Peer Review from Halle Phillips

[edit]

I love this topic. Could you add more from other resources? I think you have a great foundation!!

Gender

[edit]

I like the topics that you have. I was thinking there can be more information on gender violence in North America. I feel this should be highlighted more but other than that it is coming together good job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by DiaEdie (talkcontribs) 17:40, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

POV fork

[edit]

This article was a WP:POV fork, which is I why redirected it. The term gender violence isn't typically used, while gender-based violence is. And I see that this article was initially titled "Gender-based violence" until it was moved. Well, "gender-based violence" is synonymous with "violence against women", as made clear in the Violence against women article. This "Gender violence" article even stated that "the term is often used synonymously with "violence against women." But it's not just "often used synonymously." Being about women and girls is what is meant by the term, as made clear in the "Definition" section of the Violence against women article that goes over objection to the term referring to women/girls. And other than the lead of the "Gender violence" article stating "gendered violence can and does occur for people of all genders including men, women, male and female children and gender diverse individuals" (an unsourced statement), and the "Africa" section mentioning boys (supported by a source that doesn't use the term "gender violence" or "gender-based violence"), the article was almost exclusively about women and/or girls as victims. And that is because the literature is. The sources in this article were either specifically about violence against women and girls or specifically about sexual violence, or specifically about something else (like female genital mutilation).
