
The woman simply replied, "No peer pressure."

If you have some clean jokes we can use, please send your contributions to
