"She was quizzing me on what, specifically, I want to do with this guy sexually. I was really uncomfortable with it and she said it was fine to not answer if I found it 'painful' but the more she knew the better"
This is clear sign of a boundary issue. Your feelings of pain were valid. This isn't her place to know details unless you want to expose them.
Details are yours and not the therapists unless you want to discuss them. You are the commander of the therapy. People forget that. It is the client that directs therapy. I would point blank ask why they wanted details and how is that helping me with my therapy. Don't minimize or rationalize your original reaction away. It is valid.
