“…Even when folks do not live traditional or normative manifestations of gender, they understand the norms and expectations of gender and how masculinity and femininity should be performed (Lindley et al, 2022). More importantly, they are also aware of the risks associated with living outside the norms, and they are aptly able to engage in behaviors in a way that calculates the risks associated with their gender performance, and understand how their behavior will or will not be classified (Kattari et al, 2021;Lindley et al, 2022;West & Zimmerman, 1987;Zamantakis, 2020).…”

This study examined how gender shapes sexual interactions and pleasure outcomes. We highlight varying expectations people have in regard to sex by combining questions about orgasm frequency and sexual pleasure. Our analysis was driven from a sample of 907 survey responses from cis women, cis men, trans women, trans men, non-binary, and intersex millennial respondents, 324 of which had gender-diverse sexual histories. The findings built upon previous literature about the orgasm gap by including those with underrepresented gender identities and expanding our conceptualization of gender’s role in the gap beyond gender identity. Qualitative results indicated that individuals change their behavior based on their partner’s gender and follow strong gendered scripts. Participants also relied upon heteronormative scripts and cis normative roles to set their interactions for the sexual encounter. Our findings support previous research on how gender identity impacts pleasure outcomes and has implications for how we might make gender progress in the arena of sexuality.

“…The survey revealed that approximately 22% of married women in Rwanda have encountered domestic violence, with 14% reporting instances of sexual violence by their partners. Compared to regional statistics, these numbers underscore the impact of cultural, historical, and socioeconomic factors in sub-Saharan Africa (20)(21)(22)(23).…”

Background Domestic violence affects approximately one-third of women globally and presents unique challenges in Rwanda. This study examined the link between domestic violence and household conflicts, focusing on infertility, unintended pregnancies, and the impact of premarital pregnancies. The survey uses data from the 2019/20 Rwanda Demographic and Health Survey and addresses the influence of Rwandan cultural norms, the prevalence of child marriage, and societal attitudes toward violence. Methodology This study analysed data from the 2019-20 Rwanda Demographic and Health Survey using a two-stage sampling process. Regression discontinuity design (RDD) and logistic regression were used to evaluate variables such as domestic violence incidence and age, as well as control variables such as education, marital status, and occupational status. Results The findings indicate increased risks of domestic violence as women approaching the legal marriage age of 21 years face increased risks of domestic violence, with 35.1% greater likelihoods of physical violence and 14.8% greater odds of sexual violence. Polygamous marriages significantly increase the risk of sexual violence by 26.5%. Early forced sexual encounters intensify the likelihood of physical and sexual violence by 67.5% and 129.7%, respectively. Conclusion This study highlights the increased vulnerability to physical and sexual violence linked to early sexual encounters and polygamous marriage. These findings, diverging from global trends, underscore the necessity of employing Rwanda-specific strategies. Moreover, to effectively address domestic violence, it is important to consider cultural dynamics, socioeconomic status, and matrimonial education, including sex education and bargaining power, for both parties.

This study investigated multivariate relations between indicators of lifetime adversity and past year risky substance use reported by an Internet-recruited sample of transgender emerging adults from the United States (N = 248, age M = 22.61 years). Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) documented the canonical correlation between canonical variates in this sample (.362), as well as the amount of shared variance (13.1%) between set of variables representing lifetime adversity and past year risky substance use. Examination of the standardized canonical coefficients and structure coefficients highlighted the important contributions of (a) past year drug use and negative consequences of substance use to the synthetic criterion variable and (b) lifetime intimate partner violence to the synthetic predictor variable. Information generated in this study about how specific observed variables contributed to canonical variates may be used to tailor trauma-informed selected interventions in clinical socialwork practice with transgender emerging adults who report substance use problems.
