Notes:	This article proposes that invalidation is a pervasive manifestation of gender relations asexpressed through strategies of minimisation, disbelief and denial. Invalidation is embeddedwithin interpersonal and institutionalised arrangements and interactions. It is a constituteelement of gender-based violence as well as a socio-political condition that enables gender-based violence. Invalidation serves to inscribe gender relations upon the bodies of womenthrough the mental and physical health deficits of the gender-based violence that it enablesand facilitates, as well as through the denial of testimonial legitimacy and the consequentwithholding of resources, support and services.
