Depression, fear, anger, disbelief, guilt and doubt plague assault survivors of any gender identity.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It hurts,&rdquo; he writes. &ldquo;A lot.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And he would know. Rogers himself was sexually assaulted on&nbsp;two&nbsp;separate occasions.<\/p>\n<p>The first incident happened when he was just 9 years old. He was&nbsp;in a public shower when a teenager who worked for his family molested him. He didn&rsquo;t tell anyone about the assault, instead quietly&nbsp;carrying it with him, letting it fester for&nbsp;more than a decade, until it happened again.<\/p>\n<p>The second incident occurred just a few years ago. Rogers recalls being at a friend&rsquo;s 21st birthday party and talking to another <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">guy<\/a>. The <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">man<\/a> handed him a drink and, Rogers says, &ldquo;I have no memory until the morning.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>He woke up the next day &ldquo;<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/couples\/?mp_code=akftr\">naked<\/a> and disoriented&rdquo; and &ldquo;being licked by his big-<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">ass<\/a> Dalmatian while he [was]&nbsp;getting dressed.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It [was]&nbsp;the sexual comments about &lsquo;last night&rsquo; that confirmed sexual activity,&rdquo; Rogers writes. &ldquo;And I didn&rsquo;t find a condom wrapper anywhere.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I didn&rsquo;t end up reporting these assaults,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;When I was 9, there hadn&rsquo;t been the conversation about child molestation or rape so who&rsquo;d believe that I wasn&rsquo;t making it up. As for the second one, I was frightened. I was dealing with self-doubt. I didn&rsquo;t want to deal with the police. Would the responding officer mock me? Make inappropriate comments?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>It has taken some time, but Rogers says he&rsquo;s finally found the bravery to share what happened to him.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;One of the greatest <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">men<\/a> I know once told me if I really wish to make a difference in the world I have to tell my story,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;Not the public story I share with others in polite arenas &mdash; the real, personal one.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps in doing so,&nbsp;Rogers hopes, he&nbsp;will help empower other <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">male<\/a> victims of sexual assault to stand up for themselves, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related stories:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.queerty.com\/15-year-old-kentucky-boy-gang-raped-by-five-men-in-videotaped-assault-20141020\">15-Year-Old Kentucky Boy Gang Raped By Five Men In Videotaped Assault<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.queerty.com\/was-this-guy-date-raped-or-not-he-isnt-sure-20141023\">Was This Guy Date Raped Or Not?
