My Pdoc is a straight male, I am a bisexual female, and my sexual orientation has never been an issue. I was upfront about it very early on, after I'd spoken about past relationships and mentioned both male and female partners - since then he's helped me deal with some residual issues surrounding a past break up with the girl I was with before I met my husband and I've always been able to speak openly about having an attraction to people that is non gender specific. There are always two things any T or Pdoc needs to be able to fully accept in order for me to work with them, and that's my sexuality and my spiritual beliefs (I'm Wiccan) - if they have an issue with either of those things, then they're not the T/Pdoc for me.
