Anna Laura,
I appreciate your honesty, too. Do you really feel like a man? Are you attracted to women at all? Were you sexually abused by a man or woman?
Women have always been a a mystery to me too. Most of my friends have always been guys, not only because I feel more comfortable around them, but because they seem to accept me more than women do. I always feel like there's some sort of feminine secret that no one told me. I don't know how to act around women. I feel like if I had a male psych I'd either turn all flirty on him (if I felt attracted to him) or (if defintely *not* attracted to him I'd probably feel resentful and mistrusting...this may have to do with my physically/verbally abusive father, and my having worked as a topless dancer and cocktail waitress in stripjoints and compiling a lot of--mixed feeling about men.
I wonder if most girls wonder if there's a Girls' Club that they've not been let into?
I'm glad you've found something that works for you, Anna Laura. My male docs have flirted w/ me (one asked me, when i was 18, on a date! and he was married) which makes me resent them.
It's all a matter of personal choice, if you feel more comfortable with X, be it man or woman, go with X.
Are you Italian? Your English is really god, and you sound like a tough chick. (amazing girl, if your slang isn't up to par.)
love,
sar
