Document Summary
Appeal to salvation ethic: rooted in women"s desire to be of service to others, particular husbands, women want to save their man, common for those dealing with alcohol and drug addicted husbands, assume responsibility for husband"s problem, 2. Denial of the victimizer: woman blames the abuse on some external force/circumstance, some stress causes their partner to behave this way, deny their husband"s intent to harm them, 3. Denial of injury: refusal to acknowledge an injury, continue on with life"s responsibilities/work/childcare/cleaning and push the episode in the back of their minds, normality of everyday life overrides memory of the attack, 4. Denial of victimization: blame themselves for the violence, removing the responsibility of husband. Dr. lina samuel: some women felt the episode of the attack could"ve been avoided if their own behaviour had been different, 5. Limited language skills: language skills and job opportunities go hand-in-hand, can"t find employment, therefore dependent on husband, 2.
