In all my years of mentoring gay men and all the private conversations I have with other gay men of all ages, experiences, and education levels. People would be shocked at how many have experienced rape/sexual violence before the age of 17. It’s really heartbreaking. https://twitter.com/lexual__/status/1270761721507065859
Like @Lexual__ is purporting, it is deeply underreported because sexual violence towards male minors is often seen as a part of the rearing process to manhood. Especially when the violence is perpetrated by an older girl/woman, like Boosie who is doing this to his sons.
With that all being said. Here is a link to mental health services targeted to black men. I suggest that if you haven’t confronted your past on this. It is no better a time to do so. They work with all forms insurance, even if you don’t have it.
