<human>: Story: A friend and I were drinking at a bar and walked home at closing time to his apartment around the block to crash. On the way we ran into an acquaintance from a group we'd both met about 2 months ago and asked him if he'd like to hang out. Shortly after we'd arrived, I passed out in the living room being both slightly weak after recovering from a bad cold and having drank too much. I normally sleep pretty heavily and only woke up because I could feel someone slapping/grabbing me in the face (I have multiple implants from reconstructive surgery - poking/slapping my face is a *really* bad way to make me angry). While I was coming to, I could feel that I was unknowingly half naked and being, well, taken advantage of by a much heavier guy (mutual aquaintance mentioned above) who was trying to kiss both my face and my... nether-regions. Feeling threatened and freaked out, I attacked the guy and was able to subdue him a lot easier than I expected (I practice two different martial arts) by nearly suffocating him with a forearm and striking him in the diaphragm. When he wasn't able to fight back I kicked him out down the street, woke my friend who was asleep in his bedroom, and went by myself to the police station down the street. The guy was arrested and charged with sexual battery and I was free to go after making statements and told I'd be called by detectives, etc. This was several days ago.

The problem is: I'm military, an officer at a fraternity at my school, and most importantly, applying to be a law enforcement officer in my city/state. I think I did the right thing but I've been told multiple times to drop the charges to save myself the stigma of being a victim and to sweep it under the rug for the sake of my future career(s). Everyone I trust says it'd be better to do that for myself than to try to press charges.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: I'm a male victim of sexual assault and have been told I don't want to ruin my future military/law enforcement career by reporting it. What should I do?
