Sex crimes against women are on the rise in the UK
A recent study found that more than two-thirds of women in the UK who run for their health have experienced sexual victimization.
According to the British newspaper The Guardian, a study on sexual assault and violence conducted by the University of Manchester found that women who run are sexually assaulted by men on a daily basis, but only 5% of these are reported to the police. It became clear that it would remain.
According to the report, women who run have suffered threats, abusive language, and objects thrown at them, and many women have given up running after receiving threats that hint at sexual assault.
In addition, 58% of women who were running were verbally abused, 19% were followed, and 7% were forced to look at their exposed bodies by men.
In the survey, 13% of women surveyed said they had been physically victimized while running, and 7% said they had been sexually victimized.
This kind of ethical deterioration in the UK has been reported not only for women in sports, but also in workplaces and public places.
