'Handsome weeping boys' of Japan help wipe tears
Offices in Japan can hire 'handsome weeping boys' who watch sad movies with the staff and later wipe away their tears. The service, known as 'Ikemeso Danshi',​ aims to hold crying workshops to expose the vulnerability of employees in order to help them bond together. Interestingly, other companies in Tokyo also provide cuddling sessions and rent-a-friend services.
