There is definitely a 'greener grass' effect happening here, but my perception of women from media and people I know is that they experience emotion and interpersonal connection in a way that feels entirely closed off to me. I've read accounts of trans women describing whole new worlds of emotion during transition, either by way of estrogen/HRT or self acceptance, and I want that.

I can confirm that anecdotally. Do you find you feel emotionally closed off or deadened? It's cool to be able to actually cry, or be super effusive, or stuff like that. It's troublesome for me because I have the emotional regulation of a five year old but I wouldn't change it.

I think desiring this for yourself is valid, honestly. Besides, what cisgender man looks at conceptions of women's emotions and goes, "god I wish that were me omori-miserable " right?? That's not a very cisgender sentiment imo :)

Oh yeah also, cis men don't grass-is-greener about being a woman, soz.
