A clip of a weeping transgender man has swept the internet, after he cried while saying how much harder it was to strike up meaningful friendships as a man than it had been as a woman.
James Barnes, who was born female but transitioned to male eight years ago, works as a life coach to help others going through life changes. He recently opened up about the challenges he's faced since becoming a man - especially loneliness.
Breaking down in tears, Barnes said: 'No one told me how lonely being a man is.
'I had closer friendships with random women I met in the bathroom at clubs before I transitioned because of how open women are, than I've had in my 8 years of transitioning because women are just so much more vulnerable and deep than men.
'We knew what depth felt like before we transitioned, we knew what it felt like to have people want to hug us, and have people want to talk to us, and have a community.
'And then you transition and you're just a guy walking down the street that people cross the street so they're not near you. And friendships are so much harder to build, and people are colder.'
Barnes, who is also a motivational speaker said while holding back his tears, 'I also now understand why the suicide rate is so much higher with men, because this s**t is lonely.
'I am an emotionally matured man, I know how to build friendships, and it's still really really hard.'

Did she have the addadictome operation?
Yep never seen a pity party for someone who kept making bad decisions.
James go tuck yourself.
No lesbian wants to date a man pretending to be a woman and no straight woman wants to date a woman pretending to be a man. And vice versa for gay and straight men.
People desire relationships with men and women, not some in-between fourth rate mentally confused person.
"Chaz" Bono found that out the hard way. She had a pretty cute girlfriend, before she thought that being a "man" would be an improvement. Well, the girlfriend didn't stick around, and now "Chaz" is complaining that "he" can't get any woman to date "him".
Trans people by their very nature are seeking affirmation about their choice. And when they can’t get it, they go to pieces.
cant change the dna no matter how you change the outside, your still a women!!!
