It takes alot of courage to face your abuser, so I can imagine how hard it would be to talk to (or even be in the presence) of somebody who was the same gender as your abuser.
But that is just a psychological response to a fight or flight situation, one which as a species we need to evolve out off.

So:
Victim: I've been raped, please help me...
Man: OK, you can talk to me.
Victim: I'm sorry, I really can't be in a room with a man just now. I'd prefer to talk to a woman.
Man: Oh come on, that's just a psychological response to a fight or flight situation, one which as a species we need to evolve out off.
Should the day come that I experience some awful crisis, I will thank the good Lord above that I won't be getting the benefit of your 'vast experience' at counselling.
