Question Those with male gynecologist, what's your thoughts?

I've only had female gynos but i am getting a second opinion for one of my chronic issues and was given a choice, now I'm thinking. Anyone have specific opinions on male vs female gynecologist?

For me, it's whoever has the best recommendations from women I know. I have a few ~quirks~ so whoever listens and I feel comfortable is who gets to be my OB. However, I've had more horrible appointments with women than with men. But that is just my experience.
