Conjugal roles
Domestic violence
Takes many forms: Physical, psychological, sexual and financial violence.
-
Catriona Mirrlees-Black (1999) - Est around 6.6 mill domestic assaults a year, 50% involve physical industry, most are women, 99% of attacks on men
Nearly 1 in 4 women have been assaulted by a partner some time in their life, 1 in 8 experience repeated offences
Dobash and Dobash - believe it is set off due to challenge to their authority, and argue that marriage legitimates violence by creating an unequal relationship whereby women become dependant on their husbands
Wilkinson argues this is related to social inequalities and w/c women are more likely to suffer from this
-
ISSUE with these figures is that research is often reliant on stats and not a true reflection of reality, not all are reported to police, and yearnshire highlights women on average suffer 35 assaults before going to police, and Cheal suggests police may be reluctant to record cases.
