In reply to I'm a male patient...female therapist best for me?, posted by Tom on May 15, 2000, at 20:59:04
I dunno, Tom. Sounds like your first male therapist was a good fit. As for stuffing up your feelings inside, perhaps finding a male therapist who thinks the "strong, silent type" is a load of road apples would be more effective in helping you make a change than a woman would.
Then again, I should talk. I grew up blue collar in a house filled with males (and my mom) and I grew up hating men and male culture (as defined, for the most part, by 1960's blue collar immigrant Catholic men). I'd laugh at anybody who'd suggest I should see a male therapist.
my two cents (or whatever its worth!)
