dc.description.notes"Despite half a century of research on both sexual violence and elder abuse, the<br/ >intersection between the two remains largely unexplored. Using theoretical lenses of<br/ >feminist criminology and critical feminist gerontology this article explores the<br/ >intersection between age and sexual violence drawing on interviews with 23 practitioners<br/ >supporting older survivors (aged 60 and over). They reported physical and emotional<br/ >effects of sexual violence leading to limited lifestyles, disengagement from social<br/ >networks and reliance on pathogenic coping strategies. Provision of effective support<br/ >was complicated by challenges associated with ageing bodies and the social stigma<br/ >associated with both sexual victimhood and older age. Additional challenges lay in<br/ >supporting older male survivors and those living with dementia. The article ends by<br/ >discussing implications for practice and an agenda for future research."<br/ ><br/ >Open access, see: http://dro.dur.ac.uk/22386/1/22386.pdfen
