Abstract

Objective: to unveil the reasons why women stay in marital relationships marked by violence.
Method: a qualitative study, grounded on the Oral History method, carried out with 29 women
victims of marital violence monitored by a Court of Domestic and Family Violence against Women in
Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. The data were collected between September and December 2020 through
individual interviews and analyzed in the light of the Theory of Everyday Life. Results: the women’s
Oral History points to non-perception of the abuse situation at the beginning of the relationship
and reveals the belief in the possibility of controlling the episodes of violence and the impairment
of psycho-emotional health. The expectation that the partner will change his position in marital
everyday life is added to this. Conclusion: the narratives unveil the complexity involved in the
repetition of everyday life, which means that many women, even though they already recognize
themselves as experiencing violence, are unable to break the relationship.
