this is untrue. those % included male on female violence. someone being a lesbian NOW doesn't mean they never dated men in the past.
"Most bisexual and heterosexual women (89.5% and 98.7%, respectively) reported having only male perpetrators of intimate partner violence. Two-thirds of lesbian women (67.4%) reported having only female perpetrators of intimate partner violence"
this means the adjusted, verifiable female-to-female intimate partner violence was:
lesbians: 29.5%
bisexuals: 7%
with hetero IPV at 34.5%
rather than the figures others share online:
"Violence by an Intimate Partner -- The lifetime prevalence of rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner was:
For women:
- Lesbian – 43.8%
- Bisexual – 61.1%
- Heterosexual – 35.0%"
