Dr. Frieze:
We chose to leave the information about Divorce, the "Reasons for Leaving," and the facts taken from the Dr. Irene Website. We felt that, although not taken from studies done, they are important to the website and closely associated with our topic. We found that these observation were relevant and they came up several times in our search for information. We think that these are a good supplement to the information based solely on research and helped to make the site more friendly and accessible, not just a collection of facts. The goal of our website was to make men feel more comfortable when discussing this often embarrassing topic.
