* ''ComicBook/{{Empowered}}'' strongly advises up-and-coming superheroines to avoid crying when BoundAndGagged. There is good reason for this: if your mouth is tightly taped or gagged, the mucous buildup in your nose can leave you unable to breathe. [[DamselInDistress Ask her how she knows this]].
* In ''ComicBook/{{Preacher}}'', Jessie Custer as a child swore never to cry again after Jodie called him a "fucking little crybaby" when Jodie shot his father right in front of Jessie. At the very end of the series, Jessie cries as he begs Tulip to give their relationship one more chance as she is about to leave him. The tears more than anything convince Tulip that he means it.
* In the last volume of Neil Gaiman's ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' [[spoiler: during Morpheus' funeral]], the witch Thessaly reminisces on her past relationship with the king of Dreams and mentions that she swore never to cry for him, with tears streaming down her cheeks.

* ''WesternAnimation/HappyMonsterBand'': In "Even Monsters Cry Sometimes", Frred avoids an utter urge to cry, due to his father getting a flat tyre, and being unable to attend the concert. The other band members notice this and tell him it's okay to cry - the lesson being taught by the episode - and sure enough, that's exactly what he does.

* In ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'', there are moments throughout the series where Ash will lower his head so the brim of his hat hides his eyes. This is a sure sign that he is trying to avoiding letting others see him cry. A common time for this is when releasing Pokémon.
