Estimates indicate that anywhere from 25% to 50% of lesbians and gay men report physical violence in a committed relationship. In addition, at least one study indicated that 12% of gay men and 31% of lesbians have been coerced sexually by an intimate partner. Although illegal, such incidents are unlikely to be reported to law enforcement nor is the victim/survivor likely to seek help through social service agencies. Dr. Susan C. Turell, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Houston-Clear Lake, in cooperation with the Montrose Counseling Center, the Houston Area Women's Center, and the Montgomery County Women's Center, is conducting a survey to determine the scope of this problem in the Houston community. This survey is designed to be the first step toward more education and discussion of the problem within the gay and lesbian community, more victim/survivors seeking services to end the violence, and better service provision by providers. If you would be willing to participate in filling out a 20 minute survey, or would like more information, please contact Dr. Turell at 283-3332. You may also pick up a survey at the Montrose Counseling Center and Inklings Bookshop. All answers are confidential and anonymous.
