This article dives deep and talks about aggressive communication and how it is considered a
strong communication style since yelling, blaming, and commanding others to do things is not a
typical behavior. It also talks about how we may also see aggressive nonverbal communication
which may consist of hitting, pushing, or throwing objects and also physical abuse. Aggressive
communication occurs most often when others are poor in their commmuntication or act
defensively without listening to what you are saying.
