Abstract
The present study began from the idea that the reality of sexual violence is more complex than the traumatic event itself, in both temporal and social dimensions. Therefore, I take a more phenomenological approach to a phenomenon which has been primarily studied in its psychological, medical and clinical dimensions and is characterized by a double invisibility regarding both everyday life and sexual violence itself. The approach used here makes it possible to describe specific patterns in the victims' Conducts of Everyday Life and acquire greater understanding of the mutual relationship between the victims, their social surroundings and society, according to the chosen research perspective of subject-orientated sociology.
