''Over half of women have experienced sexism at matches

Kick It Out has today launched a campaign to combat sexism and misogyny in football, with new research commissioned by the charity showing that over half (52%) of women fans have experienced sexist behaviour or language on matchdays''

''The vast majority (85%) of women and non-binary fans who had witnessed or experienced sexist or misogynistic abuse also said they'd never reported it, with many explaining it was because they didn’t think it would be taken seriously or make a difference''

''The research overwhelmingly found that underrepresented groups, including ethnic minorities, LGBTQ and disabled fans, as well as younger supporters, were more likely to feel unsafe on matchdays and experience sexism in a football setting.

The campaign, supported by Sky Sports, Her Game Too and White Ribbon, will focus on challenging and reporting sexism following a marked increase in reports of sexism and misogyny to Kick It Out over the last two seasons''

Hmmm, I wonder which other organisations support ''Kick it Out''

The video speaks volumes.
