背景：尽管性虐待在加勒比地区很普遍，但从加勒比妇女的角度探讨性虐待问题的研究却很少。虽然性暴力是普遍存在的，但要解决这一问题，就需要深入了解其产生的具体背景，以及性别与其他压迫和边缘化根源的交叉点。它还呼吁认识到，亲密伴侣暴力侵害妇女行为与暴力侵害女孩行为不是分开的，而是相互关联的，这不仅是因为两者都是基于性别的暴力形式，而且因为两者共同说明了其历史、持续和累积的影响。 研究方法：对来自巴巴多斯和格林纳达的35名年龄在18至60岁之间的妇女进行了深入的密集访谈，她们在以下情况下遭受过亲密伴侣暴力：怀孕期间（n = 15）、作为残疾妇女（n = 8）、作为艾滋病毒感染者（n = 12）。访谈进行了数字记录、转录和专题分析。 结果：参与者在他们的关系中经历了多种形式的暴力，通常是同时发生的。其中21名妇女曾遭受性暴力，其中19人在儿童时期曾遭受性虐待;这些经历被认为是相互关联的，并因社区内报告的高度接受暴力而得到加强。妇女受到其伴侣不同形式的控制，这取决于与她们的情况有关的流行话语（怀孕、残疾或艾滋病毒阳性）;“脆弱”是一个人作为独立自主的人的代理机构受到限制，几乎没有外部帮助的同义词。 结论：该研究确定了一系列明确的性行为，每一种行为都助长了问题的不同层面：儿童早期性行为的普遍存在与儿童性虐待的普遍存在有关;儿童性虐待普遍存在，主要是因为暴力侵害妇女和女孩行为的正常化和社会接受;“文化”常态反过来又助长了助长对妇女的性暴力的态度，处于特别脆弱境况的妇女面临更多的风险。需要采取综合政策，将这些问题作为相互关联的问题加以处理。
Background: There is a dearth of research which explores sexual abuse from perspectives of Caribbean women, despite its high prevalence in the region. While sexual violence is universal, tackling it requires a deep understanding of the contextual specificities in which it arises and of the intersections of gender with other sources of oppression and marginalisation. It also calls for the recognition that intimate partner violence against women is not separate from, but linked to violence against girls, not only because both are forms of gender-based violence but because together they speak to its historical, persistent and accumulative effects. Methods: In-depth intensive interviews were carried out with 35 women from Barbados and Grenada, aged 18–60 years who had experienced intimate partner violence under one of the following circumstances: during pregnancy (n = 15), as a woman a with disability (n = 8), as a woman living with HIV (n = 12). Interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed and thematically analyzed. Results: The participants experienced multiple forms of violence within their relationships, often concurrently. Twenty-one of the women had been subject to sexual violence and of these, 19 had experienced sexual abuse as children; these experiences were viewed as interconnected and bolstered by the high level of violence-acceptance reported within communities. Women were subject to different forms of control by their partners depending upon prevailing discourses related to their circumstances (as pregnant, disabled, or HIV positive); being ‘vulnerable’ was synonymous with having one’s agency as an independent, autonomous person constrained and little external help was available. Conclusion: The study identified a clear chain of sexual behaviors, each of which fuel different layers of the problem: the prevalence of early sexualization of children is associated with the prevalence of child sexual abuse; child sexual abuse is pervasive in large part, because of the normalisation and social acceptance of violence against women and girls; “cultural” normalcy, in turn, fuels attitudes which contribute to sexual violence against women and women in especially vulnerable circumstances face additional risks. Integrated policy, which tackles these as interconnected issues is called for.
