This article discusses the trauma for rape as experienced by women rape victims and focuses on a men's support group for male‐significant‐others of women who have been raped. The project describes the various developmental phases through which the male‐significant‐others of rape victims must pass in order to achieve resolution and the impact of the male's response upon the relationship with the victim.
