Results of the survey on woman right's and domestic violence

 In this article, I would like to introduce and analyze three questions'  results in detail, which were particularly impressive.


  First, the question "Have you ever experienced psychological violence?"

 By this question, almost two thirds of all responders answered Yes.


フォームの回答のグラフ。質問のタイトル: Have you ever experienced psychological violence? 。回答数: 26 件の回答。

   This result indicates that the percentage of people who have experiences psychological violence is higher than the percentage of people who are physically violented. When asked specifically from whom they experienced psychological violence, many said from family members, including fathers and mothers.

   This survey convinced us that many people have experienced psychological violence, but that this fact is hidden from the public. We have to try to improve this situation.



   Next question is... "Have you ever heard if the phrase "economic violence"?" 

    To this question, many(80 ％ of all responders) said they did not know about economic violence. In other words, many people think of physical violence when they hear the word, violence

 Unlike the psychological violence, very few people are aware of economic violence. Therefore, I felt that many people needed to be made aware of the existence of economic violence other than physical violence.


   Finally,  many believe that underlying the psychology of people who engage in  violence is the ideology of people who engage in violence is the ideology of disrespect for the opposite gender.

 We would like to eliminate the disrespect for women that underlies people′s thinking and to improve women's rights.


To sum up, we would like to uncover the hidden voices of victims of physical violence as well as victims of violence that is not generally recognized as "violence".

    I think it’s great that you focused on three important questions from your survey. I was especially surprised that so many people answered “yes” to experiencing psychological violence. It shows that this type of violence is very common, even more than physical violence, but often hidden. I also agree that more people need to learn about economic violence. Many people only think of physical harm, so your work helps raise awareness. One suggestion is to explore how physical violence often starts with smaller actions, like controlling money or words. This could help prevent worse situations later.

Woman rights and Domestic violence (Perspective①)

  【perspective①】Introduction to the Position of Victims in Domestic Violence BBC News. (2025, June 24). ''I thought my abusive relationship were normal https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c86jy6q1126o This is written from the perspective of a victim of violence. It details the psychological state of a woman who has been victimized. I have been a victim of domestic violence since I was a child and throughout my life. Because of this, I had low self-esteem. I felt worthless and even had suicidal thoughts. I never noticed any signs that I was having a mental break until I had suicidal thoughts. The signs are very subtle. It may seem romantic, but if we don't learn about abuse it is really hard to understand. In fact, I was a victim of not only physical violence but also economic abuse because I worked for my partner. I would lose my job, money, and we have two children, so it was very difficult for me to leave here. But in reality I was always looked down upon by my husband. I c...

woman rights and domestic violence

  Hello. My name is Sena and my name is Chiharu. I am a university student in Japan, and I am currently studying mainly English language and English literature in detail. We are deepening our discussion on women's rights and domestic violence. The reason why we decided to research this topic is because we believe that in our country, problems related to women's rights and incidents of domestic violence by men against women have been increasing in recent years. We would like to study in detail the current situation in Japan where women are still looked down upon and the psychology of those who commit violence against their loved ones. I would like to update my blog once a week. Please read it. How does domestic violence impact women’s efforts to achieve equal rights? Women who are victims of domestic violence live in constant fear, making it difficult for them to make positive choices about their own lives. This limits their opportunities for work, education, and political parti...
