This cross-sectional study describes the prevalence and context of violence by sexual partners against female sex workers (FSWs, N = 589) in Andhra Pradesh and its association with alcohol use by FSWs and abusive partners. In all, 84% of FSWs reported alcohol use; 65% reported lifetime physical abuse by a sexual partner. Most abused women suffered abuse from multiple partners, often triggered by inebriation or FSW's defiance. In multivariate logistic regressions, frequency of FSW's alcohol use was associated with abuse by clients and primary partner, whereas partner's alcohol use was only significant for abuse by primary partner, not clients.
这项横断面研究描述了印度安得拉邦女性性工作者（FSWs，N = 589）遭受性伴侣暴力的患病率和背景情况，以及这种暴力与女性性工作者及其施暴伴侣饮酒行为之间的关联。总体而言，84%的女性性工作者报告有饮酒行为；65%报告曾遭受性伴侣的身体虐待。大多数受虐女性遭受多个伴侣的虐待，虐待行为通常由醉酒或女性性工作者的反抗引发。在多因素逻辑回归分析中，女性性工作者饮酒的频率与客户及主要伴侣的虐待行为相关，而伴侣的饮酒行为仅对主要伴侣的虐待行为有显著影响，对客户的虐待行为则无显著影响。
