Notes: | Women sexually assaulted by intimate partners are particularly reluctant to report this crime and seek legal involvement. Even though silent women face the risk of re-victimisation, they might perceive non-reporting as a more advantageous decision. This article discusses the personal, cultural and situational factors that dissuade women from reporting. |
