helps her cure wounds in the heart and in mind,” says Ndaba. What is 
the psychology of a woman's tears? The veil of tears clouds our vision. 
We can't “really” see amidst the watery eyes. But what is the 
psychological mystery behind them? According to Julius Lutaakome, a 
psychologist with the national programme of mental health and part time 
lecturer at Nkumba University, the crying of a woman is not a weakness, 
but rather a sign and way of emotion. “It's a good thing for their 
emotional side,” Lutaakome says. “Society allows for woman to cry, but 
it would seem a weakness for the men to do so,” he says. Kajumba 
Mayanja, a clinical psychologist and lecturer at Makerere University 
Institute of Psychology, says the ‘work-home-role' conflict, is hard to 
handle without ever shedding a tear. “The pressure of being a mother, a 
wife and at the same time an employee, is not easy,” says Mayanja, “You 
are always under pressure to fulfil these roles.” He says women trying 
to fulfil these roles are affected negatively, especially if they are 
working among people who may not understand what they have to bear. 
“The work schedule may not be fair enough,” he says. “So she's at work, 
but also thinking about a sick baby or a nagging husband,” Mayanja 
says. He adds that in business matters, it's easy to get frustrated or 
angry when you work hard and your expectations aren't met. “We tend to 
be too instrumental in business and forget the emotional side,” he 
says. He says women tend to be empathetic, especially if they try to 
explain their tough situations to a person who may not understand. 
Mayanja, however, say out that the way women and men react to 
situations, reflects the different social upbringing of children. He 
says whereas boys are socially raised to be self reliant, girls are 
raised to be submissive and refer to others for help. “Men grow up 
knowing they have to fight battles on their own,” he says, “but women 
are raised to be submissive and call in an authority when faced with a 
hard condition.” He says a troubled woman cries if no person comes in 
to help her out. “If an authority does not come to help, they feel 
stuck, humiliated and then cry,” says Mayanja.
