Perceptions
It is very common for men to avoid reporting or admitting to cases of domestic violence due to various reasons, such as fear of ridicule, embarrassment, and the lack of support. This taboo subject is often trivialized and ignored by society, which makes it hard to determine how prevalent this issue is. Due to the lack of support services and health care professionals, male victims often don't receive the necessary assistance. Additionally, according to statistics; analysis, around 35% of male respondents believe they have a mental health problem at some point in their lives, and 40% of men will not talk about their mental health, all because of society's portrayal of how men should behave.

Research
Despite the significant increase in empirical output over the past 15 years, the lack of research on domestic violence still persists. There is still a lot of doubt when it comes to the causes of this violence and the treatment and prevention of it. Some clinicians are reluctant to conduct research on this subject due to the complexity of the issues involved.
