Someone's confession

This would be so embarrassing to confess. Lately, people kept talking about how brave all the sexual harassment victims became vocal and started to talk. This has led to a domino effect which incite more to confess. It includes me. But honestly, I did not even have any proof to start. It was blurry and I can’t remember most of it. It all started that night when I was freshman around 2018 when I and another friend of mine slept over my friend’s room. He was one of my good friends. I already knew that time he was gay, but I didn’t have any issues on that, nor I worried about it. But my other friend didn’t know that. He had this tiny bed, so my “other friend” slept on a carpet on the floor, and I slept with him on the bed. After a long talk that night, we decided to sleep. Around midnight I remembered I was woken up because someone gripped my penis. I immediately opened my eyes and saw him pretended to sleep. It was so blurry, and I didn’t really think about it until the next morning. I won’t consider it as something that makes me feel less human, but I know that won’t happen again. But this came back to my mind after seeing his comment on social media about current tragedies that occurred in my uni. It makes me wonder what people will say if a man confesses about something like this, or what he thought when deciding to post that comment knowing that he had done something similar, although it was not as bad as mine. Does it make me less important because I’m a man? Does he think he can get away with it because I’m a man?
