A new research study by the Australian Institute of Criminology has revealed how high rates of violence among outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMCGs) were increasing among younger members, and that partners of members are significantly more likely to be victims of domestic violence.
It found traditional gender norms which promote male dominance, aggression, strength, and violence-supportive attitudes were reflected in the OMCG lifestyle and were "well established as key determinants of violence against women".
