Does the fact that men engage in a large amount of emotional violence in their personal relationships indicate that the general male feels inexplicably uneasy about life? Is it true that men are the "winner" as designed by the concept of "men should dominate"? Here, we see that the behavior exhibited by men (towards women, as it is easiest to do so) is a form of anger, and this tense string may also indicate that men do not feel smooth and do not receive the feedback they want.
Perhaps men are increasingly feeling that the current world is both terrifying and unsatisfactory, especially because job opportunities are scarce, or they may have to change jobs or careers several times in their lives and feel at a loss for their future. Even the love that was once taken for granted may be deprived, because now men need to treat women as equals and be careful in every small matter. Perhaps men can no longer expect women to be gentle, be prepared to take care of them, or establish a home, and so on. There is no guarantee that women will stay at home and wait for men at any time now. The way men treat women is likely to express their general feelings about life, themselves, and their future.
Jacob Bronowski once said, "Perhaps World War II and the atomic bomb dehumanized us and others." World War II strengthened the belief in masculinity, but this concept has since changed significantly. In the war, the collective mind of American men may feel vaguely uncomfortable, because they are forced to learn to believe that killing is justified - on the surface, they are proud of the devotion, the strong, the cruel lone ranger or the jungle fighter, but in the heart they are constantly fighting with the resulting guilt - is this the price of victory: the way men absorb the collective sense of responsibility for violence and death? This behavior is still common today, but not every man truly believes in the cruel definition of masculinity. What factors distinguish them from others and perceive the unfairness of this concept?
