Abstract
The study explored revenge fantasies as a response to perceived injustices among Indian Hindu women amid the prevalent gender-based violence. A mixed-method design with 52 women (18-56 years) was used to collect their drawings and narratives depicting revenge fantasies, demographics, the Traumatic Events Questionnaire, and the Injustice Experiences Questionnaire. Participants highlighted non-family events with strangers as perpetrators, preferring avoidance as the common revenge fantasy. Dominant themes included gender bias, sexual violence, body shaming, and feelings of inferiority. Passive aggression/forgiveness as a drawing indicator correlated negatively with Injustice Experiences Questionnaire, offering insights into revenge fantasies toward unjust events among Hindu women.
