Skylnyx..I totaly agree with you. Most of the time it is not about sex. It's about acceptance in my situation. Society uses sex as a weapon.  I prefer female doctors, (T's and MD's) because I feel like they have more compassion. I am new to this forum and am getting into some of the posts. I applaud the people who post here. They show great strength even if they do not see it in themselves. I have found over the years what people don't say speaks louder that what they do say. Some of the posts here bring back memories I have spent years trying to keep buried. A recent incident with my heart surgery is what led me to this site. I was in therapy over 20 years ago but fired my T because I was feeling I was nothing more that a paycheck to her. This last incident is forcing me to seek out a new T. I can't get an appointment until next week so don't know when I will be able to start. I know it will take at least 3 sessions before I can even start getting into my problems.  To everyone on this site I say..Hang in there, YOU ARE NOT ALONE in your struggles. We feel your pain because we are or have been there ourselves.  Soon, I will do a post on why I am here......Huggles to all.
