This study highlighted that a significant number of women in Bangladesh approve of violence by their husbands, which could be a major obstacle to the reduction of violence in society. Further, the results indicate a significant correlation between women's autonomy-in terms of decision-making, mobility, freedom from threatening sexual relations with their husbands, and access to and control over economic resources- and their approval of IPV. Strengthening women's autonomy emerges as a vital strategy for decreasing the acceptance of IPV, advancing gender equality, and enhancing the overall well-being of women
