Researchers heard LGBT victims' harrowing accounts of violence, rape and psychological abuse.
Gay and bisexual men being abused by romantic partners is the subject of a research brief being presented to the Scottish governmentGay and bisexual men are being abused by romantic partners but face multiple barriers to support, according to recent studies.
Originally from Mexico, he has lived in Scotland since 2013 and has dealt with a number of gay and bisexual clients who have suffered a wide range of traumatic experiences in relationships. "The drugs were too strong so he was unable to be fully conscious," said Dr Rodriguez-Dorans. "He didn't want to continue in the party."Dr Rodriguez-Dorans said because his client was an immigrant, he did not think police would believe him if he reported the incident.
The abuser initially refused to move out of the man's flat and sent him threatening messages - which the man showed to officers. Many are targeted towards women, which he said gives the narrative that women are "more prone to be victims" of abuse.But perhaps most pervasively, many of Dr Rodriguez-Dorans' cases are affected by misconceptions on masculinity.
Similar experiences of abuse among gay and bisexual men have been demonstrated in two pieces of research by Glasgow Caledonian University, which will be presented to the Scottish government's LGBTI+ cross-party group later this month. It also said men with big muscular bodies worried that "appearing 'acceptably' masculine" might make others doubt that they were victims of IPV.Lead academics Prof Jamie Frankis and Dr Steven Maxwell have called the problem an "urgent public health issue".
