In China, the definition of domestic violence is usually limited to direct physical and mental harm to family members. About a quarter of Chinese families have been reportedly affected by domestic violence to different degrees, with most victims being women who have lacked effective legal protection for a long time. In response, Chinese feminists advocated the implementation of the Anti-domestic Violence Law (ADVL). Through judicial reforms, the Supreme Court of China has urged local courts at all levels to establish Family Law Divisions so that they can implement the provisions of ADVL better. However, due to compromises made before it was finalized and the restrictions of the Chinese legal system, its effectiveness is still limited, making it difficult for Chinese female victims of domestic violence to obtain sufficient support from the courts. The process Chinese feminists have undertaken to put forward their ideas regarding this Law has only just begun
