- Abstract
Based on the analysis of the films The Crying Game and A Fantastic Woman, we reflect on the constitution of male and cisgender identities. These reflections are guided by elements of the psychoanalytic theories of Freud, Jean Laplanche and Silvia Bleichmar about the construction of these identities. We question what can explain the difficulties that some cis men have to sustain their affective choices regarding relationships with trans women. We conclude that, in relation to trans women, heterosexual cis men may experience anguish arising from their psychic conflicts, especially those arising from the constitution of their gender identity, marked by the repression of passivity.
