Violence and abuse within same sex relationships have not received the attention they merit as significat psychosocial health issues. The lesbian and gay community has reached a developmental milestone which allows critical examination of same sex relationships and the identification of problems which include physical, emotional, and psychological violence. A literature review reveals a dearth of articles on violence within same sex relationships. External and internalized homophobia are cited as factors which may contribute to low self-esteem experienced by gay males who may be abusive in their relationships. Intervention models described are individual psychosocial treatment, individual psychotherapeutic treatment, and group treatment
