I seem to be in the minority on this board so I was just wondering, how many other guys post here regularly?

I haven't heard of any other men although am sure there must be some, maybe they are too embarrassed and pretend are female due to stigma of domestic abuse on males

Hi Henry ---

I've seen and have corresponded with men on this board. Certainly, a fractional number compared to women, but I've seen and interacted with some.

Hey Henry:

Abuse is abuse. I have 5 brothers who were abused by our father. Sorry if sometimes I use post assuming all female. But abuse knows no gender....welcome and Happy V-Day!
