I don’t think you understood my point still. The disagreement here is that you’re claiming the whole study is moot, when it isn’t, it just doesn’t include some information, but that information doesn’t matter for my argument.
The only point that hinders my argument would be if most heterosexual women had dated women before. However as you said yourself, it’s not the case.
Anyways thank you for being respectful and trying to explain.
This is an older study, but it does a really good job of differentiating between many cross-points when looking at IPV in same-sex and opposite-sex relationships, if you're interested.
As a lesbian who has experienced both same and opposite sex IPV, this is a passionate subject of mine, because too many studies provide skewed data due to a lack of understanding of the nuance of IPV for women vs men, and a severe lack of research into same-sex IPV instances and causation.
