@kmakm - one of my buddies who sadly has mets from prostate cancer is on hormone tablets (not sure which one) and he has become VERY emotional - he cries readily and says that he is now in touch with his 'female side' much more than ever before - so I believe the effect if very similar on men, if not the same.
Yes, gotta agree with that @sister! (And congrats on your 3000th post!!)
If a man rants he is just asserting himself - if a woman does it, she is hysterical.
If a woman asserts herself in a job (particularly if she has men working under her) she is also considered a bitch or 'having her monthly' & out of control! Whilst a man is considered authoritative & in control. :(
