Oh, how horrible. How old are you now? How are you dealing with it?

I am so sorry that you endured such painful, traumatic experiences.
I am sending you loving thoughts and healing energy. Thank you for your courage in sharing your story and helping to protect others.

I am so sorry that you are the victim of such a heinous, criminal act. Did you report the incident? Are you involved in counseling?

I earnestly hope that you reported the incident - what you were forced to endure was a violent crime, not a sexual escapade. I would gently urge you to seek professional counseling/therapy from someone who specializes in victims of violent crimes and report the incident (no matter HOW long ago it happened). Rape is not an act of sexual gratification - it is a crime of violence, control, degradation, humiliation, and it happens to men more often than is imaginable.

God bless you in your journey from victim to Survivor.

I've read that men rape other men. Sheesh, do not drink ANYTHING someone else gives you no matter how good of a friend that person is. Everyone including men have to guard against rape. It's damn ridiculous! Buy a gun,keep it loaded, and keep it close.

As this is a virus that tends to have observable effects primarily in females, how did you discover you had this virus and why do you attribute becoming infected with it to that incident when you were 12?
