So, the statistics of the reported cases doesn't represent the reality of what's going on, and besides that there is no other data about the commonality of the ET in each gender scenario. From what I've read in the professional magazines that regularly publish reports about disciplinary actions, both male and female therapists are being reported, including for sexual violations, but the reports on male therapists seem to be more common.
That makes sense. If a female T came on to me and kissed me or whatever, I would stop her....but I wouldn't report it. I don't know. I guess I am just a guy.
