I very much appreciate you sharing your husband (and your) story! Male survivors - are very, very, very alone - and closeted - so often - because of the lack of supportive services, homophobia and more. When roughly 2012-2018 - I had a website - A Men's Project - listing resources for men on men's issues - mostly women responded (not my intended audience). The men that responded were nearly all adult survivors of assault and abuse - very alone. I'd also refer others to my 1987 writing on Men Organizing Against Rape (primarily towards women) - http://georgesworldonthewater.blogspot.com/2020/05/my-1987-mens-anti-rape-organizing.html . I would also highly recommend - particularly men - watching: Promising Young Woman (it might trigger your husband) - my review: http://georgesworldonthewater.blogspot.com/2021/01/promising-young-woman.html - it shows the protection and silence of other men - your husband unfortunately faced a very similar situation! Best wishes and best of luck!!
