Popis: | Attention paid to culture in theories of sexual coercion has been limited. This failure to include culture in these theories implies that culture does not have an important role in sexually coercive behavior. Recent conceptual and empirical work supports the existence of culture-specific models of sexual coercion. Sexual coercion has been characterized in much of the literature as an individual phenomenon. However, cultural norms are influential in collectivist cultural groups. Whereas European American men's sexual coercion is primarily determined by misogynous beliefs, Asian American men's sexual coercion is determined by a combination of misogynous beliefs and cultural considerations. These findings underscore the need to consider cultural context in the development of theoretical models and interventions for sexually coercive behavior. |
