How to make my husband feel like a man💪

My husband opened up to me super early in the morning, like 3am, that he hasn't felt like a man in over a year since he got raped... He's in therapy before anyone suggests. I'm just wondering how mabe I can help him feel like a man. He thinks I treat him like he's a broken child... If he wakes up having a panic attack I'm gonna want to comfort him. That isn't me trying to treat him like he's broken. Any ideas on how to build up his self esteem?

When I asked what he meant he said he doesn't feel like a man because he got raped(which sadly I can't take away...) And because he feels like he's supposed to be helping and protecting me and instead I'm holding him when he's crying or having a panic attack. He thinks I pbly see him as broken.
