Agree with you totally. In fact, having worked for both, I have many times been asked whether I preferred a male or a female boss. My answer was always the same. I prefer the person who is the best boss.

However, having reached the "golden years" (especially when I cough or sneeze) I find there may be some things that I personally would feel more comfortable discussing with a female rather than a male. Perhaps that is OP's position?

Or, is it simpy the case of a jealous spouse? Or, maybe the female doctor is for her husband. LOL
