abstract="This article is based on analysis of 76 in-depth qualitative interviews conducted with homeless women in Los Angeles. What is revealed are three patterns of street enculturation-&quot;low-,&quot; &quot;medium-,&quot; and &quot;high street&quot;- which are linked to attitudes women professed to hold about violence. In essence, the degree to which a woman had adopted a &quot;street orientation&quot; is seen to influence how she spoke of violence during earlier portions of the interview. However, several &quot;medium-street&quot; and &quot;high-street&quot; women subsequently acknowledged (directly or indirectly) that they were &quot;fronting&quot; for the interviewer to preserve a tough façade. When they opened up about their real feelings, the extent to which they had internalized the trauma of violence was revealed. Implications of these findings are explored.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
