Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a particular type of interpersonal violence, in which violence is performed between individuals involved in an intimate relationship. Johnson developed a typology in which he differentiates common couple violence (CCV) from intimate terrorism (IT). We led a descriptive review of the cases of men treated at the victimology unit of the forensic department of Nancy for IPV-related abuse.
We retrospectively investigated our database to extract every file of male patient treated at the victimology unit of the forensic department of Nancy (France) from 2014 to 2019 for IPV-related abuse. We studied several parameters relating to the protagonists and their relationship, the violence endured, and the statements made during the forensic consultation. An attempt to perform Johnson's typology was made.
We had a total of 226 consultations. The age of the patients ranged from 18 to 88 years old. Almost all patients experienced physical violence. Psychological violence was noted in 138 files. Concerning Johnson's typology, we identified 92 cases consistent with the definition of CCV and 46 cases compatible with IT.
Male victims of IPV are now backed by an ever-growing corpus of studies that sheds an opportune light upon this challenging topic. Sadly, too many remain discredited and unaccounted for. We believe that escaping a gender-opposing conception in favor of a global understanding of this phenomenon would be of benefit to both men and women.
亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）是一种特殊类型的人际暴力，其中暴力发生在涉及亲密关系的个人之间。约翰逊提出了一种类型学，将常见的夫妻暴力（CCV）与亲密恐怖主义（IT）区分开来。我们对在南希法医部门受害者学部门因与 IPV 相关的虐待而接受治疗的男性病例进行了描述性回顾。
我们回顾性地调查了我们的数据库，以提取 2014 年至 2019 年期间在法国南希法医部门受害者学部门因与 IPV 相关的虐待而接受治疗的每位男性患者的档案。我们研究了与主角及其关系、所经历的暴力以及法医咨询期间的陈述有关的几个参数。尝试进行了约翰逊的类型学。
我们共有 226 次咨询。患者年龄从 18 岁到 88 岁不等。几乎所有患者都经历过身体暴力。138 份档案中记录了心理暴力。关于约翰逊的类型学，我们确定了 92 例符合 CCV 定义的病例和 46 例符合 IT 的病例。
现在，越来越多的研究支持 IPV 的男性受害者，这些研究恰当地揭示了这个具有挑战性的话题。可悲的是，太多人仍然被诋毁和忽视。我们相信，摆脱性别对立的观念，从全局理解这种现象，将对男性和女性都有益。
