Irish views on sexual assault and gender violence vary widely, with mixed results in a new EU study.
A recent European Commission study found that 13% of Irish people believe women sexually assaulted while under the influence of alcohol or drugs are partially responsible, ranking 7th lowest in the EU and below the 16% EU average.
Additionally, 69% believe intimate partner violence against women is common in Ireland, and 18% find it acceptable to ogle, catcall, or whistle at women.
However, 77% disagree with a man controlling his partner's finances, the highest rate in the EU.
The survey aimed to understand attitudes toward violence against women and gender-based stereotypes.
