Fusion is a fairly new term used to describe a leading cause in terms of domestic violence in terms of how it is dangerous. Both partners attempt to become closer and stay together despite the overwhelming odds of splitting up and this creates the fear and desperation that if one partner leaves they become filled with “murderous rage” and destructive and this brings more consequences to the relationship. (Women & Therapy) Each partner sees distance or change as a threat to their partner and this creates an air of violence that becomes increased. The whole point of staying together is to “defy societal odds” and in turn just hurts both partners than helps. Dependency is a factor to Domestic Violence, there needs to be a balance between separateness and connection. In 1986 it was found by research that the dependency of one in a same-sex relationship led to conflict and that separation increased domestic violence. (Women & Therapy) It was hypothesized from data gathered by researchers that Lesbians who reported using violent tactics when in conflict with their partner were more likely to be dependent on their partner.  Self-esteem is another factor in domestic violence whether it have to do with the abuser or the victim. Most times the abuser has lower self-esteem and takes their insecurities out on their partner, this is not always the case but those that reported being the abuser identified with having lower self-esteem. (Women & Therapy)

The reasoning for violence in Lesbian Relationships are similar to to those that are in abusive heterosexual relationships although they don’t have the same power dynamics and internalized misogyny that those relationships have,control is still a large factor in understanding why Domestic violence occurs in same-sex relationships. (Women & Therapy) The abusers in the relationships believe that controlling the relationship is an effective way of achieving what they want out of their relationship. Dependency of one partner on the other occurs in abusive relationships because it gives the abuser more power over the relationship itself and it dictates the action of the partner that lacks the power, and loss of that power or control may also lead to the increase of domestic violence. (Women & Therapy) Research indicated that in 1991 it was reported that in a non-random self selected sample of lesbian participants 51% of those women reported having experienced some form of abuse by a female partner and 30% of the women in the study admitted to being the abuser in a past relationship. Sexual coercion is also seen as part of domestic violence and a study done by researchers found that 31% of participants in a study had fallen victim to having been forced or coerced into having sex by their current or most recent partner, and this was researched in 1989. There is in fact insufficient evidence to indicate the actual number of lesbians who are victims of Domestic violence each year. (Women & Therapy) Every relationship that experiences domestic violence has similar patterns in how the abuser and the victim go about the relationship. There are many factors that play into why they occur and they are not that different from that of a heterosexual relationship or between two gay men. The only difference would be in that it is a relationship between two women. This video attempted to portray the abuse that can and does occur between Lesbians and that the abuse is dangerous and can be extremely harmful to the safety of the victim. There are no gender roles that need to be involved in order for abuse to occur. Domestic violence done by women and men follow different patterns in terms of how the victims are impacted. When women are the abuser in the relationship their violence is less frequent than that of men and the impact of their violence isn’t as severe as when men do it. Domestic violence between same-sex couples and heterosexual couples are similar and happen close to the same rate. The NCADV states that in a study done they recognized a rate of 2%5-33% of domestic violence happening among same-sex couples. Lesbian battering is not too different from that of heterosexual battering the only added factor would be internalized homophobia and the fear of outward homophobia as well as the lack of resources for victims to turn to. This not only proves but shows society that in reality Lesbian battering and domestic abuse is no different than the typical ideals they have when thinking about domestic violence. The patterns are the same what occurs and how it occurs is similar. More importantly the “why does this occur?” question is the same making this something that can be studied and/or prevented.

Dalším podnikem, kterým bych svůj blog rád oživil, je PageFive. O co jde? PageFive je designové knihkupectví, které se nachází hned naprosti Bistru 8 z minulého článku ve Veverkově ulici. Specializuje se na knihy o typografii, designu, grafice a grafickém designu. Tolik pro náruživé čtenáře; ochuzení nebudou ani ti, kteří čtení knih příliš nehoví. V nabídce jsou totiž i magazíny a nespočet uměleckých plakátů tisknutých na matný papír. Narazíte zde na publikace ze všech možných koutů světa a můžete se v nich dozvědět plno zajímavých a obecně hůře dostupných informací a zajímavostí. Při poslední návštěvě mě například velmi zaujala kniha Rastislava Vaňka o vzniku grafických cedulí a nápisů pro pražské metro. Vaněk je přirozeně autorem nejen této knihy, dal vzniknout i výše zmíněným cedulím. Ty byly i hlavním tématem letošního mezinárodního bienále grafického designu v Brně (fotky z něj najdete mezi staršími články). Protože jsem se svou přítelkyní bienále navštívil a metrem jezdím prakticky denně, knížka mě zaujala a stále přemýšlím o její koupi. Až někdy budete mít dlouhou chvíli, nebo po východu z Bistra 8 zatouží vaše umělecké já po novém zážitku, rozhodně do knihkupectví zavítejte. Nejen že je to pohlazení pro oko, ale také skvělý způsob, jak zabít klidně i celé odpoledne (případně zredukovat objem peněženky).
