This chapter explores ways in which discursive psychology sheds light on how lan - guage justifies, conceals, and works to produce the dominance of men in intimate  relationships. We demonstrate two ways language can be deployed to achieve these  effects. First, the close examination of discourses about violence can reveal much  about the way violence against women is justified, minimized and ignored. Second,  attention to rhetorical devices deployed in these discourses, such as metaphor,  ambiguity, and marking strategies, can help in understanding how they are anchored  and reinforced in everyday conversations. These forms of discursive enquiry, and  other possibilities, open up ways of better understanding the dynamics of men’s  violence against women and opportunities for intervention to produce more equi - table practices.
