A realidade da violência doméstica e familiar: um estudo dos padrões e perfis das vítimas do sexo feminino do Disque 100 e Ligue 180 no ano de 2023

Abstract

Domestic and family violence is one of the major challenges that society continues to face, with the number of reported cases in Brazil increasing year after year. But what is the profile of women most affected by this violence? This text aims to analyze the characteristics of Brazilian women who are most frequently violated in their homes or by people in their social circles, using data from Disque 100 and Ligue 180 in 2023. This work is characterized as a cross-sectional study, which included two analyses: descriptive and inferential, utilizing Pearson's chi-square test. The tests aimed to validate whether the data would support the proposed study. The results show the profiles of the most violated women, who are predominantly Black and Brown, with low education levels and low income. They also characterize the relationships between victims and aggressors, which vary by age group, identifying parents, spouses, ex-spouses, and children as the main aggressors. Finally, the characteristics of the suspects are presented, who are mostly men of Black and Brown race/color and aged between 18 and 59 years. This opens up space for a new political and social perspective on how the continuation of domestic and family violence can affect the personal or social development of individuals from these profiles.
