Category:Violence against women

This category is for articles on the topic of sexual or gender-based violence against women or girls.

The scope of this category includes sexual violence against women, sexual and gender-based violence against women in conflict situations, domestic violence against women (including honor killings), and violence against trans women. Organizations, literature, events, books, etc for which the topic of gender-based violence against women is defining are also on-topic.

This category should not include violence where women happen to be the victims. Rather, it should only include acts of violence where the gender of the victim is an important determinant in them being selected for violence, when there is a gendered nature to the violence itself, or when it otherwise fits the definition in the literature of sexual or gender-based violence.
