Types of Abusive Men
“Why Does He Do That?”
Lundy Bancroft
The Types of Abusive Men
Chapter 4
“The qualities that make up an abusive man are like the
ingredients in a recipe: The basics are always present, but the relative
amounts vary greatly.”
“The sections below describe each style of man while he is being abusive.”
Excerpts from "Why Does He Do That?" (abuse)
Inside The Mind…
Excerpts from “Why
Does He Do That?” by Lundy Bancroft
Ø
Definition of an Abuser: A man with
recurring problems with disrespecting, controlling, insulting, or devaluing his
partner-whether or not his behavior also includes more explicit verbal abuse,
physical aggression, or sexual misconduct.
Ø
Abuse has very little to do with how a man feels
and everything to do with how he thinks.
The core problem is a distorted sense of
right and wrong and the belief that abusing or controlling is justifiable.
Ø
It is common for men to feel some guilt or
discomfort about their abusive behavior, but simultaneously believe strongly
the validity of his excuses and justifications.
Ø
Does he abuse me because he is mentally ill? It
is his value system that is unhealthy, not his psychology. Mental illness does
not cause abusiveness.
Ø
An abuser frequently tells you what you should
think and tried to get you to doubt or devalue your own perceptions and
beliefs.
Ø
Abusers become attached to the various
privileges that they earn by operating with power and control. Utilize
depersonalization and objectification to justify entitlement.
Ø
Abuse is not a product of bad relationship
dynamics and you cannot make things better by changing your own behavior or
attempting to manage your partner.
Ø
The abuser draws you into focusing on the
turbulent would of his feelings to keep your eyes turned away from the true
cause of his abusiveness, which lies in how he thinks.
Ø
He takes away your rights, especially your right
to be angry with him.

Profile of a Batterer
Types:
· Explosive Temper: Abusers have limited tolerance for frustration, they get mad at anything regardless of how little or significant it is. They may begin to throw things or punch walls, etc.
· Low Self-Esteem: They may feel that they have not met their ideal goals for themselves. They may be disappointed with their job or feel inadequate.
· Blames Others: Abusers are unable to take responsibility for their behaviors and feelings. Common statements are: "You made me mad"; "You made me do that"; and "You make me happy." The message is "You control how I feel." Nothing is ever the abuser's fault and everything that happens to them is their partner's fault. Somebody is always "out to get them."
· Manipulative/Deceitful: The abuser may start off as charming or a gentleman, but then turn hurtful and violent. Everyone likes him/her and can't believe that s/he can hurt anyone.
