Robert’s comments from the Reader with a Cause group.

I sometimes wonder if there is any correllation between male aggression and the suppression of emotions in males? Men are taught to 'be a man' when they feel pain, meaning to suppress their feelings. If a boy gets hurts, he is told to 'man up' about it, and no one is ever supposed to see a man cry. If a man does, he is considered a 'sissy.' Perhaps, some of the anger men display is nothing short of pent up emotions that have no conduit for escape. This does not make it legitimate in any means, but it might shed light on a possible cause, thus creating an eventualy answer. I can only hope.

Hello all! My name is Robert, and I've recently published a novel about domestic abuse. Extensive research has shown me the horrors about the issue, and I hope my book can in some way help further the cause of awareness.
