My t gets sad, has cried a few times, gets seriously pissed off and angry, gets defensive sometimes, stubborn, tired, sleepy, proud, happy, silly, etc.
it helps a lot to see her range of motions. My parents were pretty much blank slates. To see m6 t have feelings, especiall when they are feelings concerning me, that makes a big impact.

I love seeing how human she is (she has never tried to hide it, shes always been that way).
I have always been fully aware that Ts sre human though... I am married to a T and he is way emotional at times.
