Summary:Young women who have sex with women (YWSW) are at high risk of intimate partner violence (IPV), but little is known about the links between childhood and adolescent relationships and whether they differ by sexual orientation. Here, an abstract of an article by Muzzey et al describing links between childhood and adolescent relationships among YWSW with histories of IPV, comparing those with a sexual minority (SM) identity and without SM identity to identify potential differences in victimization patterns which may inform interventions to improve the health of YWSW is presented.
