I just wanted to add an example from the current thread about t who is annoyingly taking notes all session and refuses to stop when client is annoyed ! People are very supportive of a poster and make suggestions what to do and how to get out of this etc I can't imagine anyone telling a poster to shut up about her Ts annoying methods of conducting therapy.

It would be a bit different if a poster made a thread titled " most/all Ts on this planet are taking notes all session" and go on suggesting the whole profession is bogus because of that . I doubt anyone would be threatened by such statements but it wouldn't elicit as much support. No one can claim what most therapists do this or that as no one knows "most" of any groups, people would want to share that their therapists aren't taking notes, therapy isn't a bogus since people have experiences of being helped and then such thread isn't "sharing bad experience" but rather generalization.

Again no harm or crime in such threads. It is ok. It is not against guidelines. I just think it's inevitable that it won't raise as much support due to being driven by a very general stereotype. It does not mean people need to get angry about it or call each other names. It is just what it is.
