Episode 14: Abuse isn't always physical

Picture someone suffering from domestic violence. Do they have bruises? Is their partner clenching a fist? Are they sitting next to you at work volunteering for overtime because they can’t keep up with their partner’s spending? Domestic violence takes many forms. It isn’t always physical. It isn’t always obvious.  It is always impactful. It is always unacceptable. This episode of The Unfairer Sex unpacks some of the less well known forms of domestic violence like financial and psychological abuse. We talk through how we can identify the symptoms and support each other to take action to quash domestic violence against women and girls. Let’s celebrate the advances we have made with awareness, the Domestic Abuse Act 2021 and next steps with The Unfairer Sex. ***** The Unfairer Sex is not sponsored so, if you liked our show, please show your support by liking, subscribing and sharing on all your favourite social media platforms!
