Reply To: I’m a trans woman now, why does that make me cry so much?

Hi Lauren. It has often been recorded that once transition start emotion and crying seems to be a trait often said as a result of hormones. The question I ask is were  you emotional and cry before? These are emotions that tend to be stymied in the male where emotions are shown in anger, rage and crying is definitely not seen as male. Women are often seen crying and show there emotions, rallying round each other and hugging. Is it more that as a female you are now able to allow those emotions to come out as you can see it is a natural reaction for women?
