Cancers and their mothers

What's the deal with Cancers and their moms, every description I read talks about this... Is it true— Cancer guys please opinions?? 🙂
We have Freudian problems, all of us suffer from Oedipus complex too. Further, we are waiting for women of all the other zodiac signs to come rescue us.

We're known for being real tight with our families and yeah gotta say the men are known for being "mama's boys." I'm a Cancer lady and I really don't dig Cancer men but that's me. They're devoted when they're in love but yeah they're whiny (more so than us ladies, who are just moody as hell and crazy generally speaking), they like to pose at being super manly to disguise their emotions & vulnerabilities and they need to and probably never will cut the apron strings.

And I agree with clueless Cancer that the men tend to bond closer to mom & the family. I'm actually not that close to my family. Then again my family is dysfunctional.

This is definitely not true for every cancer male. I presently can't stand my mother. Yes she was good to me growing up but I didn't live with her. If a girl were to try to mother me and nag me and or baby me in a relationship I would probably get annoyed, idk for sure. But I was primarily raised by an asshole Capricorn father so that's why.
Thank you all for your responses, BTW I never said there was something wrong about a guy being close to his mother I just read about it in every description about Cancer males and I was curious about your opinions....
My Cancer is close to his whole family and he and his mom are in contact pretty often, I love this about him, he pretends to be aggravated every time he has to talk to her when I am around but I know he loves his mom and his whole family, they are very close and that is very important to me since I am the same.
He is not a mama's boy by any means and he doesn't hate or can't stand his mom which IMO is the perfect balance 🙂

I love Cancers 🙂
My sister is a Cancer and my bf too, I have learned to embrace their moods and sensibility because in return I am lucky enough to enjoy their HUGE loving hearts.

I really don't like the Whinng mommas boy stereotype. I love my mom. I have my own opinions. If you ever think I'm whining well you shouldn't have given me a reason to b. :p

It's more of me being a reactionary person. But think what you want 🙂

My son is an amazing young man. I, his amazing mother.
Trust that he is his own almost 17 year old self. He didn't nurse overlong when wee and has always been so mellow and sweet.
I think it's terrific that he can swoop me up for a big bear hug after visits with his father or if I've had a brutal day. He's far too cool for a kiss on the cheek. Maybe when my cheek is lined.
I love my son very much. It is my hope that he never causes a lady undue pain. That he's a gentleman. Kind and true.
No apron strings necessary.
