Badge Of Honor

In this episode, we discuss the struggles men have with being aware and accepting that most times their first time was rape. It wasn't by someone from the clergy or someone their own age but a babysitter, family friend, family member, or teacher. Society teaches men that it's a badge of honor to sleep with an older woman so it doesn't get seen as rape. It wasn't seen for a long time. The pressure of not having a "gay" son became the stomping grounds for having a raped son who becomes hypersexual instead of identifying it as rape, getting counseling from it, and moving on. Men should have that trusted space too to say that they were victimized and they want better. Seek counseling before it destroys your relationships and friendships.
