  ABSTRACT: For several decades, the world has been wrestling with addressing the root causes of gender-based violence (GBV), particularly against women and girls. In the same discourse, there is sharp disagreement over what constitutes violence against women, some of which were briefly reviewed here. The disagreement exists amid a growing number of attempts to explain why women face violence from men. It has been a polarized dialogue—weakening the “ability to deepen and widen” interventions against GBV. In this paper, some understanding of how polarized dialogue on GBV has been exploited by men to inflict all forms of pain on women is provided.
