As-Salamu ‘Alaykum dear brother,
Thank you for writing to us. I am so sorry for the loss of your parents and all the horrific trauma and abuse that has happened to you throughout your childhood and adolescence. There are no words to adequately describe the horror you have been through. Allah’s wrath will be upon those people who have tortured and abused you, brother.
You Are not Alone
Sadly, as you know, you are not alone. According to Psychology Today, in the USA 1 in 6 boys are sexually abused. “By age 16, as many as one in six boys in America has had unwanted sex with an adult or older child. Millions of men abused as children, continue to live with the debilitating effects of shattered trust”. It is truly a devastating and evil epidemic causing many men to suffer from a myriad.
You stated you are in counseling. I am wondering, brother, do you attend support groups as well? How would you rate your progress since you started counseling? How long have you been in counseling? I am asking because if you have been in counseling for a while you will understand that the feelings you are having (no sexual feelings for women, attracted to men; feeling your soul is injured; feeling like a women inside; thoughts of killing self, etc.) are often common in some men who have been raped, abused, and tortured as children. Much of what you are feeling or not feeling may be rooted in this trauma, with additional feelings of loss of trust and fear.
It is a De-masculinizing Trauma
Psychology Today also points out that “Sexually abused boys are also troubled if they were aroused while being abused. Teenagers are easily aroused, having little control over the hormones surging through their bodies. But if they’re stimulated by aspects of their experience, they may feel they participated in or even invited the abuse. This confuses a boy who also knows he was also repelled by the experience. Feeling guilty about any sexual pleasure he felt during his molestation, he may become ambivalent about all sexual pleasure”. 
This is an important point, especially regarding your sexual orientation and your feelings of being like “a women inside” as well as your seeming attraction to men. As you were abused sexually over and over again by males, it is possible that in your child mind you began to associate yourself as female as your abusers were male. As the abuse was severe and prolonged, your soul was harmed and possibly the result was to try to make sense of it all at some point. This is not something you did consciously, but rather as a coping mechanism to deal with the horror and severe abuse you were going through.
It is a de-masculinizing trauma. Some research has supported this theory and other research states there is no correlation between sexual abuse and sexual orientation later in life. Whatever the case may be, brother, I do feel it is something you should explore further with your counselor, or perhaps within a support group of Adult survivors of Sexual Abuse & Trauma. By hearing the experiences and feelings of others who may have had similar things happen to them you may gain insight into your own present issues.
Engage in CBT & Support Groups for Adult Survivors of Sexual Abuse
My dear brother, while I do not know all the details, I do know that often times after such horrific abuses, there are sexual identity issues that occur as well as a numbness, loss of sexual interest, and misdirected sexual desire. There are definitely trust issues as in all trauma of this kind. These aftermath effects are the brain’s way of coping with the terror that has occurred.
As you are seeing a counselor, if you are not engaged in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I would highly suggest that you ask your counselor about it. Cognitive therapy may help to identify distorted thoughts of yourself, others, and the world around you. It attempts to replace these maladaptive cognitive thoughts with more accurate and realistic views of yourself and the world. The behavioral portion works on enhancing the behavior-response repertoire by learning about more adaptive behavioral responses, coping strategies, and learning new skills. This will in sha’ Allah help you gain a deeper insight into why you feel what you do and how to restructure not only your thinking processes but your behaviors as well. CBT has a high success rate but it does take time and dedication.
As you stated, you look at other happy couples with babies and wish for this. In sha’ Allah, brother, you will have this. Allah (swt) is most merciful and He (swt) loves you. Allah (swt) does see and know your pain, brother, and He (swt) will never leave you. You are a wonderful man, and I am amazed at how far you have come in this life after all the horrible abuse you went through. You seemed to have come far in your healing. You just have a bit further to go, in sha’ Allah. But never give up. Do not doubt that Allah (swt) has created you to heal and succeed.
You have a compassionate heart and want to help other boys who may be at risk or victims of what you have been through. May Allah (swt) bless you, dear brother, for your strong and compassionate heart. Many who went through what you have, become bitter and hateful. They do not want to help anyone as they are so hurt and damaged. You are not.
In sha’ Allah, you will work out your identity and desire issues and return to a state of mind wherein you can continue to develop in the way Allah (swt) intended you to. You have made great progress and you should be proud of yourself. Try to relax your thoughts of this. Seek Allah’s (swt) guidance and make du’aa’ for your full healing.
Please do look into CBT if you’re not already engaged in it as well as support groups for Adult Survivors of Sexual Abuse. I have no doubt that you can overcome these possibly last hurdles in your healing and attain all you want in life – a wife, children, peace of mind and more. In sha’ Allah, you will be well prepared to help other young men such as yourself on their healing journey from such tragic abuse, perhaps making a career in the helping profession or doing charity work. Your suffering was not in vain, dear brother. Allah (swt) has great things in store for you, just hold on to the rope of Allah (swt).
You are in our prayers brother. Please let us know how you are doing.
Salam,
