Sexual assault is defined as any type of forced or coerced sexual contact or behavior that happens without consent. Victims seeking justice and personal safety must report their assaults to police, however few survivors report their victimization. Sexual and gender minorities, inclusive of the LGBTQI2-S population, are at an increased risk for experiencing sexual assault yet the vast majority of empirical research on sexual victimization has been conducted through a hetero-cisnormative lens. Sexual and gender minorities likely have a unique experience of sexual assault compared to heterosexual, cisgender survivors, especially as it relates to their help-seeking behaviors post-assault. Through the use of Sexual and Gender Script Theory, this review explores barriers that sexual and gender minorities may experience when reporting sexual assault to the police, thereby impeding their access to equitable justice. Opportunities for future policy, practice, and research among sexual and gender minorities are presented.
性侵犯被定义为任何未经同意而发生的强迫或胁迫的性接触或行为。寻求正义和个人安全的受害者必须向警方报告他们的攻击,但很少有幸存者报告他们的受害情况。性和性别少数群体,包括 LGBTQI2-S 人群,遭受性侵犯的风险增加,但绝大多数关于性受害的实证研究都是通过异性恋规范的视角进行的。性和性别少数群体在经历性侵犯方面可能与异性恋、顺性别幸存者有独特的体验,尤其是在与他们遭受性侵犯后的求助行为有关。通过使用性和性别脚本理论,本综述探讨了性和性别少数群体在向警方报告性侵犯时可能遇到的障碍,从而阻碍了他们获得公平正义的机会。提出了性和性别少数群体在未来的政策、实践和研究方面的机会。
