I found one article but it was not a study but just case histories of two
different couples and how men were emotionally effected. I'd like to see a
long study report done on men related to how it later effects them and in
their day to day life but I'm wondering if anybody has bothered to do such a
study. I'm not suggesting we feel sorry for the men for what they did
without responsibility but I am wondering if the church has overlooked yet
another group of wounded hurting people.
