Breaking the Silence: A Man's Story of Childhood Sexual Assault.

Christian Weissmann, an actor and writer, shares his experience of being sexually assaulted at the age of 8 and how he kept it a secret for years. He talks about the shame and self-loathing he carried into his adult life and how he finally sought therapy to confront his trauma. Weissmann also discusses the false and toxic version of masculinity he was sold and how acknowledging his sexuality and assault helped him break free from it. He hopes that sharing his story will make others feel less alone and start a conversation about sexual assault and masculinity.
