Guys like to act tough.  But put on an inspiring sports or war movie, and they turn into a puddle:  82% of Americans have CRIED during a movie, according to a new poll.  Including 91% of women and 71% of men.

People in the South are the most likely to cry during a movie, where 85% said they do it.  The Midwest was next at 83%, then the Northeast at 80%.  And people out west were the least likely to say they cry at movies, with just 75%.

One more weird stat from the survey:  2% of people said the question didn’t apply, because they don’t watch movies.
