gaystarnews.comTwo women who suffered a violent homophobic attack on a London bus are highlighting why hate crime law should also protect people on the basis of gender.
A new report by the charity Citizens UK shows that women are three times more likely to experience sexual violence and threats than men.
And it found that 33.5% of hate crimes already have gender as a factor. Meanwhile the majority of women who suffer a hate crime don’t report it, the study found.
Moreover, that figure is even higher among trans and non-binary people who suffer a hate crime. 67.7% of them have never reported it.
