Intersectional inequalities in younger women's experiences of physical intimate partner violence across communities in Bangladesh.

Background: Physical intimate partner violence (IPV) risk looms large for younger women in Bangladesh. We are, however, yet to know the association between their intersectional social locations and IPV across communities. Drawing on intersectionality theory's tenet that interacting systems of power, oppressions, and privileges work together, we hypothesized that (1) younger, lower educated or poor women's physical IPV experiences will be exacerbated in disadvantaged communities; and conversely, (2) younger, higher educated or nonpoor women's physical IPV experiences will be ameliorated in advantaged communities.

Intersectional community correlates of married women's experiences of male intimate partner physical violence in Bangladesh: a cross-sectional study.

Background: In Bangladesh, little is known about community-level factors shaping married women's experiences of male intimate partner physical violence (MIPPV); it is also unknown if these factors interact with each other. We examined the (1) association between four residential community characteristics defined by the attributes of ever married women in those communities-younger age, lower education, higher participation in earning an income and poverty; and (2) two-way interactions between these community-level MIPPV correlates.

Methods: We used a cross-sectional sample comprising 14 557 currently married women who were living with their spouses from 911 Bangladeshi communities.

Currently married women's present experiences of male intimate partner physical violence in Bangladesh: An intercategorical intersectional approach.

In Bangladesh, one in five currently married women (CMW) presently experience male intimate partner physical violence (MIPPV). While previous studies analysed women's individual-level multiple locations-younger age, lower education, income, and poverty in an additive manner, we took an intersectional approach to look at the effects of their multiple intersectional locations on MIPPV. Using McCall's intercategorical intersectional approach, we examine how women's intersectional locations are associated with their odds of experiencing MIPPV.
