0:00.0	So Bob, we have a bunch of emails here. Let's read them and answer them. What do you say?
0:03.8	Yes. This is the Psychology in Seattle podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Kirk Honda. I'm a therapist and
0:09.7	a professor. And who are you, Bob Gettle? I am Bob Gettle, therapist and practice here in Seattle,
0:16.0	and your old friend from school. Yeah. Old friend in two ways, both old and old. Yes, thank you.
0:23.9	Patron Leia says, I just listened to one of your episodes and it got me thinking that the
0:29.6	therapist client sexual boundary violations can't be that rare. I remember you cited a study that
0:35.2	said 10% of therapists have had sex with their clients. And I just looked up today that it's
0:40.8	9% of male therapists have acted on their sexual attraction to clients from a 2016 study. That's
0:46.8	one in 10. And these are just the ones that who report it. I feel like this is a much bigger problem
0:53.7	than we even know. What do you think, Bob? What do you think? You know, I have no idea. I find

1:19.6	statistics was that there's a much bigger problem in the past. 50 years ago, our ethics and
1:26.0	professionalism wasn't what it is today. And there was like, I mean, even in the beginning of
1:32.0	psychoanalysis, they're like half of the half of the major psychoanalysts like had sex with
1:37.8	their clients even married some, you know, but Fadenzi, Karen Hornai,
1:42.0	Jung was implicated. And so it was a progression into the current times, which I thought was much more
1:54.8	professional and much more buttoned up. But so I think sometimes on the podcast, I'll say like,
2:00.7	well, it's pretty rare these days. But I looked back at the stats and I thought I'd give you a
2:07.2	little quiz, Bob, what do you say? I'm going to fail it. But before going into that, I do want to
2:13.5	reflect what you're saying, which is that if you just asked me without the stats before me, I would
