My experience varies widely. Out of a half dozen different experiences the two men actually listened and prompted something actionable that addressed the issues although one was far better than the other. The other 3 or 4 were women and just leaned into gendered stereotypes because maybe ‘that was the real issue’ and not what I was talking about.
I’m sure that there are amazing women who are therapists for men, but like most things it can be hard to understand nuance without personal experience and it is important for a therapist to actually understand what you are saying and why you are saying it to resolve anything.
