Monogynic Grief
Men feel monogynic grief when the woman they love dies.
If a man loves a woman and she dies, he will feel grief. And grieving men will feel that grief until they die.
If a man no longer loves a woman, he will not feel grief if she dies. Men stop loving a woman about 4 years after meeting a her.
The longer a man has been in love, the stronger his grief.
Men who have been in love for 1 year feel weaker grief than men who have been in love for 4 years.
Grieving men should avoid reminders of their dead women.
Men cannot help their dead women by remembering them. Men can only inflict more emotional pain on themselves by remembering. And the more grief that a man feels, the less he can do for his remaining family. Although it seems callous, the best thing for a grieving man and his family is to remove all reminders of a dead woman. If necessary, the family might need to move.
Monogynic grief causes frowning.
Grieving men will involuntarily frown when feeling grief - the corners of their mouths turn down for at least a second or two.
Monogynic grief can cause crying.
Grief can cause grieving men to cry because it releases suppressed crying. However, grieving men only cry if they are lonely. So not crying does not mean that a man does not feel grief.
