STUDY ON MEN'S HEALTH - EFFECTS OF LEGAL TERRORISM ON MEN'S HEALTH

Study on Men’s Health covers a broad range of research on men’s health and wellbeing. What causes men to die young?  How do false cases which Supreme Court of India has called “legal terrorism”, daily abuse and harassment by women against her male partner by using “women centric” laws in India effect men’s mental health and overall health. This report is not a comprehensive review of the available literature but provides a broad overview of the topic. It is an effort to highlight the plight of men who are neglected by international organizations as well as government bodies within India.

The exact numbers of such cases are difficult to assess as majority cases go unreported. It is even tougher to figure out with exactitude how many men are suffering because of  “legal terrorism”!.

Majority men feel shy to come forward to report abuse, harassment, misuse of law and so most men suffer in silence and die young. There are no support groups to help men. None of the study reports or details highlighting atrocities on men are acknowledged by any institute, government body, and the mainstream media is reluctant to publish abuse on men or health issues concerning men in particular.
