Disabled Women and Domestic Violence: Responding to the Experiences of Survivors

I think that the domestic violence thing, in a way, kind of misleads disabled women because you always think of a man and a woman married or in a partnership. He hits her. But actually it's far more complex than that …. It's big, it's so big and I think it's uncomfortable for non-disabled people to face up to (Domestic violence survivor, cited p. 35).
