Men Against Men Abuse (MAMA)

Men Against Men Abuse (MAMA): A Call to Break the Silence of Male SufferingBy Khokhovula GundabaloyiFor too long, the story of abuse has been told as if it belongs to one gender. Men have been painted only as aggressors, never as victims. Yet in homes, workplaces, and communities across the world, countless men are insulted, humiliated, controlled, and even physically or sexually abused. They are stripped by biased courts, mocked by society, ignored by leaders, and ridiculed by pulpits that refuse to admit their pain. When they cry, they are told, 'A man cannot cry.' When they confess, they are laughed at. When they seek justice, they are dismissed. The result is depression, broken families, addictions, crime, and even suicide.This groundbreaking book tears down the wall of silence. Men Against Men Abuse (MAMA) brings hidden testimonies into the light - husbands ridiculed in their own homes, fathers alienated from their children by false accusations, men crushed under impossible maintenance laws, workers humiliated in the workplace, soldiers and police officers broken by trauma, students manipulated by toxic partners, and brothers mocked by communities that deny their suffering. Abuse has many faces, and some of them look directly at men.Across its pillars, the book exposes emotional manipulation, financial exploitation, psychological games, and the taboo of sexual abuse against men. It reveals the heavy toll of silence - depression, broken identity, and the cycle where abused fathers unknowingly raise wounded sons. It also confronts cultural and religious silence, where tradition and pulpits ignore men’s pain, leaving them abandoned in places that should have been safe.Yet MAMA does not remain in despair. It is not written to destroy, but to rebuild. It calls men back to brotherhood, back to safe spaces, back to rituals of healing, and back to the warrior’s true spirit - strength without violence, courage without cruelty, dignity without domination. It carries the wisdom of the ancestors: that silence destroys, that respect builds, and that no home can stand if the father’s dignity is stripped away. It shows men rising, speaking out, leading change, and turning their wounds into weapons of truth.This book is not against women. It is against abuse, injustice, and silence. It calls for balance, where men and women honor one another, where justice serves every victim equally, and where families are rebuilt in respect instead of rivalry.Khokhovula Gundabaloyi, founder of The Empire Mountain Books (Publishing) and The Empire Motivational Dialogue Spiritual Movement, writes with the authority of a spiritual guide and the fire of a warrior. Through testimonies, proverbs, and powerful storytelling, he gives men permission to speak and communities the courage to listen.If you are a man, this book is your voice. If you are a woman, this book opens your eyes to wounds you may have never seen. If you are a leader, it is your challenge to create justice that heals instead of divides. If you are a community, it is your call to break the curse of silence.The silence has ended. The roar has begun. This is MAMA.
