of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by,
unfortunately, parents or other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals.
The wear-and-tear that comes from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.”
Yehuda博士注意到了另一个男女之间的不同点。我认为,女性通常要做的事是慢性的,重复的。而男人去战场,承受的是格斗的压力。男性面临的更多的是随意的身体上的暴力。女性面对的人与人之间的暴力是在家庭环境中的。不幸的是,她们与父母还有其他的家庭成员之间不是能够一次性解决的问题。这种长期的关系的磨合是更有破坏性的。
