Supressed

Supressed: to keep in or repress (verb)

This is the meaning of the word supressed according to dictionary.com. I saw this word when I was reading the article “A Master’s Degree in Masculiny” in English class on Thursday, September 27th, 2018. The sentence was in the article as a response to the question of “What does it mean to be a real man?” The response said “It means supressing any kind of weakness” I understand what that means because I see many people hold back their true feelings because they think that they might be seen as weak or vulnerable. They hide and hold back any vulnerabilities to always appear strong.
