Disentangling How Sexual Stigma and Masculinity Contribute to Intimate Partner Violence Among Sexual Minority Men

Informed by Herek et al.'s (2009) model of sexual stigma, we explored how sexual minority's men experiences of disempowerment and conformity to masculine norms intersect to influence intimate partner violence. Specifically, this study examined the complex relationships between intimate partner violence victimization and perpetration, as moderated by sexual stigma and masculinity among sexual minority men.
