That is not what I said. I have no issues about people's personal experiences and totally agree with your point re sharing and/or even warning others. I even stated rather explicitly (in my initial post) that I would not want to see such posts edited/moderated/deleted.

My issue is that a select few throw stereotypes and generalisations around. This is where - and how - prejudice and discrimination originate. So, no, I am afraid it doesn't sit well (for me) to lump any one category of people together & condemn them all. There are dedicated Ts out there and it is a shame to castigate the whole lot.

My issue is thus solely about pre-judging a whole group of people and a whole profession. I can't even explain how disturbing I find such behaviour. That's all I was trying to say.
Thanks for this!
