摘要

基于性别的暴力是街头女性性工作者面临的一个主要公共健康问题，特别是在孟加拉国等中低收入国家。关于潜在问题存在巨大的知识差距;因此，基于联合国人口基金(UNFPA)于2021年收集的二手数据，作者旨在通过探索性别暴力的患病率及其严重程度的相关因素，为文献做出贡献。在孟加拉国，据透露，大约95%的性暴力受害者经历过各种形式的性别暴力。身体暴力和性暴力的发生率分别超过81%和78%。值得注意的是，超过40%的女同性恋者经历过各种形式的性别暴力。结果还显示，年龄、受教育程度、月收入、婚姻状况、群体性别、费用谈判、客户负荷和是否使用安全套对性别暴力的严重程度有显著影响。建议政策制定者考虑相关因素影响的程度和方向，采取适当行动，减少性别暴力在小女孩中流行，并帮助她们获得其他工作，这将有助于实现若干可持续发展目标。

Prevalence and Associated Factors of Severity of Gender-Based Violence Among Street-Based Female Sex Workers in Bangladesh

Gender-based violence (GBV) is a major public health issue for street-based female sex workers (SBFSWs), particularly in low- and middle-income countries like Bangladesh. There is a vast knowledge gap regarding the underlying issue; therefore, the authors aimed to perform this study to contribute to the literature by exploring the prevalence and associated factors of the severity of GBV based on secondary data collected from SBFSWs by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in 2021. In Bangladesh, it was revealed that about 95% of the SBFSWs had experienced GBV of any form. The prevalence of physical and sexual violence was more than 81% and 78% among SBFSWs, respectively. It was worthwhile to note that more than 40% of SBFSWs experienced all forms of GBV. Results also revealed that age, education, monthly income, marital status, group sex, negotiation for fees, client load, and consistent condom use had a significant effect on the severity of GBV among SBFSWs. Policymakers are recommended to take proper actions considering the magnitude and direction of the effects of the associated factors to reduce the prevalence of GBV among SBFSWs and help to access other jobs, which will contribute to improving several Sustainable Development Goals.
