Online violence can include trolling, threats, abuse, unwanted sexual remarks and non-consensual sharing of intimate photos and messages.
The online YouGov survey of 7,500 people aged 16 and over – 4,000 women and girls and 3,500 men and boys – in February is the largest to have taken place in the UK on the issue, the researchers said.
The findings for England showed that the figure for women and girls experiencing online violence was higher for those aged 16-24 and for LGB+ women and girls . There was a similar finding when it came to believing the Government is doing enough to address the issue – with 19% of men and boys strongly agreeing compared with 11% of women and girls.
