The Psychology Today site actually allows you to search for therapists in your area based on race. I hear about plenty of black people only wanting to discuss issues with other black people. I had a friend that wanted a black therapist. I know woman friends who want woman therapists. I would feel better seeing a gay male therapist, depending on what the situation was about. Some people aren't picky. More power to them.

As with dating, I honestly don't care if its racist or transphobic or misogynist or whatever to not share your intimate physical, social, or psychological side with someone. Life is too goddamn short. This whole coronavirus thing and the social isolation really drove that home for me, giving me a chance to reflect on how little I've really lived for myself. I want to make priorities about who I want in my life, and that is mainly other gay men. On the flip side, I've had to come to terms with the fact that people don't wanna deal with me because I'm white/male/cis/whatever. As long as they let me live my life in peace, I am happy to extend that same respect to them. We cannot all be friends, and the outraged shrieks from grown adults who want to micromanage every social interaction between other grown ass adults to make sure everyone is "playing nice" should be ignored.
