Question

(but sexually open)

Answer 1

coz everyone is trying hard to be cool.

Answer 2

Good question maybe the media,  men think its not * manly* or some other c**p kinda sad :(

Answer 3

Because opening up emotionally is extremely risky in relationships, work, etc.  I have found sometimes when I open up to people, they then push me away and it's as if we were never good friends to begin with.  Also, I think when you express yourself, and show your weaknesses, people sometimes will then use that against you.  

People close up emotionally to, in a way protect themselves.
