This question's probably a bit controversial in a sense. 

I feel crying is both. 

Weakness

Someone who cries for no solid purpose. Taco was taken away (what lol?), and you are devastated. You start to cry, even though had a taco already, and someone didn't get a taco to eat for lunch. 

Very much so a cry of absolute weakness, for there was no reason to cry in the first place...more for selfish reasons as well.

There are many times in movies where there is the macho guy, and then there is the "weakling". The weakling gets a cut on the hand, and starts to cry profusely. The macho guy calls him weak and pathetic for crying over a small cut. 

First off, people have different pain tolerances. Maybe the weakling just has such a low pain tolerance that it's not even funny. (However, movies don't portray the specifics all too often, so the weakling would just be a...weakling. Some movies here and there show past events in where the weakling became one, like a skin disease or traumatic event, but then again, there are some that don't). 
Secondly, the macho man is looking at things with a different P.O.V. He's the macho man, fit to take a few dozen scars and not cry about it.

Another example is basically standards of today. You don't see much people cry these days, especially since many people are self-conscious and do not want others to see them in a vulnerable state. This has happened so much that society views crying especially in public) as a sign of weakness. It's just unusual,especially for many other people, to see others cry, since it is such a habit to not see anyone crying. I guess it's like the Native Americans saw white people as unusual as they had not seen them very much in their daily lives, much less seen them at all actually.

Strength
However, there comes emotion as well. Crying is very much a part of emotion, especially in sadness. In sadness, crying usually is not a sign of weakness (except in "false sadness", like the taco guy example). Say a family member dies. You start to cry. Is that a sign of weakness? No, that family member was a part of your daily life, and you loved him/her dearly. Crying is just a way of expressing that, without words. 

In the end, crying is a sign of both. To many, crying is a lot more of a weakness than a strength, or maybe that's because they have not been a part of a time where crying showed strength.

What do you people think?

Well in my opinion it depends on the  reason as I think you stated earlier . If you are crying because you have bottled up emotions and need to get them out then I guess it ok but not really showing you are strong . But if you cry because of every little thing or disadvantage ... mishaps , mistakes then you will be portrayed as being weak . I don't cry simply because I have a mental issue with believing that it is not manly . But that might not be true

depends on the situation.
"Real men do not cry or ever show emotion."
I used to think that was so.
Reality???
Men do shed tears when they have them.
Three cheers to you for having some left to shed.
I have none left anymore.
Too much and too many hard times.
Life gets interesting when you have nothing left.
Shed the tears while you have the chance.
No one cares while you are young.
Once you get to my age???
Different story.
Be a Kid as often as you can for now.
Being a Man Sucks.
You have no tears left to shed. (Then people think your Heartless.)
Life is "tuff".
Get used to it.
Good Luck.
Peace.

Crying can be either. It needs to be used rarely. I try not to cry, because I was told not to so many times. But there are a few times I can't help but let the waterworks out.

I can't see it as a strength at all. I usually try hard not to cry, but in some instances it's just impossible to resist.

Holding back emotion is only strength if you are trying to make someone feel secure.
In any other instance its weakness because you are too insecure to act as you feel.

I agree with thenumberone.

I'm old enough now to realize the truth of it. I freely admit that I have cried like a baby at times. Sometimes it is the best thing for you. I know I feel better after crying. It lets the emotion out of your body and I honestly feel better after it. I'm not proud of crying or feel "manly" but I think everyone should cry every once in a while.

Depends on what your crying about and what gender you are. If your a guy crying over a girl that's weakness.

You can't fairly judge a crying person unless you know them. Maybe that taco guy gets regularly bullied or abused and needed an outlet to let his emotions out. Maybe the person hurt is crying in shock because they are rarely hurt. 
I don't really see crying as a bad thing. There's just so many big tough guys in media that are 'cool' that it's become society's perfect picture of manliness.
Maybe this is just me being girly, but bottling up emotions is unhealthy. Some people just choose to let go with crying, that's all.
I feel that while people view it as weakness, I just feel it's somewhere in the middle.

To me, crying is both a sign of weakness and strength.

If someone was crying for a small cut, minor mistake, didn't get what they want, or because they are not allowed to have something, then that is a sign of weakness to me. But if someone was crying because they lost something important to them or they lost someone who they cared about so much, then that is a sign of strength to me.

I say that crying is a sign of strength depending on who you are. If you are one of those boys who crys at everything, then no, but one of those guys who rarely cries, then I say when you do cry it is strength.

Well a lot of people think it's a sign of weakness but those people are in complete denile. Many people cry and laugh and when a woman or man especially say I don't cry .. usually means of course they have cried in the past but they may have not cried in a while.. but let me tell you one day your going to look back at saying that and be like wow.. she was right.. I did cry again. I think it is a sign of strength and yes it can be somewhat of weakness but only because it can hurt you more to cry than be happy. It strengthens you though if you stand tall and close to what you believe in after you cry. I don't like it when people say all crying is .. is weakness. They are wrong and very wrong. Crying is a great sign of goodness that your trying to feel better about something even though your hurting horribly. A lot of people down rate and over rate it and they are just wrong. You have to keep trying and standing tall because if you don't your going to fall and never get back up. I have learned this over several years of things that have happened to me. I have cried so much in my life.. the last time I cried would of been a couple of weeks ago when I got upset about something that happened in chat which isn't a good reason.. but I felt bad and was made felt bad by a bunch of users. All I can do is try and hope for good. Some say strength is strength and weakness is weakness but they are wrong about that to. Crying is strength and weakness in awe and no matter how much somebody down pulls you makes you feel like your worthless or screams at you for nothing.. you have to try and feel better even if it makes you feel worse and you cry even more. I had a friend once that gave up her own life because she was made fun of for crying and called weak because of it. She had been being bullied for a long while and all she ever did was cry.. and stressed about so much that this happened and now shes gone.. there is nothing that I can do and I can't bring her back.. I talked with her a lot told her I am here for her and told her how much I cared for her and not to do what she was going to do because she is worth so much more. So many people say that weakness is weakness and strength is strength and they are wrong very wrong at that. I think that crying is sign of both. Sterength for heart and weakness for growth and learning. People disgust me because of what they did to my friend and made her feel so bad about crying so much due to the fact of them that she ended her own life. I will never forget that these bullies were cyber bullies as well. They said horrible things to her and knew that they could get away with it. I am posting this long post about crying because crying is a huge sign of I need help or I need somebody to be there for me.. others say oh your just weak for crying so much. Sometimes I wish they could feel the pain that they put on my friend and see how it made her feel. I still cry because I miss her so very much and there is nothing I can do now because she is gone.. I did talk with her when she was still here I told her how much I loved her and how much I cared for her and that crying is a good thing and your strong.. but she didn't listen. I hope this post can touch somebodys heart because this is what this world has become and this is what these people did to my friend. She told me she was doing it because she couldn't stop crying and after she would be painless. I feel horrible I wish I could of helped her. All I can do now is hope for better things to happen in the future and people to realize that this is serious and it's a good thing to cry most of the time because your healing.

Crying is just a part of being human. Those who cry "more" are emotional, but I don't see it as a weakness. Besides, not crying/showing your emotion transforms you into a time bomb, and your eventual explosion will be dangerous for everyone

I believe that if there is a reason to cry, you go ahead and cry, but I believe that crying is a weakness because it means that you are letting your emotions get the best of you.

I would say that crying is both a weakness and a strength.

When crying for no reason, or over something extremely simple, it can be seen as a weakness. An example would be: Crying over the fact that your parents got you a WHITE iPhone instead of a BLACK one. In this case, it is something that truly DOES NOT MATTER. If you consistently cry over something like this, maybe there is something else going on. I would start watching for signs of depression.

On the other hand, if for a reason, crying can very much be a strength. When you cry, it naturally helps you feel better. It can relieve the pressure of the situation on your mind, and afterwards makes it easier to cope with the problem.

Well crying can be a weakness if you cry over every little thing.

How I use crying is to let my body and mind clear out all mixed emotions.  I know if I am going through a rough time and can't think through things I go into my room and let it all out.  After a while my brain cools off and I can work through my troubles.  Just this week I thought all my assistance even medical insurance was cut off from me.  No one wanted to help me think through it and I became overwhelmed.  So I did quite a lot of crying but by next morning I was able to work through everything and get myself back. 

When I was young I was told to never show your emotions and stand tall.  What that did was let me be walked all over.  2 months ago I saw a therapist and she told me to let my emotions show and since I've done that I've begone to take control over my life and not let people walk over me!

Emotions are part of being human.  They let us show how we feel and what we need.  If you bottle up you can't communicate on what you need, think, or feel.  So let those emotions come through and take control of your life!

Is a sign of strength. I think it means you care. Well I don't cry that much. Even if it a sad movie. Ya I'm a bad person.
