(Ronet Bachman Ph.D., U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics, "Violence Against Women: A National Crime Victimization Survey Report," January 1994, p. iii) Over two-thirds of violent victimizations against women were committed by someone known to them: 31% of female victims reported that the offender was a stranger. Approximately 28% were intimates such as husbands or boyfriends, 35% were acquaintances, and the remaining 5% were other relatives. (In contrast, victimizations by intimates and other relatives accounted for only 5% of all violent victimizations against men. Men were significantly more likely to have been victimized by acquaintances (50%) or strangers (44%) than by intimates or other relatives.)

The NVAW survey found that women are significantly more likely than men to report being victims of rape, physical assault, or stalking than men. Women also experience more chronic and injurious physical assaults at the hands of intimate partners. The survey found that women who were physically assaulted by an intimate partner averaged 6.9 physical assaults by the same partner, whereas men averaged 4.4 assaults. Race and Socioeconomic Factors Rates of intimate partner violence vary significantly among women of diverse racial backgrounds. The survey found that Asian/Pacific Islander women and men tend to report lower rates of intimate partner violence than do women and men from other minority backgrounds, and African-American and American Indian/Alaska Native women and men report higher rates. However, differences among minority groups diminish when other sociodemographic and relationship variables are controlled.

Back to Fact Sheets Search Injury Intimate Partner Violence Fact Sheet Overview Intimate partner violence—or IPV—is actual or threatened physical or sexual violence or psychological and emotional abuse directed toward a spouse, ex-spouse, current or former boyfriend or girlfriend, or current or former dating partner. Intimate partners may be heterosexual or of the same sex. Some of the common terms used to describe intimate partner violence are domestic abuse, spouse abuse, domestic violence, courtship violence, battering, marital rape, and date rape (Saltzman, et al. 1999). CDC uses the term intimate partner violence because it describes violence that occurs within all intimate relationships. Some of the other terms are overlapping and may be used to mean other forms of violence including abuse of elders, children, and siblings.

HOME CAMPAIGNS RUSSIA CAMPAIGN Home ... Recommendations Violence against women A leaflet by the non-governmental organization ANNA, which is dedicated to the elimination of domestic violence in Russia. In February 2002 the helpline of Syostri (Sisters), a crisis centre for women, received a frantic call from neighbours of a woman living in Moscow. The neighbours had called the police to try to stop a fight between the woman and her violent husband, but the police had reportedly refused to come. Syostri contacted the police, but they still refused to intervene, saying it was a family matter and that no law was being broken. Men who beat or rape their wives or commit other acts of domestic violence are unlikely to face prosecution in the Russian Federation. One reason for this is that the law does not recognize domestic violence as a distinct crime, and does not even allow officials to give perpetrators a warning through an administrative sentence or a fine. The failure of the state to take measures to protect women from sexual abuse and violence in the home and to prosecute the perpetrators is particularly serious given the widespread reports of increasing domestic violence in Russia in recent years.

You are currently visiting the ACLU online archives. These pages are not updated. For the latest information from the ACLU, go to http://www.aclu.org Fact Sheet on Domestic Violence Basic Facts: Violence against women consists primarily of domestic violence. A recent survey found that 64 percent of women who reported being raped, stalked, or physically assaulted since age 18 had been victimized by intimate partners, compared to 16.2 percent of men who had been raped, stalked, or physically assaulted since age 18. In a recent survey, 25 percent of women, compared to 8 percent of men, said they had been raped and/or physically assaulted by a current or former spouse, cohabiting partner, or date. Women are two to three times more likely than men to report that an intimate partner threw something that could hurt them, or pushed, grabbed, or shoved them. Women are seven to 14 times more likely than men to report that an intimate partner beat them up, choked or tried to drown them, or threatened them with a gun or knife. Lower-income Women: While domestic violence occurs across class lines, low-income women are at a higher risk of being physically assaulted by an intimate partner than are their counterparts with higher socio-economic statuses.
