About the Book

There is a movement in the United States and also around the world in which men are not allowed, nor expected to speak of the physical/mental/verbal abuse that is inflicted upon them by their female partners. While the press in the United States will splash all over the headlines of when a male is involved in domestic violence as the perpetrator, when it is the other way around, you will not see anything about it anywhere. This book exposes the myths surrounding domestic violence pertaining to males, and how the laws, the press, even how we are raised affects the outcome.
