ABSTRACT

Sexual assault is defined as any type of forced or coerced sexual contact or behavior that happens without consent. Victims seeking justice and personal safety must report their assaults to police, however few survivors report their victimization. Sexual and gender minorities, inclusive of the LGBTQI2-S population, are at an increased risk for experiencing sexual assault yet the vast majority of empirical research on sexual victimization has been conducted through a hetero-cisnormative lens. Sexual and gender minorities likely have a unique experience of sexual assault compared to heterosexual, cisgender survivors, especially as it relates to their help-seeking behaviors post-assault. Through the use of Sexual and Gender Script Theory, this review explores barriers that sexual and gender minorities may experience when reporting sexual assault to the police, thereby impeding their access to equitable justice. Opportunities for future policy, practice, and research among sexual and gender minorities are presented.

性和性别少数群体:向警方报告性侵犯

摘要

性侵犯被定义为未经同意而发生的任何类型的强迫或胁迫性接触或行为。寻求正义和人身安全的受害者必须向警方报告他们的袭击事件,但很少有幸存者报告他们的受害情况。性和性别少数群体,包括 LGBTQI2-S 人群,遭受性侵犯的风险增加,但绝大多数关于性受害的实证研究都是通过异性恋规范镜头进行的。与异性恋、顺性别幸存者相比,性和性别少数群体可能有独特的性侵犯经历,特别是因为这与他们在袭击后寻求帮助的行为有关。通过使用性和性别脚本理论,本次审查探讨了性少数群体和性别少数群体在向警方举报性侵犯时可能遇到的障碍,从而阻碍他们获得公平正义。介绍了性和性别少数群体未来政策、实践和研究的机会。
