Inappropriate behaviour in pubs, bars and clubs

Between 23^rd June and 3^rd July 2017, YouGov conducted a quota survey of 2,013 UK adults aged 18-24 through their online panel. Quotas were set based on the known population profile of adults aged 18-24, and the final data was weighted to reflect this profile.

Key findings

• Almost three quarters (72%) of 18-24 year old men and women who drink in bars, clubs or pubs surveyed said that they had seen sexual harassment* on a night out.
• 79% of women said they expected inappropriate comments, touching and behaviour to take place when they went out – either to themselves or to their female friends. 
• Nearly two thirds (63%) of women and a quarter of men (26%) said that they had been on the receiving end of some form of sexual harassment themselves.
