Domestic Violence against Men

Male and Female, the two basic components of our human society, depend upon each other and each one of them constitutes about half of the population. So we find that man and woman have been established as the two wheels of a chariot. The aim of the study was to assess the domestic violence against men. This was a descriptive study of 30 married men living in urban area of Varanasi. The result of the study showed that, majority of men had mild and moderate domestic violence. The most prominent causes of domestic violence in men were dominant behaviour and attention seeking behaviour of wife. So there is a need to counselling of couple before and after marriage.
