Of course we should all have equal opportunity to express our feelings, just as we should have equal opportunities to become software engineers.
That said, I don't think it's true in general that men have a hard time stating (like this, pseudomously, in an interview) that they are hurt/offended.
And a brief look at comment-threads should illustrate that it's hardly easy for women to state such things in public. The power mild statements by women can have to bring out raging trolls with death and rape threats would be absurd if it wasn't such a sad indicator of how far we still have to go toward a free/equal society.
All that said, part of the structural repression of women tend to be repression of certain traits in men as well - limiting gender roles in society is in general not good for anyone.
I think Dar Williams puts it well in her song "When I was a boy":
I don't know, maybe everything is sexist. Maybe we should expect a society where men and women cry equally.
