To every r**e victim ( Males)
I want you to hear this, not as advice, not as someone trying to fix you, but as truth: what happened to you was not your fault. Not then. Not ever. The world may have told you to be silent, to âtoughen up,â to ignore it, to carry the shame alone, but that was never yours to carry.
Your body responded as it needed to survive â freezing, submitting, feeling numb â and none of that made you weak. None of that took away your strength. None of that made you less of a man. What happened to you was violence. You were hurt. You were violated. đ„ș
And it was never about you. It was about someone elseâs choice, someone elseâs cruelty, not your worth. I know the weight you carried in silence â the fear, the confusion, the private shame that no one around you seemed ready to see. You thought no one would believe you. You thought you were alone. You werenât. You are not alone.đ
That boy inside you survived, and the man you became carries the proof of endurance, courage, and survival. You can cry, you can scream, you can be quiet. You can feel anger, grief, guilt, confusion. All of it is valid. None of it diminishes you. And now, today, I want you to know this: the hurt you endured does not define you.đŻ
The silence you kept does not define you. You are whole, you are deserving, you are human, and you are allowed care, healing, and recognition.
You are allowed to be seen for what you are â a survivor, not broken, not shameful, not less, and never alone in this journey. And if anyone tries to make you feel otherwise, know this: their disbelief, their ignorance, or their discomfort says nothing about you. It says everything about them.
You survived something unimaginable. You are still here. You are still worthy. You are still deserving of love, safety, and peace. I want you to know that God sees you.
Psalm 34:18: âThe Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit".
Psalm 147:3
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds".
Jeremiah 29:11 NIV: "For I know the plans I have for you,â declares the Lord, âplans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future".
