Therefore, domestic violence is what occurs in the "dome", the house, the home.

Gender violence, on the other hand, is that which occurs against women "because they are”, both inside and outside the home, at work or in any other area of public life. This type of violence is based on the supposed superiority of one sex over another and its manifestations are very varied.

In the article entitled, “Research on domestic violence in the 1990s: Making distinction” explains that abuses are committed in relationships in which there is a palpable inequality between individuals, that is, a totally asymmetric relationship. In these cases, the violence is carried out by individuals who have power, control and authority over the persons over whom interfamily violence is committed, in these cases the victims are in a position of constant subordination and obedience. The aggressors consider their legitimate attitude, since they understand that the aggressed people are objects that belong to them and they are not people with the capacity to think and act for themselves and that they have their own rights.
