Title: Shattering Illusions:
Author: Elliot, Pam
Appeared in: Journal of gay & lesbian social services
Paging: Volume 4 (1996) nr. 1 pages 1-8
Year: 1996-05-16
Contents: Lesbian and gay domestic violence has shattered the illusion that gays and lesbians are less violent than their heterosexual coutnerparts. The reality is that domestic violence occurs at approximately the same rate in gay and lesbian relationships as it does in heterosexual unions. Many similarities exist, but the differences between same-sex battering and heterosexual battering are the reason this controversial topic has taken so long to address in both the gay and lesbian community and in the battered women's movement. New theories of violence and models for intervention must be developed if same-sex domestic violence is to be confronted.
