Concept information

Preferred term

same-sex domestic violence  

Definition(s)

  • Although scholars have studied intimate partner violence for decades, when it comes to same-sex domestic violence there is a considerable gap in the research, even though the issue has gradually received more attention. Undeniably, family violence and intimate partner violence historically applied only to traditional, heterosexual couples.
