Description

"What were you wearing?"


"Where you drunk?"


"Why didn't you fight back?"


Why are survivors of sexual violence often held responsible, whether partially or fully for what happened to them?




In this episode, I will be diving into the psychological phenomena and biases which push us to engage in victim blaming.




As always, you will be asked to take some actions at the end of the episode. Be ready! :)




Enjoy the episode!
