“…Somewhat fortunately, I was in a position where several criminology postgraduates had already switched to this format. One of my colleagues completed her Master of Arts thesis on young women's perceptions of procedural justice during police contact using semistructured Zoom interviews (Lennox, 2021). Her project had a similar theoretical framework to mine.…”

“…She also noted that "meeting on Zoom meant participants had more autonomy over the interviews and interview process" (Lennox, 2021, p.47). For the young women she spoke with, the ability to control where they were, whether their camera was on or off, and having the ability to wear headphones made them feel safer (as reflected by detailed disclosures of sensitive events) and lessened the power imbalance in the research dynamic (Lennox, 2021). I, too, ended up having a positive experience with Zoom interviewing; all of my participants were very familiar with Zoom, were comfortable interacting on the platform, and appreciated the flexibility it gave them to participate.…”

Death By A Thousand Cuts: Gender Microaggressions and Gendered Violence in Aotearoa New Zealand

<p><strong>Gendered violence is a prevalent social issue in New Zealand. Feminist scholars have long argued that patriarchy, a socially constructed hierarchal system of oppression that positions men above women (in its most basic form), is the root cause of gendered violence (Brownmiller, 1975; Gavey, 2019a; Hunnicutt, 2009; Jordan, 2004, 2022a; Kelly, 1988; Vera-Gray, 2016). Patriarchy has been subject to challenge and resistance but this system, and the violence inherent within it, persists. My research centres women’s experiences of gender microaggressions: subtle verbal, behavioural, or environmental actions that reinforce sexism (Capodilupo et al., 2010; Sue, 2010a; Sue & Spanierman, 2020). I argue that this subtle form of gendered harm needs to be understood within a broader framework of violence and patriarchy. Guided by the ideas of critical criminology and feminist scholarship, I use a mixed methodological approach to examine women’s experiences of gender microaggressions. For the first stage of the project, I conducted an online survey that 790 women completed – I redesigned a pre-existing quantitative measure of gender microaggressions, adding qualitative reflection sections to uphold the principles of feminist consciousness-raising. For the second stage, I conducted 26 one-on-one semi-structured interviews with women to talk more in-depth about their experiences of gender microaggressions and their impact, both personally and on New Zealand society more broadly. Findings suggest that gender microaggressions are a common experience for women across New Zealand. Microaggressions typically manifest in ways that make women feel objectified, underestimated, belittled, and silenced. In alignment with current literature, data suggests that microaggressive harm is cumulative. Women discussed feeling pressured and restricted by binary gender expectations describing gender microaggressions as a tool used to “put [women] in their place”. In addition, gender microaggressions were understood by women as existing within a broader spectrum or structure of violence. Microaggressions were perceived as threats to safety and are implicated in the gendered nature of risk and responsibility in society. The social acceptability of subtle gendered violence such as gender microaggressions has far reaching implications for our understanding of and resistance to patriarchal dominance.</strong></p>
