Outdated

Most recent source was from 2001. I have applied {{update}}.--Mr. Guye (talk) 01:36, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Mr. Guye, from what I see, this article should be merged with the Intimate partner violence article. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 06:09, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Either that, or the Sexual violence article. That is, if the content is not too redundant to that article. I really see no need for "Sexual violence by intimate partners" to be a standalone article. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 06:11, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

I have a few ideas on what could be added to this article. - Under the headline "domestic violence and sexual abuse", add more information defining what sexual abuse is in terms of domestic violence. I would also add more statistics in order to define this more thoroughly. - Under the headline "incidents by country", add more information in the little paragraph that introduces the graph. - Add a section on famous court cases or examples of domestic violence. - Add a section that includes information about organizations that help individuals deal with domestic and sexual violence. - Add a section talking about modern day law enforcement and their actions towards perpetrators. possible sources...

I think this article is very good but you could explain more the affects of the people in these intimate relationships and what happens after. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lermiller (talk • contribs) 01:59, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Domestic sexual violence, such as forced sex or marital rape, may follow or be part of physical abuse, but is not always the case.

- I think you can restate this sentence so that it isn't a maybe, but a certainty.

In Mexico and the United States, studies estimate that 40–52% of women experiencing physical violence by an intimate partner have also been sexually coerced by that partner.

- How come Mexico and the U.S. the only countries picked?

Sexual violence may occur without physical violence.

- Wide generalization and very broad statements.

In the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, in a representative sample of over 6000 men, 7% reported having sexually and physically abused their wives, 22% reported using sexual violence without physical violence and 17% reported that they had used physical violence alone.

- What does India have to do with the previous sentence? I think this should change or be attended in a paragraph that speaks on both genders.

The graph should contain citations or reliable sources for where they come from.

-Cite the definition

-The domestic violence and sexual abuse section is really vague

-Explain you claim on how "Sexual violence may occur without physical violence"

A lot more can be added, here are some things to think about?

-How can sexual assault never be rape?!?

-What causes the sexual violence?

-How can it be treated?

-Any organizations that help?

-Any cases on it that are notorious?

-How do more patriarchal countries correlate with the amount of rapes? Any significance?

-How do women deal with this?

-How does this affect the kids of married women who are raped? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gutier k1 (talk • contribs) 01:00, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

- You should edit how the domestic violence and sexual abuse section because this should be a general explanation of what goes on and not focused on statistics of two countries (U.S. and Mexico). In the end this is about sexual violence by intimate partners around the world. Therefore I would focus on the differences between men and women in sexually violent relationships.

- Also you should list the other forms of domestic violence like honor killings or acid violence which can be found in the link I attached above as well

- You should also mention the issues that come after domestic violence -- the mental, physical problems women and men go through.

- Also you should list more countries such as countries in the Middle East -- The list seems to be limited and very generic.

In your article, you only discuss the intimate partner violence against women. While they are the majority of victims of intimate partner violence, I would suggest talking about trans and homosexual victims of intimate partner violence. I would also discuss how men are the least likely to report intimate partner violence because they are usually afraid of being seen as not manly. Troll j1 (talk) 00:59, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Literature Pertaining to Sexual Violence from an Intimate Partner

Roxane Gay's memoir Hunger talks about issues os sexual violence and how it affect her life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crispy.Pepper.Cat (talk • contribs) 19:08, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

Changed the title of the article, edited information in the introduction, and added new sections

I changed the title of the article to reflect the most common term used in the literature. I also made changes to the introduction in order to provide a more accurate description. Furthermore, I added two new headings and a few sub-headings to enrich the article by having a broader scope of the issue.BSC20 (talk) 01:18, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

BSC20, we don't bold headings. See MOS:Headings. So I fixed that. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 03:56, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

@BSC20: While articles can be moved to new titles without discussion, as the topic here is one that falls under a broad category that can be controversial, and because your reason is that the WP:COMMONNAME has changed from the past title, a discussion (with those sources you infer exist) should have happened to decide whether to move the article. I won't move it back, but a lesson for next time. Kingsif (talk) 14:59, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Kingsif, well, the previous title "Sexual violence by intimate partners" was more descriptive than anything. When one Googles it, it can be seen that the new title comes up the most often.

No need to ping me if you reply. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 18:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

That's why I haven't reverted it, but most sex and abuse topics come under general sanctions so any BOLD actions must be weighed, not done frivolously. It was this user's first edit by the looks of it, and their WikiEd instructor is AWOL, so I felt explaining that would be helpful. Kingsif (talk) 18:59, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Kingsif, yeah, I understand. I'm also not keen on editors moving controversial articles without discussion. A number of times I've pointed them to what WP:Requested moves states. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 19:11, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Sorry about that, thank you for your advice!BSC20 (talk) 21:19, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Inaccurate statistic

"The percentage of women who are victims of physical and/or sexual violence by an intimate partner is around seventy."

That statistic seemed outrageous to me, so I checked the source. The source cited for this paragraph is source 8, "Facts and figures: Ending violence against women". UN Women. Retrieved 2020-10-09.

I've looked through that source, and I can't find anything resembling that stat.

The source states "Globally, an estimated 736 million women—almost one in three—have been subjected to physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence, non-partner sexual violence, or both at least once in their life (30 per cent of women aged 15 and older)." This is more in line with what I'd heard.

I'm correcting the number to "around thirty," but I thought I should mention something about what I'm doing here. I've never edited Wikipedia before, and I'm not sure what the proper procedure is. 2600:1700:3820:2EE0:8947:A45E:C3A6:86 (talk) 08:56, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
