The first-hand experiences of older women to violence within the home are presented in a non-academic fashion, with older women being the target group. The project aimed to alter how violence against older women was understood and responded to: as a shared social problem rather than one confronting individuals. That violence against women of all ages is hidden and invisible, as well as the lack of understanding by ‘experts’ and their traditional neglect of social variables in analysing violence are also examined, from a gender power relations perspective. The themes emerging from the women’s stories include: the charming-outside-devil-inside husband; recognising violence; how self-esteem is undermined; living in fear; surviving and getting help; deprived of money and home; effects of drinking; violent parents; violence against children – lasting effects; leaving the violence; violence through the generations; carers abused and abusing; the silence of women protects the perpetrator; changing the violent situation; and independence and empowerment. The story sessions themselves engendered a sense of empowerment for some women. | en |
