It has nothing to do with being one of the girls. I’m not one of the girls, either, IMO. I’m just anti-jackass.

By the way, leap and the net will appear could also apply to *leaving* the therapist.

And yes, LT, the B word rhymes with witch.
Agreed on what you said about Chihiro's T. It's not like she's running away from him to avoid some truth. It's that he's pushing/violating the boundaries.

I was unclear on whether Una's comment on leap and net meant staying with or leaving her T.

I'm not offended that Dr. T isn't your cup of tea--I imagine he wouldn't be for a lot of people. We work well together now, but it's been a bumpy road getting here. And he's done/said some things that have really hurt me. But like you said, he's never been persistently disrespectful or pushed boundaries anywhere near to the point that it made me uncomfortable. He generally respects what I want to (and don't want to) talk about. I could never see him saying we couldn't work together if I wouldn't talk about a particular topic, for example.

Thanks for clarifying about the B-word (I contemplated another word, but it seemed really weird in the context).
