You do you, bro. Your examples are black and white and don't allow for any gray or nuance. No one is saying a white provider can't help a person of color. No one is saying rape survivors should only see rape survivors. I'm saying I have a preference and asking for recommendations. If you don't have any, cool, move along. I don't actually have to justify it to you bc you're not my provider. I had a provider recommend a major surgery when all I actually needed was an outpatient procedure. I had a patient who was diagnosed with schizophrenia bc she feels presences and can see her deceased family members. Does she have schizophrenia? No. So we've all had our share of hearing or knowing bad experiences. So I'm going to make my decisions based off scientific research and personal experience and you can do whatever you see fit with yours. Good day to you, sir.
