I like that he's open with you about his frustration. It's always worse when they try to cover up.
Had you mentioned the sexualization first? Did it flow naturally? I think it would feel almost seductive for a therapist to bring it up himself, unless there was a lot of grounding in context.
I could be hearing it wrong though. It's not something I have any experience with. My therapist isn't likely to have any sexualized feelings toward me. I'm not sure I'd like him to bring up any other particularly personal reactions either. But then I have pretty strong boundaries against anything that might come close to intrusive.
