No More Secrets - Violence in Lesbian Relationships (Hardcover): Janice Ristock No More Secrets - Violence in Lesbian Relationships (Hardcover)
Janice Ristock
R4,483 Discovery Miles 44 830 Ships in 12 - 19 working days


Myths: Violence is a male biological trait. When women fight, no one gets seriously hurt. Lesbians don't abuse their spouses. The truth revealed in Janice Ristock's groundbreaking book is that lesbian relationships sometimes do turn violent. Based on interviews with more than one hundred lesbians who have suffered abuse and seventy-five case workers, No More Secrets is the first in-depth account of this startling phenomenon.
Although one in four gay and lesbian couples are affected by domestic violence, the problem has remained hidden for several reasons. By giving voice to the victims, Ristock helps women to address violence by breaking silences, sharing secrets, and naming the forms of abuse.

Not a New Problem - Violence in the Lives of Disabled Women (Paperback): Michelle Owen, Diane Hiebert-Murphy, Janice Ristock Not a New Problem - Violence in the Lives of Disabled Women (Paperback)
Michelle Owen, Diane Hiebert-Murphy, Janice Ristock; Foreword by Emily Ternette
R547 Discovery Miles 5 470 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Violence in the lives of women with disabilities is not a new problem, but it is a problem about which little has been written. This gap in our knowledge needs to be addressed, as women with disabilities are valuable members of our society whose experiences need to be made known. Without such knowledge, political action for social justice and for the prevention of violence is impossible. Contributors to Not a New Problem examine the experiences of Canadian women with disabilities, the need for improved access to services and the ways this violence is exacerbated by and intersects with gender, sexuality, Indigeneity, race, ethnicity and class.
