So yesterday, I went to my therapist. It all went well as usual, still stuck in the closet but she's a great help. Anyway, when setting up my latest appointment I put my male name on the email. When she responded she used my female name. I was sort of curious to know why she did it. So she tells me that she doesn't think of me as a male, I have too many female traits. She also commented that I have a lot of guilt and empathy, something she thinks is very feminine.
I was a little shocked by this being a 51 year old balding type. I didn't think I was that obvious, but she's the gender therapist.
I think I glowed for a while after those comments. I wanted to give her a great big hug.
