Neither. Tears are a liquid secretion that lubricate the eyes.

Men do not show tears and so I was used to show never tears whatever might happen. The last time I showed tears I was a little boy. Therefore you will never see tears in my eyes.

It's a sign of powerful emotions

Neither, they're a sign of sadness, or something in the eye. ; )

They can be both. It depends upon why the individual is crying. As a man I feel comfortable enough to cry if the situation compels me to do so. It's not a matter of thinking, but feeling. I've cried when my buddies have been killed in combat and by the words that have been said to me by children. There's nothing wrong with being a compassionate human being. On the other hand, if tears are for yourself and not another, they may be a sign of weakness.

its probably a sign of sadness, stress, happiness, lack of sleep, could be a lot of things...

Tears makes our heart lighter and then it gives us strength to look for other alternative in our life.

Usually a sign somebody is standing on my back in their stiletto heels again!
-
Tears can be signs of many things!

I think they are a sign of strength. There are also tears of joy.

tears of sadness-tears of gladness--a little gift from above - to help us understand life,love. So neither!

both

If they're my tears, they're either a sign of very deep emotions that I've uncharacteristically let slip to the surface, or... well, likely some horrid type of physical pain, although I haven't hurt myself badly enough to cause tears in a few years now. I think, given your question specifically, they're a sign of strength, because they act as a signifier that a person is capable of experiencing very strong emotions, which in turn are often good motivators.

they are both a weakness and a strength. they can be a weakness because it can be a sign your mental or emotional barriers are wearing thin. but it can be strong too, showing how much passion you have for something
