Foreword from
CARE International Sri Lanka
In recent months the issue of violence against women has gained needed exposure and attention across
the world. Gender-based violence is a major obstacle to a nation’s development and is a world-wide
phenomenon affecting not just women but society as a whole.
As an international non-government organization that fights poverty by empowering the world’s
poorest women and girls, CARE believes that ensuring socio-economic, cultural and political rights
of women is a fundamental element of CARE’s work across the world. In Sri Lanka, CARE has engaged
in promoting the rights of women and girls and for the last 60 years. During the last decade this work
included innovative and sustainable approaches to addressing the issues of gender-based violence.
The Empowering Men to Engage and Redefine Gender Equality Project (EMERGE), which was started
in October 2010, is a CARE initiative that specifically targets adult and young males of selected
communities for promotion of gender equality and prevention of gender-based violence within existing
CARE project locations of Nawalapitiya, Batticaloa, Polonnaruwa, and Monaragala. As a means of better
understanding and describing the causal factors of violence against women in Sri Lanka, CARE joined
hands with Partners for Prevention (a UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and UNV regional joint programme
for gender-based violence prevention in Asia and the Pacific) in 2011 to conduct a quantitative survey on
men’s knowledge, attitudes and practices toward gender-based violence and gender equality.
This study brings out key risk factors in relation to violence against women, childhood trauma and
men’s own experience of violence. The study also highlights key findings, which have implications for
organizations working in child protection, sexual and reproductive health, men’s health and in youth
programming.
This study highlights the need for more focused and scaled up approaches to engage men in the
discourse of violence against women, as well as the need to transform women’s own attitudes about
violence in diverse forms. CARE is committed to working in partnership with women, communities,
civil society, governments, donors and the private sector to implement these recommendations.
We invite you to use the findings of this study to strengthen your work with children, youth, men and
women to end violence against women and promote gender equality.

Foreword from
Partners for Prevention
Stories of violence against women and girls have been filling the news cycle much of late, most notably
the December gang rape in New Delhi. Although these cases happen every day around the world, they
bring to mind deeper questions about how these things can happen, who is to blame and how we can
stop such things from happening in the future.
The diverse Asia-Pacific region has some of the highest recorded levels of violence against women in
the world, and also some of the lowest. However, despite the many decades of work and millions of
dollars spent we have not seen an overall decrease in the prevalence of violence nationally, regionally
or globally.
Until now, efforts to address violence against women and girls have, for the most part, rightly focused
on improving services and responses to violence — strengthening legislation and the criminal justice
system overall — and improving access and quality of health, legal and social services. But only re-
sponding to the effects of violence has not been enough to end it.
In response, four UN agencies, UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and UNV came together through the joint
programme Partners for Prevention to try to better understand men’s use of violence in order to prevent
it. The UN Multi-country Study on Men and Violence included a survey of more than 10,000 men from
six countries in Asia and the Pacific. Importantly, Sri Lanka was one of those countries, led by CARE.
The Sri Lanka data adds significantly to the diversity and cross-country comparability of the regional
data set.
As importantly, this research represents a unique contribution to the country-specific literature on the
root causes of gender inequality and gender-based violence in Sri Lanka. Because different cultural and
social norms generate unique behaviors and practices, the country-specific evidence generated from
this report will contribute to the formulation of more effective and targeted gender equality strategies,
particularly those engaging boys and men.
The study highlights the need to transform harmful social norms that perpetuate male sexual entitle-
ment or the belief of some men that they have the right to control women and their bodies. We need to
work with young people to nurture healthy attitudes, practices and relationships for a future without
violence and discrimination. We need to change the idea that manhood is defined by being tough.
Alternative versions of manhood that are non-violent, gender equitable and encourage empathy and
respect can become the norm. Finally, we need to protect children from violence and nurture healthy
childhoods by working with parents and caretakers.
This research offers us great hope. It shows us that violence is preventable and if we work together we
can help create a more equitable and peaceful world.

Executive summary
As in many parts of the world, the overwhelming emphasis in both gender studies and gender-based
advocacy in Sri Lanka has been to target women. Recent evidenced-based research highlights the
need and effectiveness of engaging men in reducing prevalence rates of intimate partner violence and
gender-based violence.
In order to bridge the gap in evidence-based studies of masculinities in Sri Lanka, CARE International
Sri Lanka undertook, together with Partners for Prevention (P4P), a UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and
UNV regional joint programme for gender-based violence prevention in Asia and the Pacific, a study on
men’s knowledge, practices and social attitudes toward gender and gender-based violence.
The key research questions of the study were as follows:
•Toobtainvalidestimatesoftheprevalenceandfrequencyofmen’sperpetration(andwomen’s
experiences) of differenttypes of violence against women,as well as men’sviolence against
othermen,withaparticularemphasisonintimatepartnerviolenceandsexualviolence;

atriskforperpetratingintimatepartnerviolenceandsexualviolence;and
•Tobuildevidence-basedpolicyandprogrammeresponsestopreventgender-basedviolencein
SriLanka.
The survey was conducted using a random sampling strategy representative of the four districts under
study — Colombo, Hambantota, Batticoloa and Nuwara Eliya — with 1658 male participants and a
smaller 653 female sample between the ages of 18–49 years.
The study has been implemented using the WHO ethical guidelines for research. The research tools
were based on the WHO Multi-country Study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence and the In-
ternational Men and Gender Equality Survey carried out by Instituto Promundo and the International
Centre for Research on Women. Ethical clearance from the Sri Lanka Medical Association Ethical Re-
view Committee was obtained to conduct the study.
This report aims to provide sufficient information for policymakers and planners to develop data-driven
and evidence-based programmes for the prevention of intimate partner and sexual violence, by analyz-
ing prevailing attitudes and practices of men towards gender relations, focusing on masculinities and
gender-based violence in a variety of contexts and mapping and contextualizing the status of men’s and
family health.
Results
Violence against women is prevalent in Sri Lanka
Thirty-six percent of ever-partnered men reported perpetrating physical and or sexual violence against
a female intimate partner. Six percent of all men perpetrated sexual violence inclusive of rape against
a non-partner woman and 17 percent perpetrated sexual violence inclusive of rape against any women.

Men’s attitudes toward gender-based violence and gender equality
While men’s responses show moderate gender equity in their everyday lives, on the GEM Scale, male
respondents yielded a higher percentage of gender-inequitable attitudes. As an example with regards to
IPV, a majority 74 percent disagreed with the statement that ‘There are times when a woman deserves to
be beaten’, however, a majority of men (64 percent) subscribe to the view that childcare is primarily the
mother’s responsibility, while 57 percent hold the view that women’s primary responsibility is taking
care of the family and housecare. A majority of men also related manhood to dominance and violence,
with 58 percent believing that ‘It is manly to defend the honour of your family even by violent means’.
Women in Sri Lanka also hold gender inequitable attitudes — and often more inequitable than men’s
attitudes — particularly in terms of rape. Two thirds of the female sample (67 percent), as opposed to
55 percent of men, also affirmed that ‘in any rape case, one would have to question whether the victim
is promiscuous or has a bad reputation,’ and 75 percent of women (and 79 percent of men) reported that
‘some women ask to be raped by the way they dress and behave’.
The study points to several contexts, drivers and variables related to male perpetration of physical and
sexual violence against women, as well as against men and boys, many of which are grounded in cultural
attitudes about how to be a man. Risk factors for perpetration include childhood trauma, controlling
behaviour, low empathy, quarrelsomeness and sexual behavior involving multiple sexual partners.
The majority of the sexual violence captured fall within the IPV category inclusive of marital rape.
The key motivation reported by men for sexual violence inclusive of rape was sexual entitlement. Two
thirds of the sample that perpetrated sexual violence including rape, did so for the first time between the
ages of 20 and 29. Almost one third of the men who perpetrated perpetrated sexual violence including
rape did so for the first time between the ages of 15 and 19 years.
The study also reveals that the level of impunity — from families, communities and the law — for sexual
violence including rape is quite high in Sri Lanka. Only 18 percent of men who had perpetrated forced
sexual relations said that they were afraid of being found out. Ninety-seven percent of the sample did
not experience any violent backlash from anyone supporting the victim. Significantly, only 7 percent
of perpetrators had experienced legal consequences (arrested with charges dropped, or arrested and
resulting in a court case or jailed).
Impact of IPV on women’s health
The problem of IPV remained largely underreported by women. Overall, one in three ever-partnered
men (33 percent) reported that they had committed physical and/or sexual violence against an inti-
mate partner in their lifetime. This is supported, but underreported, by 29 percent of ever-partnered
women who reported experiencing such violence. The significant levels of suppression by women of
their feelings of anger, hurt, vulnerability and insecurity following IPV necessarily has an impact on
their mental health. Only 32 percent of female victims of IPV who sought medical aid had reported the
violence at all and, only 10 percent of women victims of IPV or non-partner sexual violence had told
their families about the violence and the trauma they suffered.
Men’s own experiences of violence
Many children, especially boys, experience some form of violence or neglect during childhood.
This comprises not only of child sexual abuse, but also hunger, emotional neglect, public humiliation,
beatings and absentee parents. Of significance is that male respondents who were fathers reported less
time spent with their children either due to gendered norms of parenting, and/or time spent away from
home due to employment/migration. Men who experienced sexual, physical or emotional abuse during
childhood are more likely to perpetrate violence against women in adulthood.
5
The findings on sexual abuse, particularly of boys, warrant urgent attention. Twenty-eight percent of
the male sample reported experiences of child sexual abuse. This is important not only for making
visible the vulnerability of boys to sexual abuse, but also for tracing the impact it has on the process by
which boys can become violent men, often targeting women with violence.
Men’s well-being and health
Economic pressures resulting from inadequate income, lack of economic assets and financial responsi-
bilities as breadwinners and male heads of households were found to be amongst the primary causes of
male stress and lack of well-being. A corresponding moderate level of depression and suicidal thoughts
were found amongst the male sample.
Men’s attitudes toward women’s health and reproductive and sexual health
Regarding reproductive health, while men’s support for their pregnant wives/partners was moderate
to high in terms of accompanying the women to prenatal clinics and mostly refraining from violence
and forced sex during pregnancy, their use of contraception was low, pointing to the fact that men left
it largely to their wives/girlfriends to bear the primary responsibility of planned parenthood.
Both men, even those in high-risk groups, and women reported very low rates of HIV testing (4 percent),
indicating that health-seeking behavior related to HIV remains a low priority for men and women in
Sri Lanka.
Conclusion
The CARE Study highlights for the first time in Sri Lanka an in-depth understanding of male
perspectives, behaviours and attitudes with regards to gender equality and gender-based violence,
drawing responses from the largest male sample analysed so far in the country using rigorous research
methodologies.
The study emphasizes the need to start examining the masculine norms and attitudes that influence
and serve as key drivers and risks for the perpetration of violence against women. The findings also re-
veal the vulnerabilities that men face throughout their life cycles, portraying them as victims of abuse,
which can ultimately contribute toward their perpetration of violence. This displays the importance
of interventions in the form of provision of psychosocial services at an early age from childhood to
adulthood, to break the cycle of violence.
While the report shows the importance of continuing to work with women and girls to reduce violence
against women, the findings reflect that there is a need to work more closely with men in their various
spheres and capacities as individuals, members of family units, their surrounding communities and
societies to deconstruct what it is to be ‘masculine’ from a positive perspective by promoting respect
for gender diversity among youth and positive fatherhood/parenting. Towards this, policies that
support these practices and programmes need to be ratified and introduced into state and non-state
organizations while obtaining the support of key decision makers and influencers in communities.

Introduction
T
herehasbeenlittleworkdoneonmasculinities,bothasafieldofinquiryandsiteofadvocacy,
in Sri Lanka. Amongst the few, but significant, scholarly studies on the subject are those that focus
on the role and construction of masculinities in relation to political and ethnic violence (de Silva 2005;
Bremner 2004; Jeganathan, 1998), sexualities (Miller, 2011; Nichols, 2010; Simpson, 2004; Fernando,
2003), and war, militarism and disability (Gamburd, 2004; Gunawardena, 2010; de Mel, 2007). In the
area of advocacy, amongst the published reports and articles that predominantly highlight the experi-
ences of men in Sri Lanka are those on male sexual minorities and their rights, citizenship, access to
healthcare, representation in the media and risk to HIV/AIDS (Still Human Still Here, 2010; Companion
on a Journey and NAZ Foundation International, 2009; Fernando, 2009-2010). Other reports on male
groups by INGO/NGOs exist but remain classified as internal documents because of safety concerns re-
lated to the respondents, particularly in the context of the criminalization of homosexuality in Sri Lanka
under Section 365A of the Penal Code.
Within evidence-based research on intimate partner violence (IPV) and gender-based violence there
is a growing emphasis, however, on male experiences alongside those of the women (Women’s Health
Committee and WHO, 2011). Yet this dual focus is still at a nascent stage. It is symptomatic of the gap in
the knowledge and analysis of masculinities, for instance, that the significant bibliography cited in the
Review of Research Evidence on Gender-based violence in Sri Lanka (2011) does not have one article or
book that highlights ‘masculinity’ or ‘masculinities’ in its title. While this cited literature does inevita-
bly discuss male behavior and attitudes as they impact on women as victims of violence, it is the absence
of masculinities as a central conceptual framework (which would warrant its inclusion in the titles or
subtitles) that is clearly indicated.
As in many parts of the world, the overwhelming emphasis in both gender studies and gender-based
advocacy in Sri Lanka has been on women. In Sri Lanka, the focus on women drew on developments that
took place in the 1970s onwards inspired by trade union and socio-political movements, international
women’s movements, women’s studies and the growth of State institutions and NGOs working on
women following the 1975 UN International Year of Women and the 1976-85 UN Decade of Women
(Wickramasinghe, 2009, pp.1-30). Significant outcomes of these developments were the establishment of

government bodies, including a Ministry of Women’s Affairs, currently renamed the Ministry of Child
Development and Women’s Affairs, and the National Committee on Women; and policy documents,
such as The Women’s Charter and the National Plan of Action on Women, which focus on women’s
rights. The establishment of both urban and rural women’s NGOs, gender centers, feminist publishing
and a significant body of research and advocacy on legal reform, violence against women (VAW),
women’s reproductive health and women’s rights as human rights also arose from these developments.
This concentration on women remains an important and vital area of activism for public policy
intervention given that women continue to remain marginalized from the political and economic
mainstreams. There is significant anxiety, therefore, felt not only in Sri Lanka but also worldwide, that
whatever gains have been made pertaining to women in the past few decades will be reversed if there is
a turn of focus to men and masculinities (Cleaver, 2002, p.5). There is also the justifiable apprehension
that equating the vulnerabilities of men, whether due to violence and/or marginalization, with those of
women would only serve to reinforce attitudes and behaviours held by men that discriminate against,
or exploit, women.
Yet, as much as these are areas of programmatic concern and need to be carefully thought through
so as not to disadvantage women, the advent and acceptance of the term ‘gender’ itself, and the shifts
that occurred were precisely because of the understanding that women’s lives were relational to those
of men. For instance, the shift in approach from the Women in Development (WID) model of the 1970s
to Gender and Development (GAD) by the 1980s was indicative of a re-thinking of gender equity as
dependent on re-aligning the attitudes and experiences of both men and women. Men were understood
as strategic partners in the goal toward gender equity and, therefore, women’s ‘critical others’ (Chopra,
2007, p.2). But while the term ‘gender’ — first used by scholar-activists in the 1970s such as Ann Oakley
(1972) — took note of how feminization and masculinization occur and provided robust theories on the
subject, it was not until the mid 1990s that, informed by the advances of feminist theory and knowledge,
the significant critical turn to masculinities began to take place.
1.2
Masculinities on stage
Masculinities as a field of study was a significant outcome of feminist studies and activism, informed
by the latter’s focus on patriarchal systems of power that incorporate sets of practices that are both in-
dividually embodied and institutionally embedded (Kimmel, 2002, pp.ix-x). In alliance with feminist
studies, masculinity studies focuses on masculinity as an ideology, and pays attention to the multiple
positions men themselves occupy with some men disadvantaged on the basis of class, caste, ethnicity
or sexuality. Masculinity is not seen, therefore, as monolithic but, rather, shaped by many processes
and intersecting identities or conditions that produce multiple variables amongst different groups,
individuals, institutions and societies (Gardiner, 2002, p.11). Importantly, current masculinity studies
accounts for the fact that masculinity is also gendered and that both men and women have ‘undergone
historical and cultural processes of gender formation that distribute power and privilege unevenly’
(ibid).
The 1994 UN-sponsored International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cairo
marked a watershed in activism around masculinities because of its acknowledgement that men and
masculinities were of importance in the work on gender. Chapter four (c) of the Programme of Action
(www.un.org/popin/icpd2.htm) titled ‘Male responsibilities and participation,’ called for improved
communication between men and women on issues of sexuality and reproductive health, and the un-
derstanding of joint responsibilities and equal partnerships with women in public as well as private lives.
The specific areas targeted for policy and programme intervention were in men’s shared responsibility
in joint parenthood; sexual and reproductive behavior including family planning, prenatal, maternal
and child health; prevention of sexually transmitted diseases including HIV; prevention of unwanted
pregnancies; shared control and contribution to family income, children’s education, health and nutri-
tion; and placing value on children of both sexes (section 4.27). It also called for male responsibility
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
8
in family life to be included in educational material from an early age and special emphasis on the
prevention of male perpetration of violence against women and children (ibid).
The ICPD called for greater male responsibility and participation because ‘men play a key role in
bringing about gender equality since, in most societies, men exercise preponderant power in nearly
every sphere of life’ (ibid). However, evidence from the field was also beginning to suggest that, while
patriarchy and dominant masculinities contribute significantly to the marginalization of women, not
all men are ‘winners’ and that their vulnerabilities due to age, class, race, ethnicity or sexual orientation
merited study (Cleaver, 2002, pp.2-3). Certainly, a wide body of postcolonial scholarship (Fanon, 1967;
Chatterjee, 1989; Sharpe, 1993; McClintock, 1995; Sinha, 1995; Connell, 1995 and 2005) had stressed the
subjugated status of native colonized men, including a link between their sense of disempowerment in
the public realm and their regulation of women in the private, domestic sphere (Fanon, 1967; Chatterjee,
1989). Other studies, whether on the politics of race, globalization, labour markets, ethnic conflict or mi-
gration, also began to foreground men who were vulnerable to violence and denied access to economic
benefits, aid-flows and citizenship rights because of their race/ethnicity, class, caste, religion or sexual
orientation (Gilroy, 2000; Thompson, 1963 and 1968; Guha, 1982; Das, 1990; Connell, 1995 and 2005).
This awareness was reflected in some donor policy programmes (Oxfam, SIDA) of the mid 1990s that
defined gender equity as promoting the human dignity of both men and women (Cleaver, 2002, p.2).
This was an acknowledgement that the status of men warranted further study and advocacy not only
because of men’s access to power, or the differences between men themselves, but also because of how
contemporary transnational crosscurrents of globalization, neoliberalism, urbanization, migration and
armed conflict were profoundly changing men’s lives.
1.3
The CARE project
In order to meet address the gap in evidence-based studies of masculinities in Sri Lanka, CARE Sri Lanka
undertook, together with Partners for Prevention (P4P), a UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and UNV regional
joint programme for gender-based violence prevent on in Asia and the Pacific, this study on knowledge,
practices and social attitudes towards gender and gender-based violence in Colombo, Hambantota,
Nuwara Eliya and Batticoloa. This is part of P4P’s study called The UN Multi-country Study on Men
and Violence undertaken in seven countries, which explores gender-based violence and masculinities to
inform evidence-based violence prevention interventions. Both CARE Sri Lanka, under its Empowering
Men to Engage and Redefine Gender Equality (EMERGE) project, and P4P were particularly interested
in gathering data on men in the districts under study. This focus on men and masculinities grew out of
the recognition that whatever progress had been made to empower women socially, economically and
politically was not sustainable without the full and meaningful participation of men, and that men and
women need to ‘negotiate equal and equitable terms and conditions between them within the public
and private domains.’ Towards this goal, the privileges, vulnerabilities and resistance of men merited
attention so that innovative programmes and sustainable processes could be designed to bring both
men and women together to promote equity and equality.
The key research questions of the study were as follows:

•Howdowemeasuretheimpactofprogramming/implementation?
The questionnaire implemented for the study adopted the Gender Equitable Men (GEM) Scale developed
by Horizons and Promundo (Pulerwitz and Barker, 2008) to assess men’s attitudes to gender equitable
norms. The other questions were based on the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES)
model, developed by the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) and Instituto Promundo
(www.icrw.org/node/765); the WHO Multi-country Study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence
against Women; and the South Africa Study of Men, Masculinities, Violence and HIV, carried out by
the Medical Research Council. The result of this integration was a comprehensive household question-
naire on men’s attitudes and practices on a wide variety of topics related to gender equality, including
attitudes and practices toward women’s dress, mobility, associational freedom; male and female sexual
health, and gender-based violence. The questionnaire also addressed women’s opinions and their re-
ports of men’s practices. Questions were also asked to ascertain men’s attitudes and practices related to
joint parenting, financial contribution to households and control of household economic resources. An
important section of the survey was on men’s own health and well-being, including sexuality, child-
hood sexual abuse and trauma, participation in transactional sex, weapons ownership and their use of
violence against women.
A key programing objective of CARE Sri Lanka’s EMERGE project is to engage men in transforming
attitudes and behaviours that will lead to gender equity and equality and an appreciation, in general, of
diversity in all its forms. Protecting men’s self-confidence, self-esteem and sense of agency are impor-
tant factors in this process of transformation, which at the same time requires a critical interrogation
of their sense of entitlement over women and dominance over ‘weaker’ men. Michael Messner (1997
cited in Holmgren, Egeberg and Hearne, 2009, p.405) forwarded a model of men’s positioning and
organizing around gender equality triangulated on the recognition by men of: a) the institutional and
structural privileges they enjoy in society; b) the costs of masculinity; and c) the differences and in-
equalities amongst men themselves. Once recognition of the apexes of this triangle occurred, Messner
argued that it would be possible to map, as well as develop programmes around: a) men’s supportive
roles toward gender equity; b) policy interventions on men’s rights to joint parenthood, psychosocial
services and well-being; and c) men’s respect of other men who differ by virtue of ethnicity, class, caste,
disability and sexual orientation. Underwriting all of the above is the understanding that masculinity
and femininity are not fixed, but shaped by history, society and culture, and that they change over
time. Such change means that: men and women cannot be biologically essentialized (i.e., all men are
not essentially violent); that dominant masculinity is constructed in relation to other men as well as
women, thereby making for a ‘hierarchy’ of masculinities; and that all of these elements point to the
fact that masculinity is diverse and there are different models of masculinities that must be mapped,
and harnessed, or transformed as the case may be.
In order to capture the objectives and research questions of the study, as well as the programmatic
interests of CARE Sri Lanka, this report is divided into six parts that form individual, but interrelated
chapters. Chapter one, entitled ‘Why masculinities?, contextualizes the study while Chapter two lays
out its methodology. Chapter three on ‘Masculinity and gender relations: Attitudes and practices,’
highlights and analyzes the data from the districts in the study. Chapter four, entitled ‘Producing
force: Male violence against women and men,’ focuses on masculinities and gender-based violence in a
variety of contexts, and Chapter five on ‘Masculinity, well-being and family health’ maps and contex-
tualizes the status of men’s and family health. Finally, chapter six discusses the legal, public policy and
programming implications of the study.

Introduction
T
hisstudyemployedaquantitativeresearchapproachtoexaminetheknowledge,attitudesand
practices of men and women in Sri Lanka on issues pertaining to gender and gender-based violence.
It was based on a large population-based household survey (with 1658 male participants and a smaller
653 female sample
1
), and adhering to international and national research and ethical standards,
allowing district (cluster) comparability. The survey was conducted using a random sampling strategy
representative of the four districts under study — Colombo, Hambantota, Batticoloa and Nuwara Eliya.
A sample of men and women aged 18–49 years were carefully surveyed using a structured questionnaire
as the principal instrument of data collection. Given the sensitivity of the topics surveyed, the research
employed various innovative methods (such as the use of personal digital assistants, or PDAs) in order
to enhance the quality of the research while ensuring maximum confidentiality of the respondents.
CARE also invited international and multiple local partners as advisors on the project.
The Sri Lanka study on attitudes, practices and gender-based violence in Colombo, Hambantota, Nuwara
Eliya and Batticoloa is part of a multi-country research project — The UN Multi-country Study on Men
and Violence — on violence and masculinities, coordinated by Partners for Prevention (P4P), a UNDP,
UNFPA, UN Women and UNV regional joint programme for gender-based violence prevention in Asia
and the Pacific. The UN Multi-country Study on Men and Violence methodology is based on rigorous
scientific standards for conducting research on violence against women. The UN Multi-country Study
on Men and Violence applies international best practices related to sample design, questionnaires,
interviewer training and survey administration that have been shown in other countries to be effective
in reducing under-reporting of violence. The Sri Lanka study followed the methodological and ethical
standards from the international protocol.
1 The focus of the study was on men’s use of violence against women and masculinities and therefore a smaller sample of women was taken
to compare findings. The female sample on its own is not designed to provide national data or prevalence rates of violence victimization.

Design and setting
Many organizations and individuals contributed to the design of this study. CARE was the coordinat-
ing institution as well as main financial sponsor of the study. P4P, based in Bangkok, provided all of the
research tools, technical support and limited funding assistance for the project. The questionnaire was
adapted by the Sri Lankan research team and translated by Social Indicator (SI), the survey research
unit of the Centre for Policy Alternatives, which also implemented the survey in the field.
2.3
Study objectives
The study aimed at producing new knowledge on the theme of masculinity and gender-based violence
in Sri Lanka while contributing to P4P’s regional cross-national study, the UN Multi-country Study
on Men and Violence. This underpins the key research questions described in chapter one. The specific
objectives of the survey are as follows:
•Toobtainvalidestimatesoftheprevalenceandfrequencyofmen’sperpetration(andwomen’s

Ethical clearance
The project proposal and the entire study design including the research protocols, as well as the male
and female questionnaires, were presented to the Ethics Committee of the Sri Lanka Medical Associa-
tion (SLMA), which gave its approval for the research instrument and the research methodology. A pilot
study of the questionnaire was implemented under the P4P protocol and as a pre-requisite for SLMA
approval.
2.5
Questionnaire design
The study used a male and female questionnaire that covered the same themes from different
perspectives.
2
For example, while men were asked about their perpetration of gender-based violence,
women were asked about their experiences of various forms of gender-based violence.
This study used the survey instruments of the UN Multi-country Study on Men and Violence, however,
the principal researchers, Social Indicator and the research team adapted the questionnaires to the
Sri Lankan context. The original core questionnaires were designed by a team of globally distinguished
gender-research experts and drew on several internationally recognized tools including the South
Africa Study of Men, Masculinities, Violence and HIV, carried out by the South African Medical Research
Council (MRC); the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES), carried out by carried out
by Instituto Promundo and the International Centre for Research on Women (ICRW); and the WHO

Multi-country Study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence against Women. The questionnaires
were the product of a long process of discussions and consultations, which involved reviewing existing
literature and numerous instruments, and incorporating input from technical experts as well as national
partners. The core regional questionnaires were pretested in English on a convenience sample of men
and women using cognitive qualitative interviews. In addition, the questionnaires had already been
used and tested in other sites of the UN Multi-country Study on Men and Violence, such as Bangladesh
and China.
In order to ensure comparability with the data from other countries in P4P’s regional study, the major-
ity of the questions in the Sri Lankan questionnaires remained the same, although some modifications
were made to capture Sri Lankan specificities as well as to avoid ethical and practical risks. For exam-
ple, the wording of the violence questions was kept the same (except in certain questions where there
was no direct equivalent in Sinhala and Tamil) in order to ensure comparability of rates of reported
violence across countries. The scales — such as the childhood trauma scale, the Gender Equitable Men
(GEM) scale, the depression scale and the empathy scale — were also unchanged because they had been
carefully designed and validated for their psychometric properties. However, some Sri Lanka-specific
questions and coded responses were added, for example, regarding the tsunami, attitudes towards
women’s employment, and sexualized ragging.

The questionnaires were specifically designed in this order to maximize disclosure from both men
and women on their experiences and to mitigate negative consequences for respondents following the
interview, particularly in the female survey. The adapted questionnaires were translated into Sinhala
and Tamil languages by SI. The focus of the translations was on using words and expressions that are
widely understood in the study sites. The translations were checked by research assistants as well as
outside groups representing varying age groups from both urban and rural areas to verify the accuracy
and applicability of the translations. The questionnaires were pretested (both cognitive qualitative pre-
testing and quantitative field testing with a small convenience sample) in the field. The research team
then made some further final amendments to the questionnaires after the full pilot study.
2.5.1
Measurement of violence, childhood trauma,
and gender attitudes
Men’s use and women’s experiences of violence were measured using a series of behavior-specific ques-
tions based on the WHO Multi-country Study questionnaire and the South Africa MRC Study of Men,
Masculinities, Violence and HIV, as outlined in the table below (Table 2.2). International experience
collecting data on violence against women shows that asking behaviour-specific questions (rather than
using words like violence and abuse), and giving respondents multiple opportunities to disclose such
behaviour yields the most accurate results. Respondents who answered in the affirmative for each act
were asked about the frequency with which it had occurred. At the end of each series of questions — on
emotional, economic, physical and sexual violence — respondents were asked if any of the acts had oc-
curred within the past 12 months, to collect information on current prevalence rates.
The childhood trauma scale, which is an internationally recognized scale, includes a series of 15 ques-
tions (Sri Lanka added three questions on sexual abuse) that fall into four broad areas: physical abuse,
sexual abuse, neglect, emotional abuse and physical hardship. All respondents were asked if the follow-
ing statements had happened to them in the following frequencies before they were 18 years old — never,
sometimes, often or very often. A numerical scale was developed based on these responses ranging from
lowest childhood trauma (18) to the highest (72).
This study drew upon items from two different sources for measuring men’s attitudes toward gender
and violence against women. One was the Gender-Equitable Men (GEM) Scale developed by Population
Council and Instituto Promundo and used in India, Brazil and more than 15 other countries to date.
These attitudinal questions used in diverse settings have consistently shown high rates of internal reli-
ability (Pulerwitz and Barker, 2008). The other important source was the South Africa Study of Men,
Masculinities, Violence and HIV conducted by the South Africa MRC Jewkes, 2009 cited in Barker, et
al., 2011). A series of statements about gender roles were read out to the study participants and they were
asked whether they strongly agree, agree, disagree or strongly disagree with the statements. For the
purpose of the analysis all the responses were coded in a way so that agreeing or strongly agreeing with
the statements implied gender inequitable attitudes. These questions are detailed in chapter three of
this report.

Sampling
The survey was conducted in four selected districts — Colombo, Hambantota, Nuwara Eliya and Bat-
ticaloa. These are the districts in which CARE has ongoing projects. In the Colombo district the survey
was carried out in urban localities while in the rest of the three districts the survey was conducted in
rural localities. Taking into consideration the P4P research design criteria — one urban cluster and one
rural cluster — as well as CARE programming concerns, the survey was limited to four district clusters.
Within each district cluster, we used a multi-stage stratified random sample to select the sampling vil-
lages. We used the electoral registry as the sample frame for this survey since it provides a very efficient
sample frame for sample selection. Within each selected district, the number of electorates was chosen
randomly and from each selected electorate the required number of polling booths was chosen to imple-
ment the survey. Using the electoral lists, two households were chosen randomly in each selected polling
booth as two starting points for field researchers to begin their random walk to select 15 households for
respondents. In this way, 30 households were approached in each polling booth (often coinciding with
a village), starting from two separate locations chosen randomly. Within each selected household an
individual was chosen as the respondent using a random method. If there was more than one eligible
member in that selected household, the last birthday method — choosing the person who celebrated his/
her birthday most recently — was used to select the respondent for the survey.
Given the sensitivity of the questions, male and female interviews were conducted in different polling
booths. Within an electorate, the total number of polling booths selected was divided on a 2:1 ratio
between male and female interviews. Therefore, within an electorate, male interviews were conducted
in eight polling booths and female interviews were conducted in four different polling booths.
The following table shows the individual-level response rate by gender and by site. The response rate
for women was higher than for men, as it was significantly more difficult to find men at home and
available for interview. This has been a common issue in the other countries where the study was con-
ducted (icddr,b, 2011). The response rate was also lower in Colombo compared to the more rural sites,
which is also a common pattern in population-based surveys — respondents from urban and higher
socio-economic areas tend to be more reluctant to agree to be interviewed and let interviewers into their
homes, perhaps in part because of security concerns (WHO, 2005).

Under this sampling design, the findings of the survey can be generalized to its sample population:
men and women between the ages of 18 and 49 years living in the four study districts. Even though the
survey provides valuable insights into the knowledge, attitudes and practices of men and women on
issues of gender, masculinity and gender-based violence, these specific findings cannot be generalized
to the total Sri Lankan population. The findings of the male survey are subject to +/- 3 percent error
margin and female findings are subject to +/- 6 percent error margin.

Field research
This study employed special field research techniques in order to ensure the quality of the data, con-
fidentiality and safety of the respondents. With the assistance of P4P, small handheld computers, or
PDAs, were used for the data collection in the survey. The use of PDAs provided multiple advantages
and, at the same time, posed additional challenges to the study. The PDAs ensured the confidential-
ity of the respondents as they were able to respond to the questions themselves without sharing their
answers with anyone, including the field researchers. Therefore, even though field researchers selected
and met with each respondent, the interviews were conducted very much in a self-administered man-
ner. This self-administration removed the issues of interviewer fatigue and interviewer bias that can
affect face-to-face interviews. Self-administration, particularly of section eight of the male survey, also
enabled male respondents to answer sensitive questions in privacy. For the benefit of the less literate
respondents, the PDAs also provided an audio option where respondents could listen to the questions
and answer options accordingly. In addition, the privacy enabled by the PDAs helped respondents an-
swer the questionnaires without input or interference from others in the household, which is otherwise
challenging particularly in Sri Lankan rural settings. As data from the PDAs was directly uploaded
to a server, there was no need for data entry and there was no need for respondents or interviewers to
learn complex skip patterns, as these were automatically programmed into the PDAs. Both of these
factors likely reduced data error. Unlike in face-to-face interviews, it took additional time to complete
one interview as the speed of the interview depended on the respondent’s capacity to read and answer
the questions on the PDA.
SI coordinated the field research of the survey. A total of 70 field researchers from all three ethnic
groups (Sinhala, Tamil and Muslim) were employed to conduct the fieldwork across the four districts.
The field team comprised 51 men and 19 women. Almost all of them possessed university undergradu-
ate degrees as their minimum educational qualification and most of them have been working with SI
for several years as field researchers. A seven-day training session was conducted in Colombo for the
field researchers by SI with the participation of P4P, CARE and the principal researchers. This training
focused mainly on four areas: i) the concepts of gender and masculinity, ii) the questionnaires, iii) han-
dling the PDAs and iv) field techniques and research ethics. In addition to the in-house training, field
researchers were given on-site training. Two researchers from P4P participated as expert trainers and
they accompanied field researchers during the pilot interviews that were conducted following the in-
house training. On the basis of the pilot, P4P and CARE decided to further fine tune the questionnaire in
order to enhance the quality of the field research. While the fieldwork was ongoing SI conducted regular
de-briefings with the field teams.
Every respondent was interviewed by a field researcher from his/her respective ethnic community to
help respondents feel comfortable communicating with their interviewer. A total of 12 field supervisors
were employed to manage and supervise each field team. Field researchers made at least three visits
to each household to attempt to locate a respondent before recording a respondent as not contactable.
As the interviews took an average of two hours each field researcher only managed to conduct two to
three interviews per day. Once the field research in one sample area was complete, the field supervisors
uploaded the data in each PDA to the P4P database using wireless internet.

Ethics and safety standards
3
There are a number of ethical considerations that need to be taken into account when conducting re-
search on violence against women or male on male violence. The WHO stipulates the prime importance
of confidentiality and safety; the need to ensure that the research does not cause the participant to
undergo further harm (including not causing the participant further traumatization); the importance
of ensuring that the participant is informed of available sources of help; and the need for the interview-
ers to respect the interviewee’s decisions and choices.
2.8.1
Individual consent
At the start of all interviews, participants were informed of the purpose and nature of the study and
ensured of confidentiality, through the Participants Information Form. Given the sensitivity of the
questions, the field researchers obtained the verbal consent of the participants to conduct the interview
and then recorded that the consent procedure had been administered, and noted whether or not per-
mission to conduct the interview had been granted.
As part of the consent procedure, the participant was informed that the data collected would be held in
strict confidence. Participants were forewarned that the survey included questions on highly personal
and sensitive topics that may be difficult to talk about. Respondents were also informed of their freedom
to terminate the interview at any point, and to skip any questions that they did not wish to respond to.
The participants received an information leaflet presenting the study with the contact details of CARE,
and sources of support (existing government health, legal, social services and NGOs) in their local areas
for a range of problems that may occur following the interviews.
2.8.2
Voluntary participation
Participation in the study was on a voluntary basis. No inducements or financial payments were made
to the participants.
2.9
Data analysis
After the data was uploaded to a server from the PDAs, P4P conducted the first round of data cleaning
and created new variables for analysis, providing CARE and SI with a set of completed data tables.
The Sri Lankan research team conducted further data analysis using SPSS (software used for statistical
analysis). The written analysis in this report draws on all of the above.
As it was envisaged at the outset, this set of data can provide valuable baseline data for future surveys
and will assist in capturing social changes in terms of gender and masculinity in Sri Lanka. As much as
it provides comparison across ‘time’, this dataset also allows us to compare societies across ‘space.’ For
example, since this study is a part of a larger regional study, it allows us to understand the knowledge,
attitudes and practices of Sri Lankans in comparison to other societies in the Asia-Pacific region. In
addition, as we have allocated large samples to each district cluster, this survey data allows us to gain
comparative understanding in terms of geography and locality within Sri Lanka.

Research methodology
19
The survey instrument used multiple methods to measure public opinion, attitudes and practices;
namely, dichotomous answer categories, scales, multiple responses and interval/ratio scales. In order to
capture complex concepts, the survey instrument provided detailed question batteries with the aim of
constructing composite indexes in the data analysis stage. Most of the questions in the male and female
questionnaires are directly comparable. This allowed us to understand the responses of one gender
group in relation to the other. In this context, this data set is not only useful for scholarly inquiry but
also facilitates serious advanced data analysis techniques. However, it should be noted that the survey
method is intrinsically positivist — and therefore may not capture the full discursivity of gender and
sexuality. Furthermore, the structured form of the questionnaire may foreclose the capturing of more
nuanced individual and social experiences that would be gained from qualitative research methods.
This report primarily uses descriptive statistics for its analysis. However, in the case of comparisons,
necessary statistics (p-values of chi square or test or t-test) were tested to confirm the significance of
the difference. Adjusted odds ratios were used in order to examine the magnitude of the associations
between variables. The report adopts a gender, cultural and social studies approach in this analysis.

Introduction
G
enderisunderstoodassociallyandculturallyconstructed,encompassingbehaviours,roles,
responsibilities, rights and expectations that distinguish men from women around which the social
classifications of ‘masculinity’ or ‘femininity’ also form (Bhasin, 2000, pp.1-2). These practices and
expectations are historically shaped, have changed over time and override biology because it is possible
for a man to be ‘feminine’ and a woman to be ‘masculine’ not because of their sex, but due to behaviour
and ways of self-representation (Connell, 2005, pp.68-69). Moreover, masculinity and femininity are
constructed along axes on which transsexuals, bisexuals, intersex and transgendered people also per-
form ‘maleness’ or ‘femaleness’ to a lesser or greater extent as the case may be.
The practices of masculinity and femininity are inculcated in us from an early age.
4
In South Asia, girls
are generally disciplined into being modest, decorous, caring and obedient; while boys are raised to be
strong, courageous, protective, rational and self-confident (Bhasin, 2000, p6). Even as they fulfill their
roles as participants in the formal or informal economies, women thereby come to value and defend
their roles in the domestic sphere as nurturers, mothers and dutiful wives, while men assume the role
of primary householder, take on responsibilities related to both nuclear and extended families, and
become the opinion or policymakers in the corporate and public spheres.
The data gathered from the CARE study points to a significant prevalence of prescribed gender norms
within society. Yet it also provides evidence that men subscribe to gender equity in certain areas.
As measured on the GEM Scale,
5
two thirds of the male sample (67 percent) refuted gender inequitable
statements relating to gender norms and roles in society at large, and two thirds of the same sample
(67 percent) disagreed with gender inequitable statements designed to assess individual views on rela-
tions between men and women. This supports what scholars (Chopra, Osella and Osella, 2004, pp.14-15;
Walle, 2004, pp.107-108) have pointed to as the limited usefulness, and therefore applicability, of the
concept of hegemonic or dominant masculinity itself. Its initial usefulness was in providing us with a
way to distinguish between structurally supported and socially accepted forms of hegemonic, domi-
nant male behaviour on the one hand, and those that are marginal, subordinate and lacking in power,
on the other. It also enables us to discern how dominant masculinity is reliant on other subject positions
such as race, age, ethnicity, sexuality, class and caste for its hold on power. However, to think of men
only in terms of dominant or subordinate is to encourage a polarity with hegemonic masculinity at one
end of the pole, and marginal/subaltern masculinities at the other end, with nothing in between. It also
fosters the idea of hegemonic masculinity as monolithic.
Recent studies on masculinities have shown, on the other hand, that there are multiple forms or styles
of dominance, as well as many standards and ethical principles on masculinity in societies (de Neve,
2004). De Neve (2004, p.63), for instance, draws attention to the fact that each society has plural ideals
of masculinity that are ‘recognized and embodied to varying extents by different men.’ This alerts
us to the fact that men do not behave the same way everywhere and all the time. Rather, they ‘enact
masculinities in a flexible manner and…draw on a range of ideals’ (de Neeve, 2004, p.65) available to
them. It is possible, therefore, to view the data from the CARE study in line with such analyses, as there
are times when male respondents display highly controlling behaviours relating to women, and at other
times are supportive and respectful of women. Masculinity is, thereby, constituted by its ‘aspects’ or
‘components’ that have to be studied in their particular social contexts and locations (de Neeve, 2004,
p.92), as well as the temporal and generational settings in which they occur.
4 School text books are primary sites of gender construction. In Sri Lankan schools, gender is first introduced as a topic to school children in
grade six, under the subject ‘Life Competencies and Citizenship Education’ (Educational Publications Dept., 2011). At the start of the text
book (p.1) the nuclear family is drawn as father, mother, son and daughter; with the father and son taller than the mother and daugh-
ter. Stereotypical gender roles are also normed through statements such as ‘My father’s wife is my mother. She looks after us,’ and ‘My
mother’s husband is my father. He is a clerical officer’ (p.4).
5 The tabulation was made according to the GEM Scale which is described later in the chapter.

Attitudes: Gender norms, gender relations and
intimate partner violence
The GEM Scale, which was originally developed from studies of low-income males in Rio de Janeiro and
has since been tested in numerous countries around the world, examines several key items comprising
a variety of attitudinal statements designed to assess male and female views on gender norms.
6
Based
on this scale, a gender-equitable man is categorized as one who:
•seeksrelationshipswithwomenbasedonequality,respectandintimacyratherthanconquest;
•seekstobeinvolvedinhouseholddutiesandchildcare,reflectingacceptanceoffinancialand
care-givingresponsibilitiestowardschildrenandthehousehold;
•assumes some responsibility for sexually transmitted infection preventionand reproductive
healthintheirrelationships;
•opposesviolenceagainstwomenunderallcircumstances;and
•opposeshomophobiaandviolenceagainsthomosexuals.
For the CARE Sri Lanka study, the GEM Scale was adapted to include 11 items to assess the views of the
male and female respondents regarding gender roles, gender relations, sexuality and violence against
women in society at large. A further 10 questions were incorporated to specifically assess men and
women’s individual attitudes to relations between men and women.
The following table (Table 3.1) provides the findings of male and female attitudes to gender roles, includ-
ing masculine and feminine norms, as assessed on the GEM Scale used in the CARE study.

58.2 66.2

This data makes clear that a significant majority of men (64 percent) subscribe to the view that child-
care is primarily the mother’s responsibility, while 57 percent hold the view that women’s primary
responsibility is that of family and taking care of the home. A majority of men also related manhood to
dominance and violence, with 58 percent believing that ‘It is manly to defend the honour of your family
even by violent means,’ and 57 percent agreeing that ‘To be a man you need to be tough.’ A significant
majority of men (70 percent) also accepted masculinity as bringing with it household responsibilities
that entailed providing for the family.
When it came to reproduction, however, men showed higher gender equity because only a quarter of
the male sample (25 percent) agreed with the statement ‘A real man produces a male child.’ This indi-
cates that fathering girl children is not perceived by the men as a threat to their masculinity. This is in
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
24
contrast to the 42 percent of female respondents who responded that real manhood means producing
a male child, indicating the pressure that women place on men to father male children. In line with
dominant masculinity’s alliance with heterosexuality, however, both male (67 percent) and female
(63 percent) respondents believed that it would be shameful to have a homosexual son (see Table 3.2).
Regarding intimate partner violence (IPV), including sexual violence, a moderate to high level of gender
equity was expressed by the male respondents. A majority 74 percent disagreed with the statement
that ‘There are times when a woman deserves to be beaten,’ while 59 percent refuted the view that
‘A woman should tolerate violence in order to keep her family together.’ Seventy-five percent of men
also disagreed with the view that ‘women should accept teasing of a sexual nature because it is harm-
less’ and 68 percent refuted the statement that ‘teasing becomes harmful to women only when there is
physical contact.’
Even if the above figures on male attitudes to IPV and VAW indicate over-reporting by men who want
to be ‘politically correct,’ the high rates of disagreement with gender inequitable statements related to
IPV and VAW including sexual harassment shows that men are aware of, and recognize, what the ideal,
ethical standard on violence against women should be. This provides an opportunity and a space within
which to work toward change in men whose violence is as harmful to themselves as well as to women.
Yet, as will be discussed in chapter four on male violence against women and other men, it is also the
case that societal attitudes often mitigate against men’s willingness — or even necessity — to change.
Take for instance the significant contrast in the percentage of males who agreed that a woman should
tolerate violence in order to keep the family together (41 percent), in comparison to the much lower per-
centage of men (26 percent) who agreed with the statement that there are times a woman deserves to be
beaten. This points to how when the family unit comes into the equation, the cultural and ideological
value placed on the cohesion of the family excuses IPV and thereby absolves men for violence against
women. Also noteworthy is that although almost three quarters of the male sample disagreed that there
are times a woman deserved to be beaten, only 15 percent of men had participated in community or
workplace activities on violence against women. This points to the lack of commitment on the part
of employers and community leaders to mainstream such programs and make them compulsory for
employees and members of the community. Initiating change in men and preventing violence against
women require, therefore, accounting for ‘multiple, interconnected factors at the society, community,
family and individual levels’ (Fulu and Jewkes, 2010, p.15).
Male attitudes to victims of rape, however, showed less gender equity (see Table 3.2). Fifty-five percent
of men agreed with the statement ‘I think that in any rape case, one would have to question whether the
victim is promiscuous or has a bad reputation.’ Moreover, a significant 79 percent of males agreed with
the statement ‘I think that some women ask to be raped by the way they dress and behave.’ Reasons
that underwrite these attitudes and the risk factors that increase the propensity of male perpetration of
sexual violence are discussed in detail in chapter four.
Data from the CARE study also shows attitudes that indicate a propensity amongst its male respond-
ents toward medium to strong control over women particularly relating to marital and sexual rela-
tions, women’s dress and mobility. A high proportion of men (78 percent) subscribed to the view that a
woman should obey her husband, with Colombo (92 percent) and Hambantota (97 percent) recording
the highest percentages. Fifty-eight percent of all men also agreed with the view that ‘a woman cannot
refuse to have sex with her husband.’ These attitudes are reflected in men’s actual controlling behavior
over their intimate partners. For example, 63 percent of men reported that when they want sex they
expect their partners to agree. Moreover, 55 percent of men reported that they won’t let their partner
wear certain things; 57 percent of them noted that they tell their female partners who they can spend
time with; and 55 percent reported that they want to know where their female partner is all of the time.

Male attitudes were more gender equitable on reproductive issues, equal wages, children’s education,
women’s associations and entry into politics. Sixty-eight percent of men disagreed that ‘it is a woman’s
responsibility to avoid getting pregnant’ pointing, by and large, to an acceptance by men of their own
role in planned parenthood, while 87 percent agreed that women are as competent as men and should
be paid equally for their labour. A significant 84 percent of men disagreed with the view that sons
should be more educated than daughters, signaling their commitment to children’s education in general
irrespective of gender. Sixty-four percent of men also supported their wives or girlfriends being active in
women’s societies;
7
70 percent of men agreed with the statement that more women should be in public
decision making roles; and 62 percent of men reported that they support the greater participation of
women in coming forward at elections.
7 Women’s community based organizations (CBOs) are very common particularly in rural areas in Sri Lanka, have a large women’s
membership, and are a primary source of micro-credit for women (Leitan & Withanachchi, 2012)
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter

3.3
Producing masculinity: Women’s consensus
Chopra, Osella and Osella (2004, p.13) note that women may ‘act as agents with regard to men’ and
shape masculinities ‘by supporting certain components, condemning or remaining neutral on others,
and outrightly denying manhood to some men.’ The CARE study not only provides evidence that this
is the case, but also points to the areas (or components of masculinity) that women actively encourage,
condemn or remain neutral on — which, in effect, privileges the status quo. As measured on the GEM
Scale, the higher rate at which the female respondents agreed with gender inequitable statements than
men indicates the extent to which women encourage and reinforce gender norms that link women to
household duties and childcare, and accept men as patriarchal heads of households.
As illustrated in Table 3.1, 67 percent of female respondents (compared to 57 percent of men) agreed that
a woman’s most important role is to take care of her home and cook for her family, and 83 percent of
women (compared to 64 percent of men) were of the view that changing nappies, bathing and feeding
children is the mother’s responsibility. An equal number of women and men (57 percent) believed that
‘To be a man you need to be tough’ and 43 percent of women (the male response was 25 percent) declared
that ‘A real man produces a male child.’ A significant 74 percent of women (compared with 70 percent
of men) agreed with the statement ‘To be a man means providing for your family and your extended
family,’ while 66 percent of women (and 58 percent of men) affirmed that ‘It is manly to defend the
honour of your family even by violent means.’
Some of these attitudes foreclose men’s equal partnership relating to childcare and household duties.
Take for instance the 83 percent of females (compared to 64 percent of males) who believed that feeding,
bathing and changing nappies of children were women’s responsibilities, pointing to a matriarchal
consensus that when it comes to childcare (which cannot be reduced to the biologically determined
function of breastfeeding but also includes infant and child minding, etc.), women accepted more
responsibility than the men endowed upon them, thereby normalizing the lack of joint parenting in
infant and primary care. This was supported by anecdotal evidence of a male interviewed for this study
who complained that even when he wanted to bathe his infant daughter, he was not permitted to do so
by his wife and mother-in-law who saw this as their area of expertise.
8
Evidence from the CARE study
did indicate, however, that men spend more time with older children. As table 3.3 shows, 86 percent of
male respondents stated that they play or engage in activities with their children, 66 percent reported
that they talk to children about personal matters and 74 percent of men stated that they help their
school-going children with homework.

Similarly, with regard to IPV and sexual violence, the responses of the female participants reflect an
equal or deeper acceptance than men of social and cultural attitudes that discriminate against women.
Thirty-eight percent of women (compared to 27 percent of men) agreed with the view that there are
times when a woman deserves to be beaten, and 58 percent of women (the corresponding men’s figure
was 41 percent) believed that a woman should tolerate violence in order keep the family together. As
measured on the GEM Scale, a similar proportion of women (21 percent) and men (25 percent) agreed
with the statement that ‘Women should accept teasing even of a sexual nature because it is harmless.’
Men and women’s agreement with the statement ‘Teasing becomes harmful to women only when there
is physical contact,’ was also comparable, with 34 percent of women and 32 percent of men agreeing.
Women also hold gender-inequitable attitudes in regard to rape myths (see Table 3.2), with a slightly
higher percentage of women (32 percent) than men (30 percent) agreeing that ‘when a woman is raped,
she is usually to blame for getting herself into that situation.’ Moreover, both women (44 percent) and
men (43 percent) agreed with the statement that ‘if a woman doesn’t physically fight back, it’s not rape’
in almost equal measure. Two thirds of the female sample (67 percent), as opposed to 55 percent of men
also affirmed that ‘in any rape case, one would have to question whether the victim is promiscuous or
has a bad reputation,’ and 75 percent of women (and 79 percent of men) reported that ‘some women ask
to be raped by the way they dress and behave.’
These attitudes place the burden of their own security on women themselves, absolve men of the re-
sponsibility for their own actions including the perpetration of violence, and support violence against
women for the sake of family unity and honour. Women who subscribe to these gender norms thereby
support and reinforce hegemonic masculinity by consent.
3.4
Household responsibilities
In its Programme of Action, the 1994 UN International Conference on Population and Development
(ICPD) in Cairo recommended that governments promote the equal participation of men and women
in all areas of family and household responsibilities including joint parenthood. Subsequent studies
(IMAGES Survey, 2010) took note of this platform of action to incorporate the perceptions of men and
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
28
women on the division of household duties and spousal communication as key areas of inquiry in its
comprehensive household survey. The CARE survey followed this line of inquiry and incorporated
questions on equitable participation in household duties, childcare and parenting.
Responses to the statements designed to map men’s attitudes to women’s roles within the household
revealed that 57 percent of males agreed that a woman’s most important role is to take care of her home
and cook for her family. While the percentage of men who were in agreement with this was almost
equal in the Colombo, Batticoloa and Hambantota districts, it was higher (62 percent) in the Nuwara
Eliya district, reflecting a stronger cultural pattern of patriarchy amongst the plantation workers.
Although 75 percent of men, as measured on the GEM Scale, agreed with the statement ‘I think that
men should share the work around the house such as doing dishes, cleaning and cooking,’ as measured
on the housework sharing scale, 70 percent of men reported that it is usually or always their partner
who prepares food, 59 percent stated that it is usually or always their partner who cleans the house, 67
percent reported that it is usually or always their partner who washes the clothes and 52 percent noted
that it is usually or always their partner who takes care of the children. Taking into account all of the
above activities, 62 percent of males of the CARE survey reported that their wives or girlfriends do more
of the housework than themselves.

In the IMAGES Survey (2010) it was found that younger, educated men, and men who had fathers who
engaged in domestic household work were more likely to be involved in domestic duties themselves; and
that nearly half the men surveyed in all sites in countries such as Brazil, Chile, Croatia, South Africa,
Mexico and Rwanda stated that they played an equal or greater role in one or more household duty
(albeit a task traditionally associated with men) compared to their female partners, with the excep-
tion of India. The CARE study supports evidence that men who had fathers who did household work
were more likely to engage in, and share, housework themselves. Sixty-one percent of male respondents
of the CARE survey reported that their fathers sometimes prepared food, 63 percent noted that their
fathers sometimes cleaned the house, 57 percent stated that their fathers sometimes washed clothes,
50 percent reported that their fathers sometimes looked after them or their siblings and 44 percent
reported that their fathers sometimes did the marketing, while 47 percent noted that their fathers did
the marketing often/very often. Out of the men who reported that their fathers frequently engaged in
household duties, only 49 percent claimed that their wives or girlfriends usually do the housework.
However, 69 percent of men who stated that their fathers rarely participated in household work reported
Masculinity and gender relations: Attitudes and practices
29
that their wives or girlfriends usually do most of the housework (see Figure 3.1). This provides clear
evidence that men whose fathers shared, or sometimes engaged in, household duties did more house-
work themselves — pointing to the importance of parenting role models in transmitting practices and
attitudes to gender equity in the household.

3.5
Decision-making
Equity in decision-making has long been accepted as an indicator of gender equality. It indicates
mutual support and provides women a space to exercise agency, choice and responsibility. In being
able to engage in respectful, congenial discussions with spouses and intimate partners over important
issues pertaining to household finances, resource development, children’s education and family health,
equity in decision-making leads to increases in both men’s and women’s self-esteem and overall posi-
tive family well-being.
Data from the field relating to gender equity in decision-making in the household is mixed. While 76 per-
cent of men reported that they were the heads of their households (compared to 6 percent of women
reporting the same),’ Sixty percent of men disagreed with the statement that ‘a man should have the
final say in all family matters’ (see Table 3.2). This points to how in family matters (usually understood
as related to caregiving, raising children, domestic servants, neighbourhood relations, daily household
expenditure, etc.), which are treated as within the private, feminized domain, there is a propensity in
men towards a less patriarchal form of decision-making within the household. Fifty-five percent of men
also reported that equal decision-making occurs regarding the final say on the health of the women in
their own family, while 73 percent of men reported that both partners decide equally on who usually
has the final say on children’s school activities. Sixty-six percent of men also stated that both partners
decide equally on who usually has the final say about decisions involving how the family spends money
on food and clothing, and 70 percent of men reported that both partners decide equally on how the
family spends money on large investments such as buying vehicles or household appliances. The data

also indicates that apart from decisions about large investments, household decisions were more likely to
be made by women than men, in cases where the decisions were not equally shared.
As noted before, 70 percent of men also agreed that women should be in public decision-making roles,
and 62 percent supported the greater participation of women at elections implying their support of
women as decision makers relating to public policy and the legislature. These figures are important
to note in the context of increased advocacy in Sri Lanka of greater participation of women in political
representation.

As measured on the GEM Scale, however, men’s attitudes regarding decision-making were less equita-
ble. Fifty-six percent of men reported that they have more to say than their wives or girlfriends about
important decisions that affect them. Moreover, 79 percent pegged decision-making to being the head
of a household, marking it as the second most decisive factor in whether the male or female is the head
of household (86 percent of males stated that household leadership should be decided on income genera-
tion).
The above data indicates that when questions on decision-making are asked as attitudinal statements,
a majority of men agree with prescribed gender norms that expect men to be the decision makers and
women the followers, but in their individual lives and intra-household relations, men leave room for
negotiation and mutual decision-making with intimate partners. Connell (1995 and 2005, p.79) notes
that, ‘Marriage, fatherhood and community life often involve extensive compromises with women
rather than naked domination or an uncontested display of authority.’ Scholars (Walle, 2004, p.109)
also point to how ‘the dynamic interplay between what people do on the one hand, and the perceptions
and values that they attach to everyday activities on the other, allows for frequent change and adjust-
ment of both their activities and their perceptions and values.’ This affirms, once again, that ‘becoming
a householder remains part of a generalized masculine…hegemonic ideal against which actual male
Masculinity and gender relations: Attitudes and practices

performances [must be] measured which [also] serve to structure other aspects of life such as educa-
tion, housing and kinship’ (Chopra, Osella and Osella, 2004, p.16).
3.6
Dowry
Obtaining dowry upon marriage was not a significant factor amongst the male respondents of the
CARE survey, 85 percent of whom stated that they do not feel dowry is important and 69 percent of
whom reported that their marriages did not involve dowry. Of the cohort whose marriages did involve
dowry, 75 percent of men reported that, where dowry houses were given, the property was not in his
name, and 70 percent of men stated that where money was given, it was deposited solely in the wife’s
name. This points to several aspects of marriage customs and property ownership in Sri Lanka. To
begin with, in many instances, owners do not hold legal titles to inherited property so that it is possible
that neither the man nor the woman possess title of the property they enjoy by customary rights (Pinto
and Almeida-Guneratne, 2010). Second is that as attitudes and marriage customs change, parents are
opting to ensure their daughters’ security by endowing dowry solely to her, effecting a circumstance
under which intended sons-in-law do not, or cannot, insist on the dowry being written in their names.
9
Data from the CARE study also indicates moderate equity in decision-making on how dowry is spent.
Eighty-two percent of men reported that both partners had equal control over how dowry was spent,
while 65 percent of women reported the same. The gap in the male and female responses possibly
indicates over-reporting by men. Dowry-related violence is still prevalent: a recent study based on the
narratives of IPV survivors who sought help at Women in Need (Jayasundere, 2012, p.14) notes that 13
percent of its cases of IPV/domestic violence were over dowry. In the CARE study dowry did not figure
as a significant factor in IPV and moderate gender equity was shown in how it was disbursed within
the family.
3.7
Complicit and changing masculinities
While not all men adhere to the role model of the dominant male, characterized by authoritarianism,
aggression and control of others even by violent means, Connell, 1995 and 2005, pp.79-80) argues that
there is another type of complicit masculinity which nevertheless benefits from hegemonic masculinity.
Complicit masculinity refuses to take the risks associated with being dominant (i.e., the cost of naked
aggression and violent fights), but nevertheless supports the hegemonic project as a passive bystander
would, thereby enjoying ‘the patriarchal dividend’ that hegemonic/dominant masculinity brings.
10
It
is this structural privilege men enjoy and gain power from, even without recourse to violence, that was
understood in Sinhala culture as evident in the Sinhala proverb ‘To the strong man, what use is a club?’
(Senaveratne, 1936, p.141).
It is possible, therefore, to see the 55 percent of men who agreed that they control how their partners
dress, the 57 percent who declared that they dictate whom their partners can spend time with and the 55
percent who acknowledged that they want to know where their partner is at any given time as complicit
males who deploy their gender and the structural advantages they enjoy as men to control women, even
if they do not use violence. It is noteworthy that in relation to the same battery of questions, the female
respondents reported less male controlling behaviour than the men: Only 39 percent of women noted
9 This does not mean that sons-in-law always remain uninterested in dowry property, or that men do not control property in other ways.
McGilvray and Lawrence (2010, p.109) and Osella and Osella (2006, p.3) make this point in their discussion of matrilocal inheritance pat-
terns in the Batticoloa district, and the Hindu karanavan matrilineal system, respectively.
10 Such complicity also compels men to look away when other men perpetrate violence. Only 45 percent of men in the CARE sample stated
they would intervene if they saw a male friend use physical or sexual violence against a woman; while the figure dropped to 32percent in
the case of a stranger engaged in VAW.
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
32
that their male partners do not permit them to wear what they want; 41 percent of women stated that
their male partners control who they spend time with and 46 percent stated that their male partners
want to know where they are all the time.
How can we understand this discrepancy? On the one hand, the female responses can be interpreted as
under-reporting instances of male control over women, or internalizing male control to the extent that it
is has become so naturalized that the women no longer feel its impact. It can also be explained in terms
of the high rates of female acceptance of gender norms (discussed earlier in this chapter). However,
these explanations rob women of agency and perception. As noted above, men make compromises
within marriage and community life (Connell, 1995 and 2005, p.79), and adjustments, transactions and
negotiations characterize the interplay of what people actually do and the perceptions and values they
may hold (Walle, 2004, p.109). In this light, it is possible that issues of dress, mobility and association do
not come across to the female respondents of the CARE sample as areas of overt control and masculine
aggression but, rather, as matters agreed upon in the spirit of accommodation.
3.8
Conclusion
T
hedataongenderattitudesandpracticespointtothefactsthatmen’sactualbehavioursare
sometimes more gender equitable than their attitudes, that women uphold and reproduce these ineq-
uitable attitudes and that fathers’ participation in household duties influences the participation of sons.
Several significant implications arise from this data. As measured on the GEM Scale, male respondents
yielded a higher percentage of gender inequitable attitudes than when they were asked about specific
practices in their individual everyday lives. This points to how, when asked to respond to gender norms
within society that are ideological, a significant percentage of men affirm these norms even if in prac-
tice they are more accommodating and/or strategic in their relations with women. This disconnect
between men’s stated attitudes and their actual behaviours suggests a space for change. As new dis-
courses and practices of masculinity emerge, they necessarily respond to significant changes that have
occurred in the lives of both men and women. This includes greater empowerment of women in the
public sphere and the induction of women’s rights and entitlements as an intrinsic part of the doctrine
of human rights.
Yet there is need for caution because, as Vijayan (2004, p.373) notes, while the forms and needs of
masculinity may have changed, its interest in the distribution, management and access to power has
remained. This explains why, for instance, masculinities that permit agreement on equal decision-
making and greater participation of women in public life are not necessarily in direct competition with
overtly patriarchal masculinities, which call for women’s obedience, the feminization of household
duties and the control of women’s sexual relations. Rather, it is possible to see these diverse types of
masculinities as more or less complicit and cooperative with each other.
A correspondence exists, therefore, between different forms of masculinity so that, even as societies
change, patriarchal conditions that enable hegemony or dominance to be masculine (Vijayan, 2004,
p.364) are already accommodated into that change. This also explains why there continues to be a
masculinization of government, technology and the corporate sphere, even as individual men (as in the
CARE sample) show moderate gender equity in their everyday lives and practices in relation to decision-
making, control of women’s dress and mobility and attitudes to equal pay.

4.1
Introduction
A
variety of standpoints, whether informed by Freudian psychoanalysis or second wave
feminism, hold males accountable for violence on the grounds that male bodies and psyches are
driven by innate aggression around which masculine identity forms and evolves (Chodorow, 2002,
p.255; Connell, 2005, p.45). Recent interventions by social scientists as well as gender activists and
scholars locate violence, on the other hand, as a tool invariably used by the dominant gender, thereby
linking violence to power (Connell, 2005, p.83), and applicable to both men and women. As Nancy
Chodorow (2002, p.252) reminds us ‘Aggression is found and develops in non-pathological ways in both
sexes.’ However, although evidence exists of aggressive women who use force in relation to child-rearing
as mothers and schoolteachers, or as mothers-in-law, or inflict violence in war and armed revolutions
as members of militaries and militias, this is an area of violence that has been largely silenced and
neglected in gender studies.
11
Such incidents of female violence are perceived to be low even as the crisis
and magnitude of male violence against women elicited international attention and support at least
since Beijing in 1995. Therefore, the predominant recent focus of gender practitioners and scholars has
been on male violence against women.
This focus has also stemmed from the fact that it is men who are, more often than not, armed and
empowered by society, culture, the state and the law and therefore have access to the use of force. Men
thereby become the predominant perpetrators of domestic, sexual, military and urban violence and
because they are ‘authorized by an ideology of supremacy’ (Connell, 2001, p.44). But men use violence
not only to maintain their dominance over women but also over other men whose difference (ethnicity,
race, class, caste, sexual) threatens hegemonic masculinity. In this way violence assumes significance
within gender politics amongst men themselves (ibid).
Male violence is also related to structural inequities. Muggah (2012, p.30) notes that the existence of
poverty, inequities of income, and unequal access to economic opportunities, labour markets, health
and education services lead to male on male violence so that, globally, men are more likely than women
to be killed in fatal attacks in public spaces — both in urban and rural settings — as well as marginally
more vulnerable than women to violence in urban settings. Evidence highlighted in urban studies also
shows that men in urbanized cities tend to experience more physical assault and violent robbery than
women, although women suffer a high degree of sexual violence perpetrated by men (ibid).
The impact of male on male violence in both urban and rural settings in Sri Lanka is yet to be com-
prehensively studied. The available national literature on gender-based violence has predominantly
addressed the vulnerability of women and girls to male violence. This literature has provided valuable
evidence of a variety of violent acts and contexts from sexual abuse of adolescent girls to rape, IPV and
violence in armed conflict (Shanmugam and Emmanuel, 2010; Wijayatilake, 2004; Jayasundere, 2012;
Loganathan and de Silva, 1999). Recent studies on domestic violence have shown that men perpetrate
violence for varying reasons including intoxication, victim’s dependency, sexual entitlement, jealousy
and interference by the victim’s family (Jayasundere, 2012, P.14). Sexual entitlement and threats to
household leadership (by the extended family, for instance) also have a direct bearing on men’s sense
of masculinity that they often defend, thereafter, through violence.
The link between masculinity and violence often comes across to women victims as pre-existing and
self-evident. Thirty-five percent of women who participated in the study on domestic violence by
Women in Need (WIN) stated that ‘violence takes place because the perpetrator is generally violent and
needs no reason to be violent towards the victim survivor’ (ibid). This points to both the internalization
by women that men are inherently violent and a structural context in which male violence is natural-
ized and normed also because the state, the law and the community are lax, or at least inconsistent, on
11 In this respect the Women in Need (WIN, 2012) study on domestic violence, which out of 796 cases found 1 percent of wives and 2 percent
of mothers-in-law to have used violence, is an important intervention in the Sri Lankan discussion on gender-based violence (Jayasundere
2012, p.6).

punishment. Evidence from the CARE study speaks to all of these issues. This chapter builds on, and
complements, existing studies on male violence against women, but also highlights the neglected but
important aspect of male on male violence to locate the prevalence of gender-based violence and map
the reasons, tendencies, experiences and motivations of men who resort to force.
4.2
Male violence against women: Prevalence of intimate
partner violence
The term intimate partner violence (IPV) refers to physical, sexual, economic or emotional violence by
a current or former spouse or partner. The WHO defines IPV as any ‘behaviour in an intimate relation-
ship that causes physical, sexual or psychological harm, including physical aggression, sexual coer-
cion, psychological abuse and controlling behaviours.’
12
This section focuses on men’s use of economic,
emotional, physical and sexual violence against a female intimate partner. Operational definitions of
IPV used in this survey are presented in the methodology chapter.

In the CARE sample, 24 percent of ever-partnered men aged 18–49 years admitted to perpetrating physi-
cal IPV of which pushing and shoving (perpetrated by 19 percent of males) and slapping (perpetrated
by 13 percent of men) were the commonest forms (see Table 4.1). Twenty-one percent of ever-partnered
female respondents reported experiencing physical violence by a male intimate partner, corroborating
the prevalence reported by men. This reinforces previous studies (Jayasuriya, Wijewardene, Axemo,
2011, p.8), which also ascertained that the majority of cases of male physical violence against women
consisted of hitting, kicking, dragging, choking and burning. In the CARE study, 5 percent of men
reported that they had committed physical violence against a partner in the last 12 months.

One in five (20 percent) ever-partnered men aged 18–49 years reported perpetration of sexual violence
against intimate partners, which will be discussed in detail later in the chapter. The most common form
of sexual violence was physically forcing a partner to have sexual relations against her will which was
perpetrated by 13 percent of ever-partnered men (see Table 4.2).

Overall, one in three ever-partnered men (36 percent) reported that they had committed physical and/
or sexual violence against an intimate partner in their lifetime. This is supported by 29 percent of ever-
partnered women who reported experiencing such violence. In the CARE study, the data shows that
there is some overlap between physical and sexual partner violence perpetration as shown in Figure
4.2. Looking at the group of men who reported perpetrating physical or sexual violence we find that
they are more likely to perpetrate physical violence on its own, rather than sexual violence alone.
Twenty-two percent of men who had perpetrated violence had used both physical and sexual violence
against a partner.

Forty-one percent of men in the CARE sample also admitted to emotionally abusing their intimate
partners, with 31 percent admitting to the use of intimidation and threats against their partners

Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
40
Taking demographic characteristics associated with intimate partner violence perpetration into con-
sideration, variation in rates of violence within different age groups and different types of relationships
is evident. The older a man gets the higher the rate of lifetime perpetration of partner violence. This
does not mean that older men use more violence, but this finding is expected because the older a man is
the more times he has had to potentially perpetrate violence against a partner. To see if older or younger
men actually perpetrate more violence the current rate of violence perpetration in the last 12 months
is crucial. As we see from table 4.5, men aged 25–34 years have, in fact, the highest rate of current
perpetration of partner violence. The youngest age group has the lowest rate of perpetration, most likely
because the majority have not been married and are not yet in cohabiting relationships.
There is little variation in the rates of IPV perpetration by income group, although the rates are slightly
higher among the men in the highest income group. For example, in the lowest income group, the
prevalence of IPV perpetration is 33 percent and in the highest groups it is 38 percent. This data dispels
a common assumption that IPV has a greater occurrence amongst low-income groups. (When it came
to income as a variable, the CARE sample as a whole fell within the lower middle-class category with
income between Rs. 6,000 (US$ 47) to Rs. 20,000 (US$ 157) a month.)
The CARE study found no statistically significant variation in the rates of IPV perpetration by educa-
tion level. However, rates of violence are somewhat lower in the lower education groups, dispelling the
notion that poorer educated men are more violent. It is significant, however, that 35 percent of men who
reported perpetration of IPV, and 9 percent of men who reported perpetration of non-partner sexual
violence had completed tertiary education. This resonates with a 2006 study of undergraduate male
medical students that found that 33 percent of respondents justified wife-beating, 63 percent stated
that women bore the larger proportion of blame for violence against them and 23 percent stated that
occasional violence by a husband against his wife could help maintain their marriage (Jayatilleke, et
al.,2010, p.93). These findings indicate the need for programming interventions in schools, universities
and other tertiary educational institutions towards the prevention of gender-based violence.
There are several drivers or risk factors associated with IPV as found in the CARE study. To explore
factors that either increase or decrease the risk of a man perpetrating partner violence, multivariate
logistic regression was conducted. The CARE study tested several variables for correlation to male
perpetration of IPV including gender attitudes, education, health, household decision-making, income,
experiences of childhood trauma and others. A model showing all the factors that were found to be
statistically associated with men’s use of violence against an intimate partner is presented in Table
4.6. The adjusted odds ratios (aOR) show the increased likelihood that a man will perpetrate IPV if a
particular characteristic is present.
Attitudes of men and women as measured on the Gender Equitable Men (GEM) Scale point to high
levels of acceptance by both men and women of masculinized violence and the use of male force in both
domestic and community contexts. As discussed in the previous chapter, the majority of both men and
women in the districts under study believe that masculinity is linked to toughness and violence. These
standpoints provide the foundational conditions upon which physical and/or verbal violence within
the home and community can take place. As noted in chapter three, female attitudes toward these
statements prevailed at a higher rate, pointing not only to women’s acceptance of men as the dominant
gender but also the suitable sex to mete out force.
Several of the attitudes reinforcing violence in the domestic sphere, are related to the use and tolerance of
violence against women, and acceptance of male dominance within the household. Twenty-six percent
of men and 38 percent of women in the CARE sample agreed that ‘there are times or apt circumstances
under which it is all right to beat a woman,’ and 41 percent of men and 58 percent of women stated that
‘a woman should tolerate violence to keep the family together.’ Seventy-eight percent of men and 87
percent of women declared that ‘women should obey their husbands,’ while 40 percent of men and 43
percent of women noted that males should have the final say in family matters.

41
Men’s controlling behaviour, as assessed using the relationship control scale, was found to be a
strong correlate of violence perpetration reflecting the ground conditions that condone, if not act as,
drivers of violence. Men who quarrelled frequently with their partner were also more likely to use
violence, compared with men who rarely quarrelled. This indicates that programmes on interpersonal
communication and conflict resolution within relationships may have some positive implications for
reducing violence.
Levels of empathy, tested in regards to concern for others less fortunate, protectiveness toward others
when they are being taken advantage of, sensitivity to life around them and soft-heartedness yielded
results that showed that men who have higher levels of empathy are less likely to perpetrate violence
against an intimate partner. Twenty-seven percent of those who were at the highest level of the empathy
scale and 40 percent of those who had the lowest empathy were found to have perpetrated sexual
violence — pointing to the fact that high empathy is a protective factor against intimate partner violence
perpetration against women. High empathy is something that can be promoted, therefore, in advocacy
around protection against VAW.
Parenting models and men’s own experience of child abuse were other variables that were considered in
the analysis. Men’s experiences of trauma as children play a strong role in both the inter-generational
transmission and recurrence of violence. The CARE study found that men who have experienced
physical, sexual or emotional violence as children are 1.7 to 2 times more likely to perpetrate violence
against intimate partners than men who have not experienced such abuse as children. For example,
41 percent of the men who had been beaten as a child perpetrated IPV themselves in adulthood
compared to only 19 percent of men who had perpetrated IPV but had not been beaten as a child. While
not all boys who have experienced violence become perpetrators, studies (Straus and Gelles; Jaffe, et al.
cited in Jayasinghe, Jayawardena and Perera, 2009, p.275) have shown that boys who have witnessed or
suffered violence are more likely to become perpetrators of violence themselves as men. This points to
the need for violence prevention programmes to focus on promoting non-violent childhood experiences.

* Non-partner and any sexual violence is among all men, whereas intimate partner violence is among ever-partnered men.
This is why intimate partner sexual violence appears higher than any sexual violence.

women or girls including partners and non-partners.

This number is inclusive of the men who reported
sexual violence against intimate partners and the 6 percent of men who reported ever perpetrating
13 It should be noted that as sexual violence was taken as a part of IPV in the study, many of the figures for sexual violence overlap with IPV.
14 The term sexual violence as used in this report refers to a range of sexual acts, which can include rape, as well as acts that can fall under
‘Grave Sexual Abuse.’ Under Section 365 (B) of the Penal Code (Amendment) Act 22 of 1995 and Act No. 16 of 2006, grave sexual abuse
is defined as ‘any act [committed for sexual gratification] by a person by the use of his genitals or any other part of the human body or
any Instrument on any orifice or part of the body on any other person, being an act which does not amount to rape under Section 363,
in circumstances falling under any of the following descriptions, that is to say — a) without the consent of the other person’. Rape is
defined under Section 363 of the penal code as ‘sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent even if she is the wife but judicially
separated; when the woman’s consent has been obtained by the use of force, intimidation or threat; when the woman is of unsound mind
or intoxicated from alcohol or drugs; under circumstances of misrepresentation; and with or without her consent if the woman is under 16
years of age, unless the woman is the man’s wife and over 12 years of age and not judicially separated’.

sexual violence against a non-partner. This shows that men are more likely to commit sexual violence
against an intimate partner than a non-partner. However, as Figure 4.4 shows there is also an overlap
between these figures, meaning that 4 percent of males have perpetrated sexual violence against both
partners and non-partners.

* Statistically significant difference in rates of IPV perpetration within demographic group.
Table 4.8 shows the rates of non-partner sexual violence perpetration in relation to different demo-
graphic characteristics. As expected, men of a younger age have a lower rate of lifetime perpetration
as they have had fewer years in their lives to have committed such violence. There is no significant
difference in rates of sexual violence by education, although it is important to note that rates of this
violence do not go down as education increases. This clearly dispels the myth that sexual violence is
more likely to be committed by less educated men and indicates that perpetrators of sexual violence are
men who hold slightly more power by way of higher education. While the CARE study also found no
significant difference in rates of sexual violence perpetration by income, what was clear was that poorer
men were not more likely to be violent.
Of the overall cohort of perpetrators of sexual violence, 64 percent admitted to victimizing one woman
(corroborating the marital rape context), while 24 percent stated that they had perpetrated sexual
violence against two to three women. Twelve percent of males reported having perpetrated a violent
sexual act against their intimate partners within the past 12 months — the highest percentages being
from Colombo (22 percent) and Hambantota (14 percent).

Figure 4.6
Men’s motivations for perpetrating sexual violence inclusive of
rape against intimate partners and/or non-partners
Men who reported perpetrating sexual violence in the CARE study were also asked about their motiva-
tions for committing that violence (Figure 4.6). Sixty-seven percent of men who reported perpetration
of sexual violence said that they were motivated by sexual entitlement: that is, their right to have sexual
relations with women.
15
Other motivations for sexual violence as reported by men were as follows:
20 percent of men declared that the last time they perpetrated sexual violence was because they wanted
to have fun or they were bored. Fourteen percent stated they did so as a form of punishment or out of
anger, while only 10 percent of men were motivated by alcohol. Additional analysis found that men who
perpetrated sexual violence on a non-partner were slightly more likely to do so for fun and more likely
to have been influenced by alcohol than men who committed sexual violence inclusive of rape against
a partner.
4.5
Risk factors associated with perpetration of sexual
violence, inclusive of rape against non-partners
Table 4.9 presents the significant risk factors associated with men’s sexual violence against non-part-
ners. Men who used physical violence against an intimate partner were nearly three times more likely
to use sexual violence against a non-partner, highlighting a pattern of violent behaviour. Men who had
experienced sexual abuse or emotional abuse as a child were also twice as likely to perpetrate sexual
violence later in life. Seventeen percent of men who had been sexually abused as a child perpetrated
sexual violence against a woman or girl compared with only 3 percent of men who had not experienced
15 Sexual entitlement is defined as: men reporting that their motivation for perpetrating rape was one or more of three responses: ‘I wanted
her sexually’; ‘I wanted to have sex’; ‘I wanted to show that I could do it’.

child sexual abuse. This is overwhelming evidence that a direct link exists between childhood sexual
abuse — a major cause of trauma that shapes the well-being of boys as well as their own sexuality and
tendency to violence as grown men — and perpetration of non-partner sexual violence.
Having multiple sexual partners and engaging in sex with a commercial sex worker or transactional sex
were associated with male sexual violence perpetration of a non-partner. The prevalence of non-partner
sexual violence among men who had sex with a commercial sex worker was 25 percent compared to

The data reflects a strong connection between male perpetration of physical and sexual IPV and
childhood trauma, controlling behaviour, low empathy and quarrelsomeness; and less strong but
noteworthy correspondence to alcohol and drug use, witnessing violence between parents and sexual
behaviour involving multiple sexual partners and transactional sex. The data underscores the need,
therefore, for alertness to these factors as push-pull drivers of male physical and sexual violence. By
locating and monitoring these risk factors we return men, importantly, to the social, cultural, familial,
spatial, psychic and material contexts of their everyday lives as sources from which the push-pull drivers
of violence take root and germinate. We thereby move away from the essentialization that all men are
violent to target instead the factors that construct and produce violent men who not only endanger
themselves at times, but also their wives or girlfriends, and other women as well as men.
4.6
Reporting by women of sexual violence
16
The sample from women in the CARE study is smaller than that from men, and not designed to provide
a comprehensive picture of women’s experiences. However, it is useful as a point of comparison to the
reporting by men. The rates of sexual violence as reported by women in the CARE sample is generally
lower than male reporting on the subject even though there is possible underreporting by both men
and women on the actual occurrences of the violence. For example, 4 percent of women reported expe-
riencing sexual violence by non-partners whereas 6 percent of men reported perpetrating non-partner
sexual violence.
Thirteen percent of women stated that their present or previous husband/male partner had sexual rela-
tions with them even when they didn’t want it, and 9 percent of women reported that they submitted
to sexual relations with their current or previous husband/male partner because they were afraid of
what their partner might do if they refused. Five percent of women reported that they were forced into
a sexual act they did not like by their current or previous husband/male partner. These figures may
reflect underreporting by the women because of the stigma attached to sexual violence and the taboo
of talking openly about conjugal sexual relations. This is reflected, for instance, in the fact that only
10 percent of women reported being forced into sexual relations by an intimate partner as opposed to
14 percent of men reporting perpetration of such violence. Women’s reporting of sexual violence by
non-partners (4 percent) was almost half that of men (6 percent) who admitted to such perpetration.
Overall, women’s figures of reporting sexual violence was also low in comparison to the 80 percent of
women of the general sample who stated that their husband/male partner expected them to agree to
have sex when the men wanted it.
16 It should be noted that the figures for sexual violence inclusive of rape against a partner are calculated slightly differently from men’s and
women’s reports. Partner rape perpetration is calculated from men’s responses to having “ever forced your current or previous wife or
girlfriend to have sexual relatons with you when she did not want to” and having “ever had sexual relations with your current or previous
wife or girlfriend when you knew she didn’t want it but you believed she should agree because she was your wife/partner.” Partner rape
victimization is calculated from women’s responses to two questions regarding: whether a “current or previous husband or boyfriend ever
physically forced you to have sexual relations when you did not want to” and whether the woman “ever had sexual relations with a current
or previous husband or boyfriend when you did not want to because you were afraid of what he might do.”

4.7
Attitudes to sexual violence inclusive of rape
Figure 4.7
Attitudes to sexual violence inclusive of rape
Attitudes to sexual violence largely absolve men of the responsibility for sexual violence against women,
place a greater proportion of blame on the women and assign women a greater obligation to safeguard
their own physical safety. Indicative of these standpoints were the 30 percent of men and 32 percent of
women in the CARE sample who agreed that “when a woman is raped she is usually to blame for put-
ting herself in that situation;”
17
and the 79 percent of men and 75 percent of women who declared that
“some women ask to be raped by the way they dress and behave.”
18
The link between dress, behaviour
and sexual violence recurred in the 55 percent of men and 67 percent of women who also held the belief
that in any case the woman’s past behaviour or promiscuity should be questioned.
19
The principle of
consent was also upheld by the 43 percent of men and 44 percent of women who stated that if a woman

Similar attitudes also underwrote sexual harassment, which is a form of sexual abuse. Twenty-five
percent of men noted that teasing women, even of a sexual nature, was harmless; while 32 percent of
men (and 33 percent of women) declared that teasing was harmless unless there was physical force.
4.8
Gender-based violence and accountability
The above attitudes point to a low threshold on accountability that holds men responsible for acts of
sexual violence. As Connell points out, while most men do not perpetrate violence against women, those
who do usually feel justified in doing so, as if they were exercising a right (Connell, 2001, p.44). This
is borne out in the statements made by the male respondents in the CARE study. Only 18 percent of
men who had perpetrated forced sexual relations said that they were afraid of being found out, while
69 percent claimed that they did not feel any guilt after the act. Ninety-three percent of perpetrators
reported there was no punishment from family and friends for the violence committed by them, while
97 percent of the sample did not experience any violent backlash from anyone supporting the victim.
Significantly, only 7 percent of perpetrators had experienced legal consequences (arrested with charges
dropped, or arrested with court case or jailed). Seventy-six percent stated that they experienced no
consequences at all (see Table 4.10).

52
The impunity with which men get away with sexual violence against women follows from three sources
that are pertinent to policy intervention. Given that the majority of instances of sexual violence captured
in the CARE study fall within the IPV category inclusive of marital rape, the first issue is Sri Lanka’s
legal context in which marital rape is not criminalized except in the case of judicial separation. When
the state and the judiciary do not view rape within an ongoing marriage (or even in the case of marital
breakdown when the wife is living separately but has not been judicially separated from her husband) as
violence that should be punished, there is no compulsion for husbands to end this type of violence and
no legal protection for wives. Second are common attitudes that reinforce the acceptance of male sexual
entitlement. Thangarajah and Arasu (2010, p.34) point, for instance, to how the common assumption
of sex as marital duty fails to reinforce an ethic of mutual responsibility so that more often than not
the burden of duty is placed on the wife. The same happens regarding rape where the stigmatization of
female victims and blame on women themselves for ‘getting themselves raped’ place a greater burden
of proof and responsibility on women than male perpetrators. These standpoints absolve men of guilt
and accountability for sexual violence committed by them inclusive of rape. Third, the implementation
of the penal code in cases of rape of non-spousal girls or women is frequently hampered by delays and
characterized by suspended sentences for the culprit. Moreover, the manner in which corroboration
is sought in court in effect places the evidence of female victims of rape under suspicion (Gomez and
Gomez, 1999, pp.135-138). These legal lapses and the social attitudes noted above permit men, more
often than not, to ‘define the conditions and timings of sex’ (Wood and Jewkes, 2001, p.134), including
acts of sexual violence, which, because they relate the body to power and dominance, can be called acts
of ‘intimate supremacy’ (Connell, 2005, p.231).
4.9
Childhood abuse
Childhood shapes who we become as adults, and well-being in childhood plays a crucial role in deter-
mining our outlook on the world, our inter-personal relations, as well as our attitudes to violence in
adulthood. Children are, therefore, designated in both the popular imagination and socio-legal institu-
tions as worthy of protection and responsible nurturing. However, as vulnerable young individuals,
unequal in power to adults, children are often the victims of adult abuse. This abuse takes different
forms, from sexual abuse to emotional neglect and bullying, and physical deprivation.
4.9.1
Sexual abuse
The findings on sexual abuse, particularly of boys in the CARE study, warrants urgent attention not
only for making visible the vulnerability of boys to sexual abuse, but also for tracing the impact it has
on the process by which the boys can become violent men, often targeting women with violence.
As Judith Herman (1992, p.37) notes, trauma recasts itself in memory and has the ability to intrude
repetitively on the survivor’s life, thereby arresting [his] normal course of development. Studies have
found that the detrimental impact of child sexual abuse on the well-being of boys often leads them
to risk-taking behaviours, educational under-achievement, anger, guilt, shame and low self-esteem
all of which, in turn, have direct correlatives to self-infliction or perpetration of violence on others in
adulthood (ibid). The prevalence (and therefore the consequences) of sexual abuse of male children has
been significant in Sri Lanka for some time. A study conducted in the early 1990s for purposes of the
Second Country Report on the Convention on the Rights of the Child by the Department of Probation
and Childcare Services found that 18 percent of boys and 4.5 percent of girls were sexually abused in
childhood. The same questionnaire administered to girls following a ‘lecture’ on child abuse found the
female reports increasing from 4.5 percent to 12.3 percent (de Silva cited in Women’s Health Committee,
SLMA, 2011, p.3). Yet, at 18 percent, boys remained more victimized than girls in this particular study.
The CARE study corroborates this ratio. Twenty-eight percent of male respondents who participated in
the CARE study reported experiencing sexual abuse in childhood as opposed to the 3 percent of females
Producing force: Male violence against women and men
53
who reported the same. These figures do not detract from the necessary attention to the problem of
sexual abuse suffered by girls; rather, they provide evidence that this trend of sexual abuse of children,
and particularly of boys, can continue with worrying consequences for the prevalence of male perpetra-
tion of gender-based violence in adulthood.
In the CARE sample, of the male respondents, 14 percent reported that they were sexually abused
sometimes and 14 percent experienced sexual abuse often in childhood. Thirteen percent reported that
someone had touched their thighs, buttocks, genitals or that they were made to touch someone’s private
parts when they did not want to. Furthermore, 10 percent of men reported that before they were 18
years old, they were exposed to ‘unwanted incidents of a sexual nature,’ while 14 percent were exposed
to pornography against their will. Overall prevalence of child sexual abuse was highest in the Colombo
district (47 percent). Nuwara Eliya district was second (30 percent), Hambantota third (18 percent) and
Batticoloa fourth (16 percent).

These figures (see Table 4.11) point to the prevalence of different forms of coercive sexual conduct that
target and victimize boys. By and large, studies have found that the perpetrators of sexual abuse of chil-
dren are usually known to the victim, either as family members, family friends or older men who elicit
their trust and/or fear (Herman, 1992, pp.98-101; Shanmugam and Emmanuel, 2010, pp.7 and 14). Ad-
ditionally, as discussed above in the risk factors section, men’s experience of abuse as children greatly
increases the likelihood that they will perpetrate violence against a female partner or non-partner later
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
54
in life. It is important not to blame those children who experience violence. It is also important to note
that not all men who experience violence as a child become perpetrators of violence as adults. However,
the data points to the need for promoting child protection and nurturing healthy childhoods as a part
of preventing violence against women in the next generation.
4.9.2
Ragging
Ragging (verbal, physical or emotional abuse of newcomers to educational institutions) in Sri Lankan
schools and universities also constitutes a formidable site of sexualized baiting of boys. Three percent
of males in the CARE male sample reported that they were sometimes forced to have sexual or physical
relations with a community leader or schoolboy before the age of 18. Similarly, 4% of men reported ever
ragging another person. Ragging — including sexualized ragging — of junior schoolboys by older boys,
and freshman at universities by senior students, has been serious enough in Sri Lanka to warrant an
anti-ragging bill, which was enacted in 1998, although with limited effect. Ragging, student violence
and a culture of impunity relating to violence have made schools and universities places that actually
nurture violence.
21
4.10
Male on male violence
A study on masculinities and gender-based violence would not be complete without mapping male on
male violence for an understanding of the vulnerabilities of boys, as well as urban and rural men, and
homosexual and bisexual men, as well as trans- and intersexuals, to violence. While the case of boy
victims of sexual abuse has already been discussed, this section examines other significant contexts in
which men encounter violence, influenced by the dynamics of gangs and weapons use, or as perpetra-
tors or victims of homophobic violence and/or sexual violence.
4.10.1
Gangs
Gangs provide men with collectives or fraternities of peers that shape and reinforce their normative at-
titudes, and provide friendship and support for ‘adventure’ that can also include exploitative behaviour
and violence towards women and other, marginalized men. Group processes often lead to the submis-
sion of individual dissent or concern, and membership in gangs increases the likelihood of violent,
if not criminal, behaviour (Miller and Brunson, 2000, p.422) because members of privileged groups
‘use violence to sustain their dominance’ (Connell, 2001, p.44). Typically, the prevalence of gangs and
ownership of weapons, including knives, which can be used to threaten or harm people in fights, are
features of masculinized urban youth cultures, particularly common in rapidly changing neighbour-
hoods under crisis due to economic, ethnic and spatial displacements and inequities. The presence
of gangs in both urban and rural areas in Sri Lanka also reflects a militarized society that supports
violence and typically emerges from protracted armed conflict such as that experienced in Sri Lanka.
The consequence of such militarization is the support and acceptance of militant, violent solutions to
conflict as part of everyday, routine social relations (de Mel, 2007, p.24).
21 It should be noted that ragging affects both boys and girls. It takes place in girls’ schools and, at Universities, new female undergraduate
students are subjected to sexualized ragging by senior male undergraduate students.

The CARE study (see Table 4.12) found that the highest percentage of males reporting membership
in gangs (15 percent) and the use of a knife or other weapons in fights (19 percent), as well as sexual
violence within the last 12 months (22 percent), was in Colombo, the capital city with rapidly expand-
ing suburbs, slums and a migrant labour population moving to the city for work. The second highest
percentage of males reporting membership in gangs (7 percent) and sexual violence within the last
12e months (14 percent) was in Hambantota: another rapidly expanding district under intense infra-
structural development and social change. Male respondents in the Nuwara Eliya district (reflecting
the tea plantation sector) reported a slightly lower (6 percent) membership in gangs, and 17 percent
reporting use of a knife or other weapon in fights. Against the grain, only 6 percent of males reported
the use of a knife or other weapons in fights in Batticoloa, despite the district experiencing frontline
combat during the war, and therefore heavy militarization including the circulation of small arms. The
data from Batticoloa reflects, perhaps, underreporting in a postwar context in which militancy and the
ownership or use of weapons is likely to arouse surveillance and suspicion. This should not, however,
detract from the strong evidential link between militarization (with its routine support of violence),
militant gangs, weapons use and male perpetration of physical and sexual violence in the Batticoloa
district, which was prevalent during the war, the tsunami and their aftermaths; and which drew the
attention of women’s groups working in the area, such as the Suriya Women’s Development Center
(Fisher, 2012, pp.136 and 140).
4.10.2
Homophobic and male sexual violence
Most studies of IPV in Sri Lanka assume a heteronormative framework and study the impact of male
perpetration of violence on women. However, such a matrix cannot be taken as self-evident because,
as the CARE study shows, a much more fluid, heterogeneous range of sexual behaviours are practiced
in Sri Lanka. For instance, out of 1,431 men who answered the question ‘Are you sexually attracted
to men, women or both?’, 9 percent stated they were ‘not sure’ whether they were attracted to men or
women, while 7 percent of males reported that they were attracted to both sexes. Eleven percent of male
respondents had done something sexual with a boy or man whether voluntarily or forced, and 3 percent
currently have male lovers (see Table 4.13).
The CARE study also reveals male on male violence. For example, more than 4 percent of male re-
spondents reported that they had experienced homophobic violence, and 4 percent had experienced
sexual violence at the hands of a man. Four percent of men also admitted to committing sexual violence
against another man or boy. The rape of men by other men is not necessarily related to sexual orienta-
tion. It is also experienced in a context where dominant males, usually with class and institutional
backing, assert their power over less powerful ‘effeminate’ men to humiliate them and make them fall
into line (Shah and Bondyopadhyay, 2007). Whatever the context, these figures highlight that male on
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
56
male violence cannot be ignored and requires further in-depth study to fill a current gap in evidence-
based knowledge on the relationship of masculinities, sexual minorities and male on male violence in
Sri Lanka.

Although the percentage of males who reported having experienced homophobic violence at the hands
of other men is low, its prevalence nevertheless signifies that gender-based violence against men does
occur in Sri Lanka, although it is largely hidden due to the cultural and legal censure of homosexuality
in the country. Homosexuality is criminalized under Section 365A of the Penal Code (Amendment) Act
No. 22 of 1995, and is therefore clandestine, subject to blackmail, a site of stigmatization, and family-
honour related violence.
The cultural stigma attached to homosexuality and its criminalization in Sri Lanka often prevent men
in intimate partner contexts from reporting male on male violence to law enforcement authorities such
as the police, for fear of being humiliated or arrested themselves. The victims of male on male violence
therefore are in a very challenging situation, neither protected from the law nor the perpetrator whose
violence is more likely than not to go unreported.
The entitlement to secure public spaces in which gay men are safe from the police and from ortho-
dox men who resort to violence in order to punish them for ‘transgression’ also remains restricted. In
a context where hegemonic ideals of masculinity are tied to ‘toughness’ and where the use of violence
is linked to masculine power, the stereotypes that associate homosexuality with weakness and effemi-
nacy can lead to homophobic violence. Therefore, while further research is needed into male violence
against men in Sri Lanka, the patterns of masculine expression in male violence against men have some
overlaps with the gendered power dynamics of male violence against women.
22
22 See Messner, 2001, p.261, and Almaguer, 1993, p.257, for a discussion on the role of ‘locker room culture’ in how dominant homosexual
males themselves strategize for acceptance by heterosexual peers through sexism and VAW.

Conclusion
T
heCAREstudypointstoseveralcontexts,driversandvariablesrelatedtothemaleperpetration
of physical and sexual violence against women, as well as men and boys, which are grounded in
cultural attitudes about how to be a man, childhood trauma and sexuality. This report therefore makes
a strong case for looking at male perpetration of gender-based violence not as the outcome of an essen-
tialized male aggression (epitomized by popular expressions such as “boys will be boys” or the Sinhala
saying “kollo ballo”(“boys are dogs”)) but one that is structurally supported through the acceptance
and implementation of violence as a part of routine social relations from which dominant masculinity
gains advantage. Once there is an understanding that the male perpetration of violence is contingent
on several social, cultural and gendered attitudes and experiences of violence, it is possible to veer away
from naturalizing it — which, in effect, is a position that protects it from change.
Evidence from the CARE data also interrogates the predominant focus on heteronormativity as an as-
sumed ‘default’ framework in the study and discussion of GBV or SGBV (sexual and other forms of
gender-based violence), given that significant evidence exists of diverse sexual practices in Sri Lanka.
Taking all of this into account is ultimately about making visible not only the violence men perpetrate,
but also their everyday material lives, which carry explanations of why and how they are produced as
both perpetrators and victims of violence.

Introduction
T
heCAREsurveyonknowledge,practicesandsocialattitudestowardgenderandgender-based
violence in the four districts under study was designed to capture data on male and female attitudes
to gender relations within the home and the community, and the prevalence of IPV and non-partner
sexual violence. But it was also intended to capture indicators on health, including stress, depression,
suicidal thoughts, childhood trauma, attitudes and practices toward sexual and reproductive health,
and the health impact of violence against women. A limitation of the CARE survey was that questions
directed at the male sample on health were less than those targeting the female sample. Yet the data
that did emerge on men’s well-being and mental health, attitudes to reproductive and sexual health,
parenting and the impact of male perpetration of IPV on women provides significant evidence on the
gendering of health in the four districts under study.
Of the many approaches to the analysis of health and well-being, the recent emphasis, both interna-
tionally and nationally, on Well-being and Development (WeD) (White, 2009, pp.7–8) provides a useful
framework. The WeD approach enables people’s physical and mental health, quality of life as empha-
sized in the WHO Quality of Life (QOL) survey (developed since 1991), and psychosocial well-being
to be considered as central aspects of economic and human development. This places emphasis on
contextualizing health indicators in relation to macroeconomic and developmental trends, as well as
individual perceptions, gender and cultural attitudes on the basis that ‘well-being is always grounded
in a particular social and cultural location’ (ibid). A fuller length analysis of male and female health
indicators in relation to the above coordinates, including economic, employment and migration pat-
terns is required if justice is to be done to the WeD approach. However, evidence from the CARE study
suggests that there is already enough information to make a case for certain correlatives between the
mental health of its male respondents and economic, employment, attitudinal and migration patterns
that warrant attention.
5.2
Economic stress and well-being
Overall, 56 percent of men reported work-related stress. Sixty percent of male respondents disagreed
with the statement that they have good jobs with adequate income, and an equal number (60 percent)
reported that they are frequently under stress or depressed due to inadequate income. Fifty-one percent
reported that they spend most of their time out of work or looking for work. Moreover, there was no
significant difference between the 53 percent of respondents who agreed with the statement that their
employment situation was mostly stable and the 47 percent who disagreed. Forty-six percent of male
respondents also reported that they are frequently stressed or depressed because they do not have a job
that suits their education and/or experience (see Table 5.1).

Regarding types of employment and income
levels, 22 percent reported that they had never
been employed (either because they were
students or were without work), 20 percent held
blue-collar jobs (factory workers/waiters), 15
percent were engaged in farming or fishing,
14 percent were traders or in business and 10
percent were daily wage manual labourers. These
jobs were mostly stable — 72 percent of the male
sample reported that they usually had work
throughout the year, while 20 percent reported
seasonal work. As to income and expenditure,
the CARE sample as a whole fell largely within a
lower middle-income group category. A majority
41 percent of men earned between Rs. 10,000
(US$78) and 20,000 (US$ 156) per month, while 24 percent earned between Rs. 6,000 (US$47) and
10,000 (US$78) per month. Only 3 percent of the male sample earned below Rs. 3000/- (US$ 23) per
month and therefore come under the official poverty line, tabulated by the government at Rs. 3028 per
real expenditure per person a month in 2009–2010 (Dept. of Census and Statistics, 2009–2010b). In
terms of spending, 62 percent of respondents spent below Rs. 20,000 per month, and 17 percent spent
below Rs. 10,000 per month. The economic stress experienced by the majority of male respondents,
although it was not a result of absolute poverty, and their low monthly expenditure indicate cash-flow
problems and perceptions of inadequate earnings that have a direct bearing on levels of stress.
When male respondents were asked if
someone were to suddenly fall ill within
their family, would they d have Rs. 5000/-
(US$ 38) to spend on emergency treatment,
37 percent of men reported that they would
find it somewhat difficult while 21 percent
reported that they would find it very difficult.
This implies that for a majority 58 percent of
male respondents and their families, access
to free or low cost state medical services for
emergency treatment would be crucial.

Men’s family responsibilities, in relation to their economic status, was also a factor that led to stress.
Fifty-one percent of men reported that they were frequently stressed or depressed because they had to
provide and be responsible for the family. As already noted in chapter three, common gender attitudes
place a greater burden on men to be providers – evidence of which was found in the CARE survey in
which 74 percent of female and 70 percent of male respondents declared that to be a man means provid-
ing for one’s family and extended family. This points to how masculinity, constituted in this case as the
‘male as provider’ is deeply embedded in local culture and is, in effect, a price men pay for patriarchal
headships of households. When men fail to be the breadwinners, or are perceived as inadequate pro-
viders, several negative consequences follow. Forty-nine percent of men reported that they sometimes
feel ashamed to face their family because they are out of work. Seventeen percent reported that they
sometimes drink or stay away from home because they cannot find work, and 24 percent of men agreed
with the statement ‘I think my wife/family is ashamed of me because I don’t have an income.’
Earning capacity and income had, therefore, a direct bearing on men’s perception of their position in
households with a knock-on effect on their well-being. Forty-eight percent of males reported that they
provide the main income for their households, even though an equal number (48 percent) declared that
they did not own their own homes. This points to a significant number of males without the purchasing
power to own their own homes. Moreover, for 36 percent of the male sample, parental income was the
main source of household income. Of those reliant on parental income, 78 percent were of the 20-24
year age group, while 33 percent were of the 25–29 years age group. This indicates that an overwhelm-
ing majority of male respondents who reported that parental income was the primary source of family
financing were of a working age themselves.
These figures are important to note because, for many families in Sri Lanka, ownership and income
determines headship of households which, in turn, has an impact on the householder’s sense of self-
esteem and confidence. It is interesting to note that while 86 percent of males declared that income was
a deciding factor in whether the head of household is male or female, only 34 percent reported that own-
ership of house/land was a decisive factor. This points, perhaps, to men’s lack of property ownership
(48 percent did not own houses) and therefore a downplaying of ownership as a determining factor in
household leadership. The inability to own one’s own home and reliance on parental financial support
are factors that have a knock-on effect on men of employable age who may feel subordinate or at least
‘compromised’ in their masculinity because of an inadequate economic, and thereby social status.
5.3
Depression including suicidal thoughts
The CARE study found moderate symptoms of depression amongst its male respondents as measured
on the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The CES-D Scale incorporates a num-
ber of questions on levels of general stress, sleep and eating patterns, positive or negative outlook on life,
and suicidal thoughts (see Table 5.4). The current status of depression is assessed by asking respondents
about their experiences in the week prior to their participation in the survey.

In the survey, men were also asked if they had ever had suicidal thoughts. Overall, 7 percent of men
reported having ever thought of taking their own life. Male respondents amongst the 25–34 year age
group were found to be most at risk of depression, with 8 percent of 25–34 year old men showing high
symptoms of depression and 8 percent also experiencing suicidal thoughts. (This resonates with the
evidence of economic stress and reliance on parental financial support amongst this 25–34 year age
group). Of the younger 18-24 year age group, 5 percent of males experienced high symptoms of depres-
sion, with 6 percent experiencing suicidal thoughts; while amongst an older 35–49 age group, 5 percent
showed high levels of depression and 7 percent reported suicidal thoughts (see Table 5.6).

Education was a significant variable when it came to symptoms of depression. Of male respondents who
had only primary school education or lower, 13 percent had high symptoms of depression with 15 percent
experiencing suicidal thoughts. Of the cohort that had received some primary education, 14 percent had
high symptoms of depression with 15 percent experiencing suicidal thoughts. Ten percent of those who
had received some secondary education had moderate symptoms of depression, and 8 percent had sui-
cidal thoughts. Amongst those who had completed secondary education, 4 percent had high symptoms
of depression with 5 percent experiencing suicidal thoughts. This points to a link between low rates of
educational achievement and its correlative in less employment opportunities and low social mobility
on the one hand, and higher symptoms of depression and suicidal thoughts on the other.
The study also found evidence that males who had been previously married (and therefore separated
or divorced) were at higher risk of depression, with 26 percent showing high symptoms and 15 percent
reporting experiencing suicidal thoughts.

Childhood trauma
Apart from child sexual abuse, which was discussed in detail in chapter four, the CARE study found
evidence of other indicators related to childhood trauma. Amongst the questions asked of the male
respondents were those designed to capture their childhood experiences in relation to hunger, humilia-
tion and beatings, emotional neglect, bullying and teasing, and witnessing IPV amongst parents as well
as alcoholic and absentee parents.
Figure 5.1
Percentage of men who experienced different types of abuse and
neglect as children
Table 5.7 shows the overall rates of child abuse and neglect that men reported experiencing when they
were under the age of 18 years. Figure 5.1 shows men’s responses to all questions in the childhood
trauma scale, grouped into categories of physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse and neglect. The
frequency of experiences is presented as sometime and often/very often. Overall, 38 percent of male re-
spondents reported that before they were 18 years of age there were times when they did not have enough
to eat. Similarly, 38 percent also reported experiencing some form of physical abuse as a child — 50
percent noted that they were sometimes or often beaten or physically punished by a schoolmaster or
teacher and 36 percent had been sometimes or often beaten at home with a stick. Twenty-eight percent
of men reported that they had experienced some form of sexual abuse as a child as discussed in the
previous chapter. Forty-four percent of men reported that they had experienced some form of emotional
abuse as a child such as being called lazy, stupid or weak by someone within the family, or experienc-
ing insults and humiliation in front of other people at the hands of someone in his family. Thirty-nine
percent reported that they experienced some form of emotional neglect — for example, 10 percent said
both parents were sometimes or often too drunk or drugged to take care of them. Thirty percent of male
respondents stated that they at least sometimes saw their mothers being beaten by their husbands or
boyfriends (see Table 5.7).

It is noteworthy that, when broken down by geographic site, the rate of experiencing hunger before the
age of 18 was highest in Batticoloa (37 percent), followed by Nuwara Eliya (34 percent) and Colombo
(31 percent), reflecting local economies under stress because of war, the dynamics of the plantation
sector and urbanization, respectively. In the estate sector alone, nutritional indicators are poor: low
birth weight is more than double in comparison to both urban and rural areas elsewhere in the country
(Jayasuriya, 2012, p.10); and previous studies of the estate sector, including a MRI Survey in 2010, noted
that 70 percent of households in the Nuwara Eliya district lack dietary diversity with low levels of ani-
mal protein and iron related to low purchasing power because of poverty (Jayasuriya, 2012, p.12).
5.5
Absentee fathers and impact on health
Related to the issue of child emotional neglect is the absence of parents from nurturing childcare.
The time parents spend with children plays a significant part in child development, parent-child bond-
ing and family health as a whole. The CARE study found that fathers, in particular, were often absent
from nurturing childcare either because of aloofness shaped by gender norms, or economic necessity
that forced male parents to migrate from their home districts in search of employment. The survey
asked male respondents to answer a series of questions about whether they played with their children,
talked to them about personal matters, spoke to them about sex education, and helped with homework.
Of a minimum base of 245 respondents who answered the questions, a mid-level of engagement with
children was seen by 40 percent of fathers in the 18–24 year age group, 38 percent of fathers in the 25-34
year age group and 28 percent of fathers in the 35–49 year group. The overwhelming majority in all age
groups, however, had a low level of engagement with their children, with 65 percent of the 35–49 year
age group being the highest in the low-level engagement category.
This data has serious implications for generational transmission because positive parenting has been
known to shape beneficial outcomes in children as they become adults, with better physical and mental
health indicators as well as educational achievement and low criminality (McAllister, et al., 2012, p.5).
A feature of developing economies today is that many in the workforce spend longer hours at work
including on overtime, or commutes from rural homes to urban workplaces. There is also a significant
population that migrates internally to other districts in the country or overseas for employment. This
pattern results in the significant absence of fathers and/or mothers from their homes, which has an
impact on the individual parent’s well-being as well as overall family health. Fifty-one percent of male
respondents reported that they had migrated out of their home districts for work. Twenty percent of
men also reported that when they were growing up their biological mothers were never/rarely at home,
while 35 percent of men reported that their biological fathers were never/rarely at home. Seventy-seven
percent of male respondents also reported that apart from their biological fathers there was no other
important male figure in their life when they were growing up. This highlights that, in the CARE male
sample, fathers were more frequently absent than mothers, and there was a lack of male mentoring of
male children when biological fathers were absent.
The Nuwara Eliya and Batticoloa districts had the highest percentage of absentee parents, with 27 percent
and 38 percent of male respondents from Nuwara Eliya reporting that, respectively, their mothers and
fathers were rarely at home. In the Batticoloa district, 24 percent of males reported that their mothers
were rarely at home while 36 percent reported that fathers were rarely at home. This data indicates that
in these two districts in particular there was a statistically significant absence of fathers as compared
to that of mothers. Certain structural conditions specifically related to the Nuwara Eliya and Batticoloa
districts hold answers as to why fathers were mostly absent from their homes. Work on the plantations
in Nuwara Eliya begins early in the day and after work men often engage in supplementary jobs to
enhance their income. Studies have also shown that alcohol consumption in the plantation sector is
high, although there is a characteristic underreporting of the alcohol consumption and addiction by
males (CEPA, 2005, p.83). This is corroborated in the CARE sample where, overall, only 5 percent of men
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
68
admitted to drinking every day although, even here, the highest admission of alcohol consumption
(8 percent) came from the Nuwara Eliya district. Apart from their regular employment, therefore,
supplementary jobs and time spent at local taverns constitute reasons why men in the plantation sector
spend time away from home.
The Batticoloa district, on the other hand, was on the frontline of the protracted Sri Lankan armed
conflict, and absentee fathers reflect conflict-induced displacement, deaths due to the war, or overseas
migration or internal migration (mainly to the Western Province) in search of jobs and avoidance of
the war. Men from Batticoloa also migrate to adjacent districts such as Polonnaruwa for seasonal
agricultural work. Conflict-related violence, displacement, economic decline — the Eastern province
contributed only 5.8 percent to GDP in 2009 (The Island 20/7/2010) — and seasonal agricultural
patterns are, therefore, factors that force men to leave their homes, resulting in paternal parental absence
impacting on the well-being of men, as well as the family, including child development.
5.6
Reproductive health
The overall CARE random sample captured a largely married population. Attitudes to pregnancy
pointed, by and large, to moderately supportive men. Ninety-one percent of female respondents who
participated in the CARE study had been pregnant with 30 percent of the sample being mothers of two
children. A majority of the women (54 percent), albeit not an overwhelming majority, subscribed to the
view that it was primarily the woman’s responsibility to avoid getting pregnant. However, a significant
majority (68 percent) of men disagreed with this stance. These figures may reflect over-reporting on
the part of men, but over-reporting or political correctness point, nevertheless, to men’s awareness of
their duties and responsibilities regarding the reproductive health of their partners.
Men’s actual support of their pregnant wives was reflected at a higher level with 74 percent of men (of a
base of 650 male respondents who answered the question) reporting that they accompanied their wives
to prenatal clinics, or were present when the midwife visited their homes, while 97 percent of women
(of a base of 343 female respondents) reported that their husbands never prevented them from going
to prenatal clinics. Ninety-four percent of women also stated that their husbands never refused to buy
clothes to prepare for the baby in any of their pregnancies. Moreover, 96 percent of women reported that
they were never physically abused during pregnancy, and 95 percent stated that they were never forced
to have sex during pregnancy.
Despite the 68 percent of men who disagreed that it was primarily the woman’s responsibility to avoid
pregnancy — implying their acceptance of joint responsibility in reproduction — when it came to the
use of contraceptives, men’s use of condoms was very low. Out of 11 percent of women who answered the
question as to which contraceptive methods were being used, 9 percent reported men’s use of condoms
as a means of planned parenthood. This shows that the men left contraception largely to the women,
42 percent of whom used injection/implant, 25 percent of whom were on the pill, 16 percent of whom
used IUD and 5 percent of whom were sterilized. Of significance is that only 21 percent of women agreed
with the statement that their male partners would get angry if asked to use condoms. If, as reported by
the women, the majority of their men are not averse to using condoms why did such few women report
condom use as a means of contraception? This points, perhaps, to a gendered, cultural context in which
women do not feel entitled to ask the men, or want to please their male partners, or do not like condoms
as a method of contraception themselves.
Masculinity, well‑being and family health
69
5.7
Attitudes to HIV
HIV testing amongst both men and women was low. Only 4 percent of male and female respondents had
ever been tested for HIV. This is an area that requires intervention, particularly as 15 percent of males
in the 25–34 year age group, 13 percent in the 35–49 year age group and 3 percent in the 18–24 year age
group reported having transactional sex or sex with a commercial sex worker. As discussed in chapter
four, transactional sex and sex with a commercial sex worker were both found to increase men’s likeli-
hood of perpetrating non-partner sexual violence, which can include rape. Furthermore, 24 percent of
perpetrators of sexual violence admitted to having forced two to three women to have sex with them.
This pattern of multiple sexual partners, as well as the aforementioned low condom use by men, and
possible use of needles by some of the 49 percent of male perpetrators of IPV/ sexual violence who
admitted to the use of drugs (see chapter four) places both men and women at risk to HIV. Apart from
the fact that public awareness campaigns on HIV are not highly visible or sustained in Sri Lanka,
the stigma attached to HIV also mitigates against voluntary testing as observed in other studies on
HIV and health-seeking behaviours on the part of men (ICES, 2009, p.29). The expectation by women
of monogamous male partners may also be a reason as to why so few women think it necessary to get
tested for HIV. Of a base of 511 women, 82 percent of women in the CARE sample stated ‘definitely not’
to the question ‘how likely is it that your current/previous husbands/partners had sex with someone
else?’ while only 11 percent answered ‘probably not.’ Social attitudes and cultural expectations thereby
shape people’s practices toward health-seeking behaviour including voluntary testing for HIV.
The above data points to some significant aspects of gender relations when it comes to reproductive
health. The first is that negotiated contraception (particularly the use of condoms by males) is low,
even though men showed moderate levels of acceptance of their responsibilities relating to reproductive
health. This gap between male attitudes and practice in effect forces women to rely on a variety of
contraceptive methods to avoid pregnancy and shoulder the lion’s share of responsibility for planned
parenthood. Second, testing for HIV is very low, pointing to a sample population that does not consider
testing a necessity, even though men who engage in transactional sex or sex with commercial sex
workers, and/or are perpetrators of IPV/sexual violence on multiple female partners, subscribe to low
condom use or use needles when taking drugs constitute high-risk groups who are likely, in turn, to
transmit HIV to others.
5.8
Violence and its health impact
Findings on the prevalence of diverse forms of violence have been discussed in detail in chapter four of
this report. However, it is relevant to highlight here the data on the health impact of VAW as it not only
affects the women concerned but also overall family well-being.
Out of a base of 110 women who had experienced physical abuse by an intimate partner, 48 percent
reported being injured by husbands/male partners. Of this cohort, 20 percent reported being injured
three to five times, while 9 percent stated they were injured more than five times. Twenty-six percent
of women had to stay in bed because of injuries resulting from the physical violence. Sixteen percent of
women had taken days off work because of their injuries, while 32 percent had to seek medical attention
(see Tables 5.8 to 5.11).

Of the women who had experienced IPV, 23 percent had also miscarried, as opposed to the 14 percent of
women who had miscarried but were not victims of IPV. This indicates a link between IPV and miscar-
riage. Seven percent of women sampled who had never experienced IPV had also undergone stillbirths,
while the figure was 6 percent for those women who had experienced IPV, showing that in the case of
stillbirths, IPV was not an appreciable factor. However, 7 percent of women who suffered IPV/forced
sexual relations had undergone abortions in comparison to the 0.7 percent of women who had never
experienced IPV or non-partner sexual violence but who had had abortions (tables 5.12-5.14).

The data from the CARE study indicates that reporting by women of both IPV and non-partner sexual
violence is low, corroborating what other studies have also found of violence as a ‘hidden’ problem
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
72
(Jansen, 2006, p.8). In the CARE sample, only 32 percent of female victims of IPV who sought medical
aid had reported the violence at all. This points to continued underreporting by women of the problem.
Yet the figure of women (13 percent) who reported intimate partner physical violence to the police is
more hopeful than the 8 percent, or just 18 women, who had reported non-partner sexual violence to
the police. Thirteen percent of these women had, however, reported non-partner sexual violence to the
health services. Overall, only 10 percent of women victims of IPV or non-partner sexual violence had
told their families about the violence and the trauma they suffered.
The significant levels of suppression by women of their feelings of anger, hurt, vulnerability and inse-
curity following IPV necessarily has an impact on their mental health. It is not surprising therefore
that a strong correlative was found between women’s experiences of IPV and having suicidal thoughts.
Among women who had experienced IPV 25 percent of women reported ever having suicidal thoughts
compared with only 7 percent of women who never experienced IPV.
Significantly, 66 percent of women who had not experienced IPV were using contraception as com-
pared to the lower 54 percent of women who were victims of IPV, pointing to a link between IPV and low
contraception use. Corroborating this pattern, 3 percent of women who had not experienced IPV noted
that their partners had stopped/refused contraception in contrast to the 7 percent of women who were
victims of IPV and reported that their male partners had refused/stopped using contraception. This
indicates that non-violent, supportive men are more likely to encourage their partners to use contracep-
tion and use it themselves, as opposed to the men who perpetrate IPV.
Apart from the impact of male violence on wives and female partners, IPV has a direct bearing on
children. Studies have found that boys who are exposed to parental IPV show hyperactivity, aggres-
sion and destructive tendencies, while girls tend to experience anxiety and depression (Jayasinghe,
Jayawardena and Perera, 2009, p.275). As indicated in chapter four, the data from the CARE survey
shows that men who perpetrated IPV in adulthood also saw their mothers being beaten when they were
children, although this relationship did not emerge as statistically significant.

Summary
The data from the CARE study indicates several aspects of male mental health, as well as drivers of
childhood trauma, attitudes and practices relating to reproductive health, and the impact on women
of male perpetration of IPV and non-partner sexual violence. Economic pressures resulting from inad-
equate income, lack of economic assets and financial responsibilities as breadwinners and male heads
of households were found to be amongst the primary causes of male stress and lack of well-being, with
a commensurate moderate level of depression and suicidal thoughts found amongst the male sample.
Evidence was also found of male childhood trauma. Comprising not only of child sexual abuse (discussed
in chapter four) but also hunger, emotional neglect, public humiliation, beatings and absentee parents,
male respondents who participated in the CARE study were found to have experienced all of the above
in low to moderate levels. Of significance is that male respondents who were fathers reported less time
spent with their children either due to gendered norms of parenting, and/or time spent away from home
due to employment/migration. This points to a continuing pattern of aloof or absentee fathers, lack of
male bonding and positive male mentoring of children that can lead to feelings of emotional neglect in
children, affecting yet another generation.
Regarding reproductive health, while men’s support for their pregnant wives or partners was moderate
to high in terms of accompanying the women to prenatal clinics and mostly refraining from violence
and forced sex during pregnancy, their use of contraception was low, pointing to the fact that men left it
Masculinity, well‑being and family health

largely to their wives or girlfriends to bear the primary responsibility of planned parenthood. Similarly,
men’s attitudes and practices to HIV testing, even amongst those at higher risk of the infection, indicates
that health-seeking behaviour related to HIV remains a low priority, avoided by both the male and
female sample groups.
The CARE study also found the health impact of male violence on women to be significant. While
injuries due to IPV and non-partner sexual violence caused a significant proportion of women to seek
medical help or stay in bed, suicidal thoughts and miscarriages were also found to correlate to the vio-
lence. However, the problem remained largely underreported by women. Yet there can be no doubt that
growing up in a violent home can have a negative impact on the well-being of children, their develop-
ment and socialization, or other members of the family.
All of the above point to the fact that individual physical and mental health, attitudes and behaviours
cannot be taken in isolation but must necessarily be grounded and assessed in relation to the economic,
social, cultural and political contexts from which they emerge. The levels of stress experienced by men
as well as women in the CARE study imply that there are few avenues of release available for the majority
who do not resort to alcohol, drugs or violence. As a result there seems to be a tendency to internalize
the stress, which has a significant impact, in turn, on the well-being of both men and women.

Chapter 6:
Recommendations
The CARE study highlights for the first time in Sri Lanka an in-depth understanding of male perspec-
tives, behaviours and attitudes with regards to gender equality and gender-based violence. Men’s
experiences in childhood and how they ultimately impact their behaviour as adults is clearly brought
out in the study, thereby raising the need to deeply analyse the experiences in men’s own life cycles
from childhood to adulthood in order to develop interventions to positively impact their behaviours
and attitudes. Expression of men’s own attitudes toward and motivations for perpetration of violence
against women is an important perspective that is obtained as most policy and programming interven-
tions for gender equality and violence against women have been based on women’s own experiences
and perspectives. The lack of this insight could be a reason why interventions on gender-based violence
over the past decades have still not managed to reduce rates of violence against women significantly.
While the study does, however, emphasize the need to continue working with women and girls to reduce
violence against women, the resounding call is to work more closely with men in their various spheres
and capacities as individuals, as members of family units, their surrounding communities and societies
and, finally, as decision-makers in their places of work and policymakers.
The recommendations chapter highlights some key findings that will serve as the foundation for sug-
gestions in policy and programming approaches. These recommendations focus on interventions that
would primarily be presented from the perspective of breaking the cycle of violence at crucial stages of
a man’s life and working with men as allies for women’s empowerment.

Main findings
Described below are the critical findings from the CARE study across the themes of gender attitudes
and practices, violence perpetration and well-being and family health, which inform the crux of the
recommendations:
GEM Scale attitudes — men seem to have moderate gender equitable attitudes but
display contradictions in practice
While men’s responses show moderate gender equity in their everyday lives, on the GEM Scale, male
respondents yielded a higher percentage of gender inequitable attitudes This supposed gap between
ideology and practice — even if there is over-reporting by men on the latter — indicates a potential
space where men can change.
Women in Sri Lanka also hold gender inequitable attitudes — and often more inequitable than men’s
attitudes — particularly in terms of rape.
Furthermore, these attitudes explain why there continues to be a masculinization of government, tech-
nology and the corporate sphere even as individual men (as in the CARE sample) show moderate gender
equity in their everyday lives and practices in relation to decision-making, control of women’s dress
and mobility, and attitudes to equal pay.
Violence and GBV — attitudes to SGBV, sexual violence inclusive of rape and impunity
The study points to several contexts, drivers, and variables related to tmale perpetration of physical and
sexual violence against women, as well as men and boys, many of which are grounded in cultural at-
titudes about how to be a man. The study therefore makes a strong case for looking at male perpetration
of gender-based violence as one that is structurally supported through the acceptance and implementa-
tion of violence as a part of routine social relations from which dominant masculinity gains advantage.
The majority of the sexual violence captured fall within the IPV category inclusive of marital rape.
The key motivation factor reported for sexual violence inclusive of rape was male sexual entitlement.
Two thirds of the sample that perpetrated sexual violence inclusive of rape did so for the first time
between the ages of 20 and 29. The study also reveals that the level of impunity — from families,
communities and the law — for sexual violence inclusive of rape is quite high in Sri Lanka.
Almost one third of the men who perpetrate sexual violence inclusive of rape do this for the first time
between the ages of 15 and 19 years.
Impact of IPV on women’s health
The health impact of male violence on women was found to be significant. While injuries due to IPV
and non-partner sexual violence caused a significant proportion of women to seek medical help or stay
in bed, suicidal thoughts and miscarriages were also found to correlate to the violence.
The problem of IPV remained largely underreported by women. The significant levels of suppression by
women of their feelings of anger, hurt, vulnerability and insecurity following IPV necessarily has an
impact on their mental health.
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
76
Men’s experiences of violence
Many children, especially boys, experience some form of violence or neglect during childhood. Com-
prising not only of child sexual abuse but also hunger, emotional neglect, public humiliation, beatings
and absentee parents. Of significance is that male respondents who were fathers reported less time spent
with their children either due to gendered norms of parenting, and/or time spent away from home
due to employment/migration. This points to a continuing pattern of aloof or absentee fathers, lack of
male bonding and positive male mentoring of children that can lead to feelings of emotional neglect in
children, affecting yet another generation.
Men who experienced sexual, physical or emotional abuse during childhood are more likely to perpe-
trate violence against women in adulthood.
The findings on sexual abuse, particularly of boys, warrant urgent attention. This is important not only
for making visible the vulnerability of boys to sexual abuse, but also for tracing the impact it has on the
process by which the boys can become violent men, often targeting women with violence.
Sri Lankan men also experience homophobic attacks and sexual violence at the hands of other men.
Although the prevalence of male rape is much lower than rape of women, the community, legal and
medical support channels available to men who experience rape are far fewer.
Men’s well-being and health
Economic pressures resulting from inadequate income, lack of economic assets and financial respon-
sibilities as breadwinners and male heads of households were found to be amongst the primary causes
of male stress and lack of well-being; with a commensurate moderate level of depression and suicidal
thoughts found amongst the male sample.
Men who had multiple sexual partners or who engaged in transactional sex and sex with sex workers
were found to be more likely to perpetrate sexual violence against women.
Men’s attitudes to women’s health and reproductive and sexual health
Regarding reproductive health, while men’s support for their pregnant wives/partners was moderate
to high in terms of accompanying the women to prenatal clinics and mostly refraining from violence
and forced sex during pregnancy, their use of contraception was low, pointing to the fact that men left
it largely to their wives/girlfriends to bear the primary responsibility of planned parenthood.
Both men, even those in high-risk groups, and women reported very low rates of HIV testing, indicating
that health-seeking behaviour related to HIV remains a low priority for men and women in Sri Lanka.

Recommendations
Change socio-cultural norms regarding gender attitudes and masculinities
Engagement with the Education sector: The most effective way of reaching out to children is through
the school system. Awareness on gender equality issues and on gender-based violence must be raised
among children of school-going age. Educational materials that reinforce gender norms and attitudes
must be reviewed and revised. However, the formal education sector is the hardest to penetrate and
educationists have been largely unsuccessful in their efforts over the years. Reluctance on the part

77
of state education agencies to permit civil society organisations to carry out programmes within the
formal education system remains an impenetrable barrier. It would also be more effective to ensure
that school-based programmes are linked to sexual and reproductive health programmes.
Usage of gender-sensitive terminology for head of household concept: Usage of head of the household
terminology creates hierarchies within families and accords a higher status to the male and reinforces
his position of dominance even though it may be a woman who carries out the related responsibilities.
Although the terminology itself is gender neutral, society perceives the male to be the head of the fam-
ily unless there is no male. The data sheds light on the fact that not only a majority of men, but a large
proportion of women, believe the man to be the head of the household. The data also shows that the
percentage of males who said the title was shared was less than the women who thought so. A clear
state policy on the concept of head of the household is required. This policy must filter down to govern-
ment officials working with grassroots communities. It must also be clear policy that is adopted by the
state administration.
Below are some successful examples of working on men’s gendered attitudes and norms
Many success stories on working with men and boys have been documented. Men’s Action to Stop
Violence Against Women (MASVAW), a community-based social movement in North India works
with men and boys in universities and community settings on issues of GBV to bring about attitudi-
nal changes. Positive male role models have the potential to influence boys and men: White Ribbon
Ambassadors in Switzerland, mostly male politicians, have successfully been used in public awareness
campaigns on GBV. The Sonke Gender Justice Network works across Africa with men and boys to pro-
mote gender equality and prevent GBV. The ‘One Man Can’ Campaign encourages men to prevent GBV
and to advocate for gender equality and its aim is to promote supportive masculinities that will benefit
both men and women. MenCare, a Global Fatherhood Campaign coordinated by Promundo, Sonke and
the MenEngage Alliance, is an effort to promote men’s involvement as fathers and as caregivers by
providing support materials and research to women’s organizations, NGOs and government to imple-
ment campaign activities.
End impunity for violence against women
The data reinforces the fact that more interventions need to be carried out to address the lack of aware-
ness of the legal framework on violence against women among men and women.
Recognizing marital rape: The UN CEDAW Committee reviewed the report sent by the Sri Lankan
government in January 2011 and proposed detailed Concluding Observations to the government of
Sri Lanka on a number of issues.18 One recommendation was to review and extend the current criminal
law on marital rape, which only allows for a woman to accuse her husband of raping her if they are
judicially separated. The findings of this study indicate that very few women would in fact accuse their
husbands of raping them, as they believe that they cannot refuse sex with their husbands.
More focused and targeted interventions at grassroots level on marital rape are needed to dispel the
myth that a woman cannot refuse to have sex with her husband. The study also brings home the fact
that targeted interventions are necessary with both men and women if we are to dispel this notion.
The Sierra Leone Men’s Association for Gender Equality carried out an interesting project in collabora-
tion with civil society to lobby for three laws on gender. They used creative communication and media
tactics to spread awareness on the laws around the country. Effective strategies need to be designed to
ensure that the community is aware of the legal redress available where violence has occurred.
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
78
Improve health sector responses to GBV and men’s health and well-being
Engagement with the health sector: The importance of having a body of medical professionals who are
well-versed in issues such as supportive masculinities, GBV, male on male violence, men’s health and
gender equality is backed by the data in the study. Medical syllabi must reflect these broad-ranging
issues so that medical professionals have basic knowledge on these issues and are able to tackle them or
are able to refer them to appropriate parties/agencies. Male child abuse brought out in the data needs to
be tackled not only by civil society, but also by the medical community that has the expertise to pro-
vide guidance and direction. The medical profession needs to be called upon when designing strategic
interventions for gender-based violence and other related areas. A working relationship needs to be
established between civil society and the medical profession.
The Study also highlights the need to provide psychosocial services for men and boys as victims of
violence as a means of reducing their emotional stress levels and breaking the cycle of violence perpetra-
tion. Towards this, state and non-state agencies need to fully appreciate the importance of interventions
of this nature through research and advocacy initiatives.
The CARE study brings out the need to recognize homosexuals and/or homosexuality in order to
provide them with services and support in instances of physical and sexual violence that they face.
Toward this, working on decriminalizing homosexuality must continue, not only as a means to reduce
transmission of HIV (which is the national strategy) but also to improve their access to services.
Address ideologies of male sexual entitlement
Non-formal adult learning environments: The involvement of adult men and women in non-formal
adult learning environments such as in continuing professional development programmes and in
community-based adult education courses is an innovative method of reaching out to adults on at-
titudes to GBV and gender equality. Greater interaction of men through community-based groups such
as local club-based activities and involvement with community-based volunteer groups and religious
leaders who play an influential role in forming these norms must be explored.
Strengthen support for abused children
Lobby for psychosocial services and counselling services: It is imperative that more support systems for
children at primary and secondary level in schools are made available to identify children undergoing
trauma. Counselling centres in schools must be established at local level so that boys and girls may
access these services. ‘Expect Respect’, a programme run in an Austin public school in the USA by the
Centre for Disease Control, provided psychosocial support to children. The aim was to decrease men’s
use of domestic violence by providing support to children affected by trauma.
Work with colleges of pediatricians and colleges of psychiatrists on male child abuse: Colleges of
pediatricians and psychiatrists must be partnered with organizations working on child abuse to ad-
dress male child abuse and childhood trauma in a holistic manner. A multilevel approach with the
involvement of state agencies working with these groups, such as the Ministry of Women and Child
Affairs, Department of Probation and Childcare Services and National Child Protection Authority, is
needed to tackle the problem.
Address notions of masculinities and sexuality among youth
Sensitization in non-formal educational settings: Given the difficulties of accessing the formal
education system, an alternative method to access young girls and boys is through non-formal
Recommendations
79
educational settings. For example, through sports clubs, community-based learning centres and other
institutions providing non-formal education. Community-based non-formal learning environments
such as sports and fitness programmes, boy scouts and girl guides movements are other sites to
explore. The provision of career guidance in these spaces would reduce the stress youth face in terms
of unemployment and pressure of becoming the breadwinner. This method would ensure that school
dropouts are also targeted. It is also a means of accessing children more easily than through the formal
education system.
Sports as an entry point for children, adolescents and young adults: Programmatic interventions
need to explore different ways of accessing and influencing children and youth, especially with the
high numbers of absentee parenting and associated risks and vulnerabilities. Sports are a fitting
entry point to work on issues of GBV and gender equality with both men and women and boys and
girls. An example of a successful initiative is from Georgia where male role models such as rugby
players have been used in prevention-based activities around gender equality, respect for women and
rejection of violence. These messages have been taken to sports games, the media, to schools and to
youth correction facilities. Another example is using well-known cricketers to carry messages on zero
tolerance of GBV. This was an initiative of the GBV Forum in Sri Lanka a few years ago during the 16
Days of Activism on eliminating Violence against Women.
Using information, communication and technology: ICT is a powerful tool to reach children from a
very early age. Children and youth in today’s day and age are computer literate and are adept at using
the computer and mobile phones for internet research, electronic mail and also to access various social
networks such as Facebook, Twitter and My Space. The use of ICTs as tools to empower and to create
awareness on issues of gender equality and GBV to children and young adults should be explored.
ICT is also a useful tool to reach out to young males who are frequent users of computers.
Lobby for introduction of comprehensive sex education in schools: Introducing comprehensive sex
education in schools at secondary school level for both boys and girls while introducing modules on
sex education in teacher training institutes is extremely important. These modules must be prepared
by experts on child psychology and others such as education experts who can train teachers on how to
deliver the material to children. Delivery is as important as the preparation of the materials.
Engage with organizations working on adolescent and youth SRH: Organizations working on issues
surrounding youth, sexuality and SRH must incorporate issues such as gender equality, underage
sexual activity, violence against women and male on male violence in their programmes with youth
and adolescents. These organizations must also work with young males to create awareness on
supportive masculinities and on the importance of male involvement in reproductive health issues
such as family planning and pre- and postnatal visits.
Encourage positive parenting practices in the workplace
Work with men as allies for gender equality: It is important to ensure that men’s roles as fathers,
sons and brothers are also taken into account and not only their role as conjugal partners in the
family (Chopra, 2006, p.5). This approach enables society to think of men as partners more expan-
sively and is useful to engage men in the household and thereby also empower women (Chopra,
2006, p.4). This approach also brings men into the household in a positive manner, thereby involv-
ing them as partners within the home. Men need not be confined only to the economic and repro-
ductive sphere. We need to ensure that men also have the opportunity to care for their children. The
view that men cannot care for their children needs demystification (Chopra, 2006, p.3). Parenting
interventions have not focused sufficiently on the role fathers’ play and have focused exclusively
on the role of the mother (McAllister, Burgess, Kato and Barker, 2012, p.6). The father is ‘missing’ in
these interventions.
Broadening gender: Why masculinities matter
80
Introduce positive parenting policies and practices : The corporate sector has not been tapped into
sufficiently by development agencies and civil society in their work on gender transformation. The cor-
porate sector can influence potential reform initiatives, especially those that impact the business sector
directly and national reform initiatives indirectly. The corporate and public sector needs to put in place
policies and practices that encourage males to also share responsibilities within the home and engage
in caring for their children.
The ILO has several Conventions that seek to engage both men and women in sharing responsibili-
ties within the home and in the workplace. Sri Lanka has not ratified ILO Convention No. 156 (1981) on
Workers with Family Responsibilities. This Convention imposes an obligation on employers to put in
place measures that allow for both men and women to be responsible and to take care of their families.
The Convention aims to create equality of opportunity and treatment in employment and occupation
between men and women workers with family responsibilities. The Convention requires all ratifying
states to incorporate the above into national policy. Sri Lanka has also not ratified ILO Convention No.
175 (1994) on Part-Time Work. This Convention encourages part-time work for both men and women so
that they are able to combine their work and family commitments by working part-time. A strategic
intervention would be to engage with the corporate sector to create awareness on the value of these
Conventions and also to encourage corporations to lobby the State to sign onto these Conventions.
‘The Healthy Masculinity Action Project’, a grassroots movement in the USA, has begun an initiative
to eliminate gender stereotypes and to reduce GBV. One of their projects involves bringing together
over 200 industry leaders, which include those in the health, business, policy and education sectors to
engage with men and boys on how to uncover masculinities and create an environment where VAW,
girls and other men by men is not normalized and accepted. Engaging the business sector along with
other sectors is a strategic move to ensure interaction and networking among the different sectors.
Support further research in the field of masculinities for primary prevention of GBV
The analysis of heteronormative masculinities of men in Sri Lanka in relation to important influential
factors such as the 30-year civil war, tsunami and agricultural dependency, as well as the in-depth
analysis of risk factors, attitudes and experiences of violence and abuse, leading up to perpetration of
violence against women and men is lacking within the country. The CARE study provides many areas
for deeper analysis in order to fuel the development of plans of action/programming recommendations
for primary prevention of GBV. Toward this, technical capacities must be enhanced for further analysis
of data on gender-based violence and masculinities.
Working with women and girls
The study has also revealed that women play a major role in perpetuating stereotypes and strong norms
of masculinities within the home on issues such as male dominance, fatherhood roles, male involve-
ment/non-involvement in the household and masculinist notions. These myths need to be dispelled
through working with women and girls at a young age in different settings. It is important to target
women and girls, not in isolation, but together with men and boys, so that gender insensitive attitudes
of both sexes can be changed through self-reflection and comparison. Working with women on chang-
ing attitudes must continue.

PARTICIPANT’S INFORMATION LEAFLET
(Each participant must receive, read or have it read to him before the interview)
A study on Knowledge, Practices and Social Attitudes towards Gender and Gender Based Violence in
Colombo, Nuwara Eliya, Hambantota and Batticaloa districts
Introduction
Good day. My name is _________________. I am working with the organisation Social Indicator on a
project to better understand men’s health and relationships.
You are invited to volunteer to participate in a research study that is conducted in Sri Lanka. Before you
agree to participate in this study you need to fully understand what is asked of you and to be sure you are
completely happy with what is involved. If you do not understand the information or have any other
questions, feel free to ask.
Purpose of this interview
The purpose of this study is to collect information so we can understand men’s health, families and
relationships. We want to understand more about the lives of men in Sri Lanka: how men think, how they
have grown up, how healthy they are, their intimate relationships and how they relate to their families and
children.
Many people are concerned that men have many health problems and some have very difficult lives. Our
aim in doing this research is to learn more about men’s health and lives so that the information can be
used to develop ways of making them better. In order to really understand men we have to speak to a
large number of men living in all different circumstances, including those who are healthy and those who
are sick, those who have easier lives and those who have great difficulties. Because every man is
different, we are choosing men to interview for the research using chance – rather like throwing a dice.
We do not know anything about the lives of the men we are asking for interview before we start to talk to
them. You have been invited to participate because your household was one of the houses randomly
picked (by chance) from all the houses in this area.
We very much hope you will help us in our work as it is only by understanding all men that we can begin
to develop ways of making the lives better for those who need help. We ask to have an interview with
you; in this interview we will ask some information about you, things that have happened in your life that
may affect your health and about your relationships. The interview will take approximately an hour.
What procedures are involved?
You are being asked to complete a questionnaire. There are no right or wrong answers; we want to know
about you, your opinions or experiences. All your answers will be saved in the computer. This computer
will not record your name. The interviewer will ask you the questions and record your answers on the
little computer. He will be able to answer any questions you have during the interview. We will save the
responses that you give to the questionnaire using a unique identification number. This means that your
name will not be linked to the answers that you give. Information that is collected from you will be put
together with information from 2000 other men.
Are there any risks or discomforts from participating in this study?
We will conduct the interview in a private and safe place for both you and the researcher. The only
potential risk from participating in this study is that you may feel uncomfortable answering some of the
questions that may deal with some sensitive issues. The questions ask about your home, your family,
your childhood, your ideas about relations between men and women, aspects of your health, your
relationships with women and your views on laws and policies in your country.
Possible Benefits of this study
There are no direct benefits that you may get from participating in this study. However the information
collected from this study may be helpful in improving the health and lives of women and men in Sri
Lanka. Your answers will help us make sure that the views and experiences of men like you are taken
into account in designing future health and community programs.

skip over any question you do not want to answer and you are free to stop answering questions at any
time.
Confidentiality
All the information that you give in this study will be kept strictly confidential. The consent forms that
the researcher signs will be securely stored and access will be limited to the research team and study
sponsors. The consent forms cannot be linked to the answers you give to the questionnaire. The results of
the study will be presented in a respectful manner and no information which could enable anyone to
identify you personally will be reported. If you would like to be kept informed of the progress of our
project, we will be happy to share any reports or publication we produce with you.

These next questions ask about things you may have done over the course of your
whole life from your childhood up to the present day. The questions ask you how often
you have done a range of different things. You might find these more difficult to
answer but we really hope you feel free to answer them openly. The research is very
important in trying to understand the lives of men in Sri Lanka.
You will fill in the rest of the questionnaire yourself using this hand-held computer
device with an audio track that reads the questions and response options to you. I am
available to help you if you have any difficulties in completing the questionnaire or if
there is anything you do not understand.
I will not look at how you answer the questions unless you ask me to, and will not
look at the survey once it is complete so nobody will ever know that it is you who told
us particular things. We have organised it this way to protect your privacy because we
want you to feel free in answering the questions.

device with an audio track that reads the questions and response options to you. I am
available to help you if you have any difficulties in completing the questionnaire or if
there is anything you do not understand.
I will not look at how you answer the questions unless you ask me to, and will not
look at the survey once it is complete so nobody will ever know that it is you who told
us particular things. We have organised it this way to protect your privacy because we
want you to feel free in answering the questions.

you have done a range of different things. You might find these more difficult to
answer but we really hope you feel free to answer them openly. The research is very

Annex 2 –Female Questionnaire
Sri Lanka FEMALE Questionnaire
A Study on Knowledge, Practices and Social Attitudes towards
Gender and Gender Based Violence in Colombo, Nuwara Eliya,
Hambantota and Batticaloa districts
FEMALE QUESTIONNAIRE
1
STUDY CONDUCTED
BY SOCIAL INDICATOR
5
1
The female questionnaire will be administered by a female interviewer in a face-to-face interview using a Personal
Digital Assistant (PDA), without audio enhancement. The survey does not ask women about perpetration of crimes,
therefore does not need to be self-administered. Experiences from other studies indicate that women often benefit
from sharing their experiences of violence in face-to-face interviews with well-trained, compassionate interviewers.
Confidential
PARTICIPANT’S INFORMATION LEAFLET
(Each participant must receive, read or have it read to her before the interview)
A Study on Knowledge, Practices and Social Attitudes towards Gender and Gender Based Violence
in Colombo, Nuwara Eliya, Hambantota and Batticaloa districts
Introduction
Good day. My name is _________________. I am working with the organisation Social Indicator on a
project to better understand women’s health and relationships.
You are invited to volunteer to participate in a research study that is conducted in Sri Lanka. Before you
agree to participate in this study you need to fully understand what is asked of you and to be sure you are
completely happy with what is involved. If you do not understand the information or have any other
questions, feel free to ask.
Purpose of this interview
The purpose of this study is to collect information so we can understand women’s health, families and
relationships. We want to understand more about the lives of women in Sri Lanka: how women think,
how they have grown up, how healthy they are, their intimate relationships and how they relate to their
families and children.
Many people are concerned that women have many health problems and some have very difficult lives.
Our aim in doing this research is to learn more about women’s health and lives so that the information can
be used to develop ways of making them better. In order to really understand women we have to speak to
a large number of women living in all different circumstances, including those who are healthy and those
who are sick, those who have easier lives and those who have great difficulties. Because every woman is
different, we are choosing women to interview for the research using chance – rather like throwing a dice.
We do not know anything about the lives of the women we are asking for interview before we start to talk
to them. You have been invited to participate because your household was one of the houses randomly
picked (by chance) from all the houses in this area.
We very much hope you will help us in our work as it is only by understanding all women that we can
begin to develop ways of making the lives better for those who need help. We ask to have an interview
with you; in this interview we will ask some information about you, things that have happened in your
life that may affect your health and about your relationships. The interview will take approximately an
hour.
6
What procedures are involved?
You are being asked to complete a questionnaire. There are no right or wrong answers; we want to know
about you, your opinions or experiences. All your answers will be saved in the computer. This computer
will not record your name. The interviewer will ask you the questions and record your answers on the
little computer. She will be able to answer any questions you have during the interview. We will save the
responses that you give to the questionnaire using a unique identification number. This means that your
name will not be linked to the answers that you give. Information that is collected from you will be put
together with information from 1000s of other women.
Are there any risks or discomforts from participating in this study?
We will conduct the interview in a private and safe place for both you and the researcher. The only
potential risk from participating in this study is that you may feel uncomfortable answering some of the
questions that may deal with some sensitive issues. The questions ask about your home, your family,
your childhood, your ideas about relations between men and women, aspects of your health, your
relationships with men and your views on laws and policies in your country.
Possible Benefits of this study
There are no direct benefits that you may get from participating in this study. However the information
collected from this study may be helpful in improving the health and lives of women and men in Sri
Lanka. Your answers will help us make sure that the views and experiences of women like you are taken
into account in designing future health and community programs.
What are your rights as a participant?
Your participation in this study is entirely voluntary. You can refuse to participate or stop at any time
without giving any reason. Some of the questions are very personal. Please remember that you are free to
skip over any question you do not want to answer and you are free to stop answering questions at any
time.
Confidentiality
All the information that you give in this study will be kept strictly confidential. The consent forms that
you will be asked to sign will be securely stored and access will be limited to the research team and study
sponsors. The consent forms cannot be linked to the answers you give to the questionnaire. The results of
the study will be presented in a respectful manner and no information which could enable anyone to
identify you personally will be reported. If you would like to be kept informed of the progress of our
project, we will be happy to share any reports or publication we produce with you.
Costs
There is no cost to you for participating in this study.
Has this study received ethical approval?
Yes, the Ethics Review Committee of the Sri Lanka Medical Association has granted written approval for
this study. You may contact them using the following details should you have any concerns or queries:
Prof. Anoja Fernando, Sri Lanka Medical Association, 6, Wijerama Mawatha, Colombo 7

FINISH ONE – IF RESPONDENT HAS DISCLOSED PROBLEMS / VIOLENCE
I would like to thank you very much for helping us. I appreciate the time that you have taken. I realise that these
questions may have been difficult for you to answer, but it is only by hearing from women themselves that we can
really understand about their health and experiences in life.
From what you have told us, I can tell that you have had some very difficult times in your life. No one has the right
to treat someone else in that way. However, from what you have told me I can see that you are strong, and have
survived through some difficult circumstances.
Here is a list of organisations that provide support, legal advice and counselling services to women in STUDY
LOCATION. Please do contact them if you would like to talk over your situation with anyone. Their services are
free, and they will keep anything that you say private. You can go whenever you feel ready to, either soon or later
on.
FINISH TWO - IF RESPONDENT HAS NOT DISCLOSED PROBLEMS / VIOLENCE
I would like to thank you very much for helping us. I appreciate the time that you have taken. I realise that these
questions may have been difficult for you to answer, but it is only by hearing from women themselves that we can
really understand about women’s health and experiences in life.
In case you ever hear of another woman who needs help, here is a list of organisations that provide support, legal
advice and counselling services to women in STUDY LOCATION. Please do contact them if you or any of your
friends or relatives need help. Their services are free, and they will keep anything that anyone says to them private.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
