I have had disasterous relationships with women in the past. My primary abuser was a woman. Since that time, I seem to perfer men when it comes to the more intimate things. Call me weird.
I chose a male counselor after having FOUR female counselors. My experience was such that women tend to be more. ..demonstrative. . .with their concern, affection, whatever you want to call it. Having someone reach over and pat me on the shoulder, the knee, somewhere and say, "It's ok" just pushed me over the edge, repeatedly. NO man in his right mind is going to touch a female client unless its truly therapeutic and he has permission. Women are just too touchy for me.
