It is not mean or name calling -it is an analogy. I did not call any posters nor did I imply name calling at any posters here.

Paying women 59 cents to the male dollar is too much.
Therapists need protecting from those scary female clients.

I do believe some therapists (and in general the whole profession's attitude) utilize assholic ways of interacting with clients. I do not sympathize with therapists. They, for whatever reason, chose to go into the profession and one would hope even therapists have some training in dealing with clients who are not goody two shoes - therefore I do not sympathize when a client is not all submissive and kowtowing to a therapist and it upsets or hurts the therapist's ego.

I find it interesting because I think people (especially women in my opinion, who are constantly told to "be nice"" be good", "don't upset anyone", "don't take up space", "make the professional feel better about themselves" etc) are taught and trained to sympathize with the bullying professional and blame themselves and each other when being abused or gaslighted or bullied by professionals. It has to be the person's fault because we need to believe the profession is there to protect us and if it is the profession's fault - then no one is safe. And I don't think it is true. I don't think clients, particularly women, need worry about playing nicely with therapists, especially male therapists.
And the attitude in the article was that of condescension and bullying - in my opinion. And I do not wish to collude with those guys in their attempts at doing that to clients.
