My personal experience is a lot of shame surrounding my SA history, whether talking w/ a male or female. Up until the last few weeks, I never told a soul. Male or female. I was absolutely terrified to tell anyone. Those that I have talked to about little bits have been very understanding and kind. I'd recommend not focusing on who you're talking with, as long as you trust them. I am only willing to talk with those that I trust significantly. The trust is imperative.
