Interpretation and comprehension, both of the violations and of the perpetrators&rsquo; sense-making of themselves following the abuse, are central analytical tenets. Thus, we will be able to shed light on how these men interpret their own actions. We examine self-conceptualization, interpretation of acts of sexual violence, situational factors, background factors, life situation and conditions, and motivations, rationalizations and justifications in men who have committed this type of sexual violence.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/h2><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"t2-accordion-item wp-block-t2-accordion-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"t2-accordion-title\">\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"t2-accordion-trigger\" id=\"method\" aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-2\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\tMethod\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-closed-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-add\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12 19c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C11.097656 18.519531 11 18.285156 11 18v-5H6c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h5V6c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C11.480469 5.097656 11.714844 5 12 5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C12.902344 5.480469 13 5.714844 13 6v5h5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13h-5v5c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C12.519531 18.902344 12.285156 19 12 19Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-open-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-remove\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M6 13c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h12c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-accordion-item__inner-container is-layout-flow\" id=\"accordion-panel-2\" aria-labelledby=\"method\" role=\"region\" hidden>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n<p>This project uses primarily qualitative methods.
