I've never seen a sex therapist but I know someone who's planning to be one and, frankly, the idea scares the poop out of me.

She plans to put her name on the list of Kink Aware Professionals and she is so feminist and not kink aware. She's constantly trying to give M and me advice and it's always so far out in left field with regard to our lifestyle and sex life that I haven't been able to take a bit of it with anything but a grain of salt.

If all sex therapists are like this than, in my opinion, people who need them are doomed. I'm looking forward to hearing others' experiences, though. Maybe it's just this one.

If the sex therapist is legit and only into helping the patient, then I think it is truly a marvelous thing. I have read about sex therapy and the good it can so with the right person and I am just sad that there are not more of them.

Of course, I can see that if there is a sexual problem of some sort either with an individual or in a relationship that it might be hard to go to a stranger and not only open up to them about it, but to also let them touch and arouse you in a sexual way.

I had a friend who spent several years working in New York and went to a sex therapist because she could not climax with a partner. It took quite a few sessions, some of which involved no touching of a sexual nature, but was geared to getting her to be comfortable with someone else in the bed. There was hugging, cuddling, stroking of the arm or whatever before it progressed, and then it went very slowly. She says it was the best money she ever spent.

How does her being a feminist interfere with her ability to offer worthwhile advice? Honestly, I'm just curious about your perception. In my mind, there doesn't have to be any conflict between feminism and kink, but I know that's not the case for some people.
