Some Psychological Characteristics
of the Love-Shy

        In looking over the wide range of information I collected for this
book I discovered many items upon which there were enormous dif-
ferences between the love-shys and the non-shys. A large portion of
these items concerned matters of pertinence to style of thinking, personal
introspection, and psychoemotional make-up. The primary purpose of
this chapter is to fill out the picture on what love-shy men are really
like as human beings "deep down inside".
