Re: Male or female -- does it matter?

Well, I started with a male, and he was ok, but I eventually switched to doing both therapy and med management with my female psych MD. Quite honestly I think the male T was "smoother", always knew what to say & what to ask. However, I appreciate the female T so much more because she is not perfect, her office is a mess, yet I still feel I can "model" myself after her. (Ok -- major transference thing there I know.) Having no effective female role models in my life, I really need that.

I will also add, that the few times sex has come up it has been just as difficult with the female T as with the male. Maybe even moreso, because as I said he was very smooth & calm and made everything seem so easy to talk about.

Hang in there.
:)
