When a private high school in Taito-ku, Tokyo conducted a survey of 770 students about the damage caused by molestation, one in four female students was injured, and multiple answers were asked about the subsequent response. It was found that 40% of the students "did not consult with anyone".


Experts point out that "misunderstandings, such as the miniaturization of molestation, which is one of the sexual violence, and the fact that the victim has a fault, make it difficult to raise the voice of the victim."

At Iwakura High School, a private school in Taito-ku, Tokyo, about 90% of the students go to school by train, and every year students consult with us about the damage caused by molestation. I got a fact-finding survey.



In January, the survey was conducted on more than 770 first-year and second-year students, and 65 people, or 8.4%, answered that they had been victims of molestation.

By gender,


▽ female students accounted for 26.5%, which was one in four, and


▽ male students also suffered damage in 2.9%.

In addition, when asked how they responded after suffering damage with multiple answers,


"consulted with family" was 46%


▽ "consulted with a friend" was 44%


▽ "consulted with police" was 6%


,


▽ "I did not consult with anyone" accounted for 40%.



The students said,


"Don't think that the damage caused by the molester is just a small moment," or "I want


the environment to be easy for the molester to report


. "

Vice-principal Shiga Homi of Iwakura High School said, "I felt that there were so many things that students were patient or couldn't say even if they wanted to say it. I want to go. "

Professor Kazumi Ogasawara of Keio University, who cooperated with the investigation, said, "The misunderstanding that the molester, which is one of the sexual violence, is miniaturized or that the victim has a fault, makes it difficult to raise the voice of the victim. It is a big problem to come to school in the morning while suffering from crime, and if it makes me think that it is a unavoidable story, it is also the responsibility of adults who are not actively intervening. " I am.
