My husband...won't meet with females of any age without his door open...

I am truly amazed by that, but then, I have no idea about your husband's line of work.

I've had many one-on-one meetings with doctors of the opposite gender. Obviously, neither of us suffered these fears.

Can you imagine a spouse, adult child or friend sitting in on every visit one might make to a psychiatrist/psychologist?

I can reasonably assume your husband doesn't work in the medical field.

It's sad that society has been so deeply damaged by evil people.

“I am truly amazed by that”

Really?
It is standard practice for my male ob/gyn to bring in a female nurse to be present when he performs examinations or other procedures.

I guess I could be offended by that...”this guy thinks I’m going to falsely accuse him of something”

But - he does have to protect himself, and unfortunately the actions of a few whacky women have put male doctors on the defensive.

“I can reasonably assume your husband doesn’t work in the medical field.”

No, but he does work in a heavily female populated profession.
The secretary isn’t actually sitting IN the office..but he leaves his door open, and her desk sits right outside his door.

That way, if anyone wants to accuse him of something - the secretary is there to back him up.

I suppose every female that goes in there could choose to be offended by this, but unfortunately enough jerks have falsely accused others of this type of thing that he has to protect himself.
