Intimate partner violence (IPV) has traditionally been framed as a gendered issue, with men depicted as perpetrators and women as victims. This perspective, however, overlooks the complexities of IPV, particularly the victimization of men, which remains underreported due to cultural and societal expectations. While statistics indicate that women disproportionately suffer from IPV, male victimization is more common than acknowledged, particularly among African men in the diaspora. Cultural norms that equate masculinity with dominance and emotional resilience deter African men from reporting abuse, worsening their vulnerability. Racial and legal dynamics further complicate their experiences, as societal biases often assume that Black men are naturally aggressive, discouraging them from seeking help. Additionally, institutional and legal frameworks predominantly cater to female victims, leaving male victims with limited support options. This chapter explores the stereotypes that account for male victimization and structural barriers that prevent men from accessing support, recognizing how research into male victimization research contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of IPV and promotes more effective interventions.
