Sexual transgressive behavior is deeply rooted, including in Dutch society: 53 percent of women have been harassed at one time or another, and 22 percent were victims of sexual violence at least once. One in four women is silent about what she has experienced. Half of both men and women who became victims of sexually unwanted behavior continued to suffer consequences.

Recent research by CBS and the Scientific Research and Documentation Center (WODC) shows, among other things, that half of Dutch women under 24 have recently experienced sexual harassment or violence.
