See, anytime I think "manpain" I think of the Home Improvement episode where Tim pulled his groin lifting a trunk, blamed Jill and got ice poured down his pants as a result while she used the term to make fun of him. Not an instance where a dude is legit upset and cries over something. And like you, I prefer the term "wangst". Come on, it even SOUNDS better when you're describing whiny basket cases who make other people's pain all about them or use their crappy lives as an excuse to whine all the time.
