Gender violence and abuse of alcohol in leisure contexts Ruiz-Repullo, Carmen López-Morales, Juan Sánchez-González, Penélope Young people Gender Alcohol Gender violence The objective of this work has been to analyze the changes that have occurred in the last decade in the intensive consumption of alcohol and the relationship of this consumption with episodes of gender violence in the adolescent population. The sample consists of 24 in-depth interviews with 10 girls (41.66%) and 14 boys (58.33%) Spanish adolescents between 16 and 22 years. The results indicate that the intensive consumption of alcohol in girls leads to a signaling and criticism of the peer group and greater exposure to suffer some type of violence, especially sexual content. Boys recognize pressure and insist on girls and they express fear when they are alone or not accompanied, having to develop self-protection strategies. In the context of the heterosexual couple, the boys exert pressure to maintain sexual relations and the girls have to decide whether to yield to blackmail and / or threats or suffer a conflict and even the breakup of the couple. 2020-10-07T09:00:55Z 2020-10-07T09:00:55Z 2020-06-25 journal article Ruiz-Repullo, C., López-Morales, J., & Sánchez-González, P.
