Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.

It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.

I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

I'm not good at gratitude letters, but here's a start.

Dear Directors Gordon and Papaioannou:

I appreciate the fact that your office is making the effort to acknowledge the presence of male victims of rape and sexual assault, and to address their needs.

As your page [1] indicates, about 1 in 6 men are likely to have suffered sexual abuse by the time they enter college, and males are often raised to carry a mentality that doesn't allow them to identify as victim. It's encouraging to know that when they reach your university, they may find a resource to help them connect to a healing community.

Should you be in need of additional research, you'll find much at 1in6.org[2], and on our website FAQ:

Sincerely,
