Why do so many people not believe women?

Fifth of Irish people think women make up or exaggerate claims of abuse or rape. That is according to a study published by the European Commission on attitudes towards violence against women. It also found that one in seven Irish people believe women are partially responsible for sexual violence if influenced by drugs or alcohol. Why do so many people hold these beliefs? Andrea is joined by Dr Michelle Walsh, CEO of MOVE Ireland, Vera O'Leary, Manager of the Kerry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre and more to discuss.
