Plain and simple they are scared out of their wits! It's a learned behavior, or, in some cases a way of survival in a dysfunctional family. They have never been taught how to treat the opposite sex and often abusers are also bullies against their own kind. They need constant control to protect themselves and although they can love they are afraid to say so out of weakness and loss of control. They may form the words "I love you" and then be abusive right after. It's perplexing at the best of times. Generally men refuse to go for counseling when they are abusers because they honestly don't think they are and women are more likely to seek counseling when and if they admit they have an abusive behavior.
