Thinking about gay Jonathan Byers. Gay Jonathan who sees what his baby bro goes through and thinks well, people might whisper about them but he doesn't get nearly as much flack as Will. Who convinces himself he's never really looked at anyone so he's not gay. Probably.

Gay Jonathan who sees Nancy as an unattainable girl so perfect that it's easy to have a "crush" on her, especially when she's dating Steve (who came back, rushed in, grabbed a bat and swung when he didn't have to. Could have run away. Who was only there to apologize for being an asshole and wouldn't leave without at least yelling through the door. Who sometimes elbows Jon gently and smiles like they have a secret together.)

Jonathan who likes being Nancy's friend and confidante, who loves feeling close to another person without the pressure of sex or romance, who thinks his life would be so much easier if it was actually Nancy he had a crush on since they fought a monster in November of '83. Who sees Steve rush out of the bathroom at Tina's Halloween party with tears in his eyes and gets asked to make sure Nancy gets home okay and does so. Of course he does.

Jonathan who thinks that he must be in love with Nancy because what else could it be? Who thinks this is what he's supposed to feel so it's what he feels. Who follows her to a man who reads their relationship as something Jon wishes it could be but inst sure it's what it is, who thinks if some random guy sees it then it must be true. It must be.

Gay Jonathan who sleeps with Nancy Wheeler because he wants to be the kind of person who sleeps with girls, dates girls, loves girls, even if he isn't quite sure he likes it. Jon who goes back home to his brother possessed and Steve leading the pack of middleschoolers through the woods with a jacket and sunglasses and a nail-studded bat and doesn't have time to process anything because his baby brother needs him to be strong, to protect.

Who doesn't think about it after everything is done.

Jonathan who dates Nancy and thinks that he could be okay like this for the rest of his life. Who thinks that there are far worse ways to live than beside Nancy Wheeler.

Who becomes friends with Steve again in spring of '85 after the sting of his girlfriend dumping him then immediately hooking up with Jon has faded enough. Jonathan who has a fight with Nancy in May and gets drunk at Steve's, just them two, and kisses him hard. Who wants Steve to be the one he sleeps beside and touches and loves. Who gets kissed back, head cradled gently. Who isn't the first to pull away.

Jonathan who gets told by Steve that it isn't fair to Nancy. That Steve can't do it. Who thinks for a second he's going to get punched, called slurs, kicked out. Who's told that if he and Nancy really are broken up, come back in a week and they'll talk. Who thinks he could have done it, broken up with Nancy and wrapped his arms around Steve a week later and held on, and kissed, and wanted.

Jonathan who accepts Nancy's apology and apologizes himself the next day.

Jonathan who has a fight with her in July, worse than in May, because they don't understand the way the other struggles with prejudice and hardship. Who feels like he might be able to breathe because maybe they'll break up over it. Maybe they'll be hurt for a while but still be friends. Maybe he could go to Steve and ask for another shot, ask for a chance.

Jonathan who gets pulled into supernatural bullshitery again and can't find the emotional strength to sort through everything again between worrying about his job and brother and whatever the fuck is happening with the town.

Jon who moves to California with a little brother and a little sister, thinking maybe the distance will make it easier to break up with Nancy and not ruin any friendship they might have. Who meets Argyle his first day in school and thinks he can do it. Who talks to Steve on the phone after will and El have both filled in their babysitter on all the happenings he's missing from Hawkins.

Who hears Steve gush about Robin, his best friend, his soulmate, his other half. Who listens as Steve says, earnest and soft, that he's so glad he and Jon are friends. That he hopes California treats him well, that he loves him.

Jon who knows it's not in the way he wanted back in July. Who's pretty sure he's okay with that now.

Gay Jonathan who smokes with Argyle because there's nothing better to do and he's still doing long distance with Nancy because he doesn't know how to make the words I think we should break up come out of his mouth. Who watches Argyle smile at Will and El on the way to school and wants it to last forever. Who wants to hold his hand over the console and kiss his knuckles and thread his fingers through his long hair. Who loves so much he thinks he might cry with it, might blurt it out at any moment, might tell Nancy over the phone before he tells her they should end things.

Jonathan whose little sister has been arrested and whose mom isn't answering and who has to deal with Mike wheeler breaking both his siblings' hearts in one goddamn trip and can only think to call Argyle for help. Who drags his best friend into the insanity Hawkins has been going through for years because he can't think of anyone else he wants by his side. Who saves his sister and nearly punches Mike and doesn't hold Argyle's hand.

Jonathan Byers who rolls into his hometown to gate to hell opening up.

Idk I'm just thinking about gay Jonathan angst I guess...

Biography:

Dee is the youngest child of the Davis family. Her father is active duty in the Army until the events of season 2, and her mother is an old hippie who is scatterbrained but very kind. She also has an older brother by the name of Daniel, who goes by the nickname of Danny. Because of Don Davis(her father’s) job, she and the rest of the family grew up moving to different places every few years throughout her childhood, including a brief stint overseas. Around 1983, the Davis parents get a divorce, with Don and Dee settling in Hawkins, Indiana for Don’s new job at Hawkins National Lab, and Deborah(her mother) and Danny settling nearby in Indianapolis, so that the kids can see each other whenever they want.

Dee doesn’t fit in around Hawkins, which she’s quite used to. Luckily, the town misfit, Eddie Munson, takes a liking to her after meeting her by chance in the woods before the start of the ‘83-’84 school year, and she becomes a fixture around the Hellfire Club, the D&D club at Hawkins High run by Munson, though she herself doesn’t play.

Dee is aware of some of the strange phenomena happening around Hawkins, but she doesn’t get the full story on it until later seasons. During the events of season 1, she’s in Bradley’s Big Buy when Eleven steals several boxes of Eggos, witnessing her breaking the door with her mind. She also notices all the strange disappearances around that time, noting that such things are uncommon in a small town like Hawkins, due to her own experiences in similar small towns.

After her father loses his job due to the events of season 2 shutting down Hawkins Lab, she’s forced to first take a job at the local arcade to help with money while her father finds stable work outside of the military. Later, before the events of season 3, she takes a better-paying job at Starcourt Mall, at the Imperial Panda Chinese restaurant in the food court.

In the summer of ‘85, she becomes involved in the strange occurrences around town when she joins the “Scoops Troop” - the group of Steve Harrington, Dustin Henderson, Robin Buckley, and Erica Sinclair, investigating the strange Russian transmission that Dustin’s “Cerebro” radio picked up. Her keen perception and knowledge of military goings-on from her father help the group navigate the underground Russian base, and she assists the Party in both escaping said base, and fighting the Mind Flayer. After the Mind Flayer is defeated, she begins to keep a new journal, where she writes about everyone’s experiences with the Upside Down, including interviews from those involved, as well as strengths and weaknesses of the different monsters they’ve dealt with. She brings it with her on future excursions, making sure to log as much information as she can, both to help their own chances of survival, but also to keep a record of what’s happened in case they fail.

The fall after the events of season 3, she and Munson become involved romantically, after a long and storied friendship. During the events of season 4, she helps both protect Eddie from the angry townspeople, as well as works with the Party to stop Vecna. Unfortunately, she is unable to prevent the death of her boyfriend, as well as the death/revival of Max Mayfield, a longtime friend of hers from her time as a worker at the arcade.

Personality:

Dee’s most noticeable personality trait is how quiet she is. She is well-known to most of Hawkins for not talking much, and always having her head in a book or notebook, reading and writing, and supposedly ignoring everything around her. However, while she is naturally a quiet and soft-spoken individual, a lot of this is a front. She has a personality quite similar to her older brother, Danny: both the Davis siblings love to drink, smoke, cuss, fight, cause problems, and party. However, While Danny is open about these things, Dee hides them, putting on a persona of “quiet girl who keeps her head down and does as she’s told”, to keep herself out of the trouble Danny tends to get himself into. As such, she has a reputation for being the “responsible” one of whatever group she tends to be in. She’s also the type who shows her favor toward others through gentle ribbing, being quite the wise cracker once she gets to know someone. However, she also has a strong temper, and extremely dislikes being threatened or made to feel less-than, and will likely respond to such things with violence, especially if there’s a crowd(”People don’t fuck with you if they think you’re crazy enough to break their nose at the slightest provocation.”) Overall, she’s a difficult person to get to know, but once she’s familiar with someone and likes them, she’s fairly loyal to them.

Tropes:

'80s Hair: In between the events of season 2 and season 3, she trades her long hair in ponytails for a time period-accurate rocker shag cut, which she keeps for the rest of the series.

Badass Bookworm: Dee loves to read and is almost always seen with a book, but she’ll also fight anyone who crosses her or her loved ones without a second though.

Because You Were Nice to Me: She is often the most loyal to those who treat her with kindness, being willing to make their enemies hers if she likes them enough.

Beware the Quiet Ones: Most of Hawkins High knows her as “the girl who never talks, but who broke Carol Perkin’s nose in the cafeteria because Carol dumped a carton of chocolate milk on her”.

Big Brother Worship: Because her family moved around so much, and because of her own introversion, Danny was Dee’s only friend for a very long time(until the divorce and subsequent move to Hawkins). Danny and Dee do fight, like siblings do, but Dee is always in his corner with(almost) anything he does, usually being the one to bail him out of jail or any other unsavory situation he finds himself in.

Cigarette of Anxiety: Dee is already a chain smoker, but the habit gets worse and the amount of cigarettes she smokes goes up the more stressed she is. Seasons 3 and 4 see her smoking like a chimney when she’s able.

Combat Pragmatist: Dee is not above fighting dirty to win any fights she’s in. She’ll bite, she’ll scratch, she’ll kick below the belt, she’ll run away and hide only to attack while her opponent’s back is turned. She has no qualms with any of it. The goal of any fight she’s in is to win, at any cost.

Cowardly Lion: She is understandably terrified of things relating to the Upside Down during the events of season 3 and 4, but though she complains and bellyaches about her fears, she never hesitates to be one of the first to rush to the aid or defense of anyone who needs it during these situations. This ends up going away entirely by the end of Season 4, with her becoming almost suicidally unhesitant to throwing herself in the line of danger to protect others.

Creepy Loner Girl: What most of Hawkins thinks she is. The Hellfire Club, the Party, and a few others know that’s only one facet to her.

Dad the Veteran: Dee’s father, Donald “Don” Davis, is active duty military until the shutdown of Hawkins National Laboratory. Because of the circumstances of the shutdown, he is offered a chance for honorable discharge, and he takes it, being tired of the constant moving and secrecy. Because of his military experience, Dee knows quite a bit of related information, which comes in handy during the events of the show.

Daddy's Girl: She’s not particularly close to either parent at the start of the series, but she clearly favors her father over her mother. Though her mother Deborah is kinder and more present for her children, and Don is more hands-off and less present overall, Dee chooses to live with her father after their divorce, specifically because he pays less attention, which she prefers(”hard to get caught doing crime when nobody’s looking out for that behavior”). Over the course of the series, they do become closer, in their own way.

Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?: During the scene where the kids shoot fireworks at the Mind Flayer, Dee screams at the creature to “go fuck itself”. During the events of the story “The Search for Heather Cooper”, when the group comes across a Demogorgon in the wild, she uses a lighter and a can of hairspray as a makeshift flamethrower to take it down, and after its death, she coldly comments that she “hoped it hurt like a motherfucker.”

Do Not Call Me "Paul": Her first name is Dawn, but she does not like that name and will correct anyone using it almost immediately, nor will she respond to anyone using it. It’s a huge source of contention between her and her mother Deborah, who only calls her by her first name.

Establishing Character Moment: The first time her future lover, Eddie Munson, meets her, she’s sitting atop a picnic table she “found” out in the woods(Eddie’s selling area specifically), writing in a journal and listening to something loud on her Walkman, while also smoking a bowl of weed from a custom hand-blown pipe she brought with her from her time living in California. Eddie’s almost immediately smitten.

Expository Hairstyle Change: Dee’s haircut during the time in between seasons 2 and 3 is meant to show a bit of personal growth, both in her coming into her own as a budding woman, as well as bringing her into the era proper. Beforehand, she has long hair that she simply braids or pulls into a ponytail to not have to worry about it, but the closer she gets to her friend(and crush at this point) Eddie, the more she wants to express herself in her own way.

Everyone Can See It: Once Dee becomes part of the Party as of the end of season 3, multiple members of said Party begin trying to get her and Eddie to confess their feelings to each other. Steve and Robin, who found out through a conversation during the truth serum, both push Dee to be more open to him, and Dustin and Mike, who find out through simply watching the two react to each other, try to push Eddie to do the same, assuring him that he is in fact good enough for her.

The Face: For Danny, mostly. Being the “good Davis kid,” she tends to be the one bailing him out, and though most of Hawkins High is wary of her, most adults around town see her as a quiet but well-behaved young lady, looking out for her rebellious older brother. Officer Callahan is one of the only ones who sees through her ruse, but nobody else believes him.

Fictional Fan, Real Celebrity: She has multiple posters in her room of her favorite musicians that she thinks are handsome, including Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, Eddie Van Halen of Van Halen, and (to the teasing of Munson) Jon Bon Jovi.

Fire-Forged Friends: How she becomes friends with Steve, Robin, and the others from the Scoops Troop, and the Party in general.

First Friend: Eddie Munson becomes the first friend she ever makes outside of her own older brother.

Friendless Background: Before Eddie pulls her into the Hellfire Club.

Hyper-Awareness: An important part of Dee’s personality is her keen perception. She tends to notice small details that are often overlooked by others, such as Hopper’s bracelet in season 1, and that though most of the Upside Down’s weaknesses are based around fire, they still don’t seem to like water that much either.

I Don't Want to Ruin Our Friendship: Her excuse for refusing to tell Eddie about her crush on him. (it does not, in fact, ruin their friendship.)

Insult of Endearment: The more she likes someone, the more likely she is to crack jokes at their expense. Eddie’s musical tastes are a common target, as is Steve and Danny’s thickheadedness, and some of Dustin’s more annoying quirks(she gets particularly annoyed at his tendency to call everything “(blank)-Gate” in season 4). The only exception to this rule is Officer Callahan, who she insults out of her dislike for cops, him especially.

Jade-Colored Glasses: Dee becomes extremely jaded after the events of season 4. Losing her boyfriend and one of her other closest friends causes a hardening of her heart that strongly influences how she behaves and interacts with others during both the events of “The Search for Heather Cooper” as well as the (upcoming) events of season 5.

Laughing Mad: Dee has a mental breakdown during season 3, specifically while Dustin and Suzie sing the Neverending Story theme while the car she’s riding in is being chased by the Mind Flayer, including both hysterical laughter and tears.

Last-Name Basis: Because of her experience growing up as a military brat, she tends to refer to people this way. As she gets closer to certain people, this can and often does change.

Mature Younger Sibling: Compared to Danny, who is known for being reckless and a troublemaker, Dee is seen as such. It’s partially a ruse, as Dee is just as much of a troublemaker as her brother - just better at not getting caught.

Military Brat: Dee spent most of her childhood moving from military base to military base because of her father’s enlistment.

Misunderstood Loner with a Heart of Gold: To most of Hawkins, Dee is a weirdo, an introvert, and prefers to be by herself. To those who know Dee, she’s loyal, emotional, and cares deeply for those who are in trouble.

My Beloved Smother: Dee loves her mother dearly, but finds her incredibly overbearing and refuses to live with her after her parents split. She and her mother have very conflicting personalities, and Deborah’s refusal to respect her name change and her interests in favor of trying to push her to be more “girly” has strained their relationship.

New Transfer Student: She starts attending Hawkins High at the beginning of the ‘83-’84 school year.

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: She gives this to several people, including both Carol Perkins(who bullied her in the cafeteria at school), and Carol’s boyfriend Tommy H.(who attacked her outside school as payback for what she did to Carol)

No Social Skills: Before she gets comfortable with someone, she has this issue. She’s quite awkward, stuttering and refusing eye contact, speaking in as small sentences as she can get away with.

Odd Friendship: With several people, including Chief of Police Hopper, a local nurse at Hawkins PD by the name of Heather Cooper(a friend’s OC), and later on, Steve Harrington.

Parental Neglect/Obliviousness: Both of the Davis parents love their children very much, but neither are particularly great at being parents. Don Davis tends to throw himself entirely into his work, ignoring household duties and his family to focus on his job. Deborah is more involved with her children’s lives, but not by much; she is often too busy trying to sort her own life issues out to give either child too much attention, and she tends to try to mold them into the children she wants them to be, as opposed to letting them be themselves. As a result, Dee isn’t particularly close to either parent, which she honestly prefers anyways.

Pint-sized Powerhouse: Though she’s a very small young woman, she’s not only strong, she also knows how to use several other factors to her advantage in a scuffle.

Plausible Deniability: A running joke between her and her father is this phrase. Don cannot talk about his work with his children, as it’s usually classified to civilians, and Dee doesn’t tell him about what she gets up to when he’s not around. When Dee begins to get involved in the supernatural happenings around Hawkins, she has to invoke this to her father, to protect him.

The Power of Acting: Many of the adults around town, including most of Hawkins PD(with the exception of Officer Callahan, who Dee dislikes a lot), see Dee as a well-behaved and dutiful child because of this.

The Quiet One: Even after getting to know people, Dee tends to be one of the more silent ones in a conversation. She’s better at one-on-one conversation, but even so, she prefers to sit quietly and enjoy the company of her loved ones as opposed to being an active participant.

Rebellious Spirit: Dee is prone to this. She loves to smoke, drink, and cause problems, including vandalism and theft. She’s also great at hiding it.

The Reliable One: Dee is this to her own family. Even before her parents’ divorce, she was usually the one around the house handling most of the cooking, cleaning, and bailing Danny out of trouble. It doesn’t change when it’s just her and her father, either.

Shrinking Violet: Dee is quite shy and introverted, and will usually keep to herself in a crowd unless it’s especially important.

Siblings In Crime: Dee and Danny are this in spades. The main difference between the two, is Dee is better at avoiding the authorities than her older brother.

The Sneaky Guy: Dee uses her small stature to her advantage, being able to fit into small spaces and hiding easily. She’s also handy at lockpicking, and tends to be quite the eavesdropper. She’s modeled after what I know of the Rogue class in D&D(i dont know much admittedly lmao), so she fills those kinds of roles when necessary during plot stuff.

Spotting the Thread: Dee is naturally a very perceptive person, and usually one of the first to notice when something isn’t quite right.

Team Mom: She’s one of the first to leap into action when anyone in the party, especially the younger ones, are in trouble. She also tries to keep supplies on hand to help the others, such as a basic first-aid kit and emergency rations and water.

Tragic Keepsake: After Eddie’s death, she takes his bandana and rings as a keepsake. She also ends up with his battle vest, but she gifts it to Dustin in the end.

Violently Protective Girlfriend: Though it never ends up actually happening, she’s threatened to fight many of Eddie’s rivals and enemies for him, including Jason Carver. Eddie never allows her to, as he is always concerned that his own reputation will cause her trouble, but she doesn’t really care.

Vitriolic Best Buds: The best way to know if someone friends with Dee is if she teases them mercilessly. She and Eddie are this even after becoming a couple.

⌜ ⁰⁰¹ diana prince. aiysha hart. she/her. cisfemale. ⌟ looks like DIANA PRINCE has joined the search for the missing mutants. the PHYSICALLY 36 / 5000 YEAR OLD is known as WONDER WOMAN and works alongside THE JUSTICE LEAGUE. they were spotted recently in GOTHAM, hopefully they’ll have some luck finding the missing mutants.

hi bbies ! here’s my love diana. i can’t wait to plot / write w u all :D

i’ll be using a mix of diana’s cinematic appearances as well as comic influences in my portrayal of diana!

diana met steve when he quite frankly crash landed on themyscira, told the amazon’s about the war to end all wars and diana insisted that taking down what was so obviously ares was the duties of the amazons. and that if they weren’t going to go, at the least, she had to, to defeat him once and for all. in doing that not only did she put an end to the threat that was ares but she lost someone near and dear to her, steve trevor

steve did mean a lot to her. he is ultimately the foundation of her belief system ??? he taught her SO MUCH in their time together and although it’s been ages since then, diana still holds it very close to her heart. needless to say, shit talk steve and she’ll break ur jaw

i’m also keeping it canon that diana stepped away from man’s world between 84 and BVS. she was so concrete in her belief that once ares was dead, that meant men could live among one another peacefully but then ww2 happened. the atomic bomb. the cold war. vietnam. it all kept happening and diana didn’t understand why. she didn’t understand why mankind couldn’t live in harmony. it hurt her to realize that ares wasn’t the sole influence of the hatred that brought on wars, but it was man itself.

soooo, she didn’t pop back up actively/consistently until bvs happened. diana’s reluctance to put more of her friends/colleagues on the front lines after having lost steve (twice lmao) to it is still very much alive and well to this day and it hurts my heart tbqh

diana became a founding member of the justice league, alongside batman and superman who she now considers her closest friends and allies.

as far as how i plan on playing diana, she’s a big ol’ softie. a badass with a great ass. bi icon. i also lowkey took the “A BABY!!!” thing from ww and RAN with it. diana loves babies, loves kids, loves grown ass adults and will mother any and everyone if they give her the chance. so if you’re in need of a mom, hit my line !!!!!!

diana has years and years of amazonian combat training beneath her belt as well as expert weaponry and divinity given her demi-goddess status

i’m also a lil extra and have done diana’s natal chart in the past and diana is a fucking aries THROUGH AND THROUGH. she shares a majority of the positive and negative traits of an aries, the most notable being that she’s OPTIMISTIC, energetic, courageous and incisive. however she also heavily portrays some of the negative qualities of an aries, for instance - she’s incredibly IMPULSIVE, confrontational and at times can be rather stubborn (not in an arrogant way, more so just set in her beliefs).

diana has a tendency to think with her heart before her head and though sometimes it can be a good thing, there are rare times where it’s the exact opposite. she’s aware of this quality and often beats herself up about it but there’s something inside of her that wills her toward what she thinks is right.

U.S. Golf Industry Unites to Launch #inviteHER Campaign

WE ARE GOLF, LPGA Women’s Network Encourage Female Participation Through ‘Power of Invitation’

The U.S. golf industry – driven by WE ARE GOLF, a coalition of leading organizations working together to communicate the game’s economic, charitable, environmental and fitness benefits – launches its #inviteHER campaign for current golfers to encourage the women in their lives to start playing.

Powered by the LPGA Women’s Network and WE ARE GOLF’s Women’s Task Force, golfers – men and women alike – are encouraged to bring friends, colleagues and family to join them on the course through online resources and social media assets. The #inviteHER movement seeks to create an enjoyable, welcoming experience for those interested in trying the game or picking it back up – whether through a group lesson, complimentary clinic, driving range session or on-course experience.

“The appetite for golf is at a historic level with a latent demand of 38 million Americans,” says Steve Mona, CEO of World Golf Foundation, administrator of WE ARE GOLF. “Last year, 35 percent of the game’s 2.6 million new players were female and we are confident #inviteHER is a huge step in the right direction to continue increasing this number while making the game more inclusive.”

#inviteHER’s primary objective is to grow awareness and participation among women and girls through the power of an invitation from one of the 24 million American golfers. The game should more closely mirror U.S. demographics as only 24 percent of the current golf population is female.

“Women want to be invited to the game and it’s our duty to give them that opportunity at one of our nation’s 15,000 local facilities,” says Jane Geddes, Executive Director of the LPGA Amateur Golf Association and Chair of WE ARE GOLF’s Women’s Task Force. “We are committed to promoting an environment that makes all females feel more comfortable on the course so they develop into lifetime golfers.”

Want to get involved? #inviteHER encourages all golfers to support the movement by posting on social media about how they plan to encourage women to take up the game.

To join the conversation, visit the LPGA Women’s Network social media hub. Use #inviteHER and tag @wearegolf (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), @LPGAWomen (Twitter) and @LPGAWomensNetwork (Facebook, Instagram).

About WE ARE GOLF

Annually, WE ARE GOLF hosts National Golf Day in Washington, D.C. to communicate these industry messages to Members of Congress, the Executive Branch and regulatory agencies. The event’s goal is to ensure that laws and regulations that impact the golf industry are fair and appropriate to an industry that generates more than $84 billion in economic impact annually, impacts close to two million American jobs and generates nearly $4 billion in charitable giving each year.

When Lying Is normally The Better Option

One of the most hard businesses to obtain a loan modification from is definitely Wells Fargo, also known as Wachovia. not desire to pass away before my time: Home Violence in West Africa. We allow lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and HIV-affected neighborhoods and allies to end all forms of violence through organizing and education, and support survivors through counseling and advocacy. Change in jobs and behaviors towards gender equity in romantic relationships and gender norms.

The European Domestic Assault Collaboration contains representation from different directorates within the Trust, the Police Service Northern Ireland, Women's Help, Gents Action Network, the Housing Professional, NSPCC, Barnardos, The American Education and Library Board, the Probation Table for Northern Ireland, the General public Prosecution Program and additional regional agencies and organisations.

Sexual violence can become divided into three types: (1) the use of physical power to compel a person to employ in a intimate take action unwillingly, whether or not really the work is usually completed; (2) an attempted or completed intimate take action regarding a person who, because of illness, impairment, or the influence of alcohol or additional drugs, or because of intimidation or pressure, can be incapable to understand the nature or condition of the act, decline involvement, or connect unwillingness to engage in the action; and (3) abusive sexual contact.

We concentrated the search on intervention research assessing passionate partner assault as an end result measure and on magazines in British and Spanish from the last 11 years (2004-2015).
