Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Debate continues over gender differences and similarities in intimate partner violence (IPV). Some argue that men and women are equally likely to be perpetrators of this crime, while others maintain that men are the primary offenders and women are the primary victims. Using police data from a large metropolitan area, this paper explores this issue. Questions asked include: do males and females differ in the frequency of their perpetration of IPV, do they differ in the context of their perpetration of IPV (severity, types of violence used, violence used in self-defense), do they differ in the consequences of their IPV, do the police respond differentially to male and female perpetrators, and are there differences between the quantiative and qualitative police data. Implications of the gender differences/ similiarites in IPV will be discussed.
