‘Epidemic’ of violence and sexual offences against women on trains

[Arvaos]

There has been an alarming rise in sex offences and violence against women on the railways in the UK, official figures reveal.

The number of violent crimes against women and girls jumped by 5% to 12,082 in the year to March 31.

What's behind this? Is it the rise of the manosphere culture and how can train authorities tackle this behaviour?

I've had violence thrown at me throughout my life from both men and women including of the touchy and so on kind.

You could always volunteer to join the bobbies.

No one wants to join the police (low manning issues increase)

No one wants to fund the police (insufficient pay issues increase)

Everybody just wants to complain on the internet and point fingers at somebody else (fixes nothing)

Training does nothing when there is no one to train.

Realistically crime recording has alot to do with it.

Some years ago police forces simply didn't record all crime - they got away with shutting down incidents.

Infamously Greater Manchester Police failed to record 80,000 crimes in one year and was only caught out by a surprise government audit.

Might sound like a stupid question but what’s preventing these girls from reporting a sexual crime?

Nothing.

Transport Police in the UK are one of the better forces for crime reporting as they have a text service, I don't think any other police force operates one.

In the 1990s, we were delightful lot.
Just because of us having a laugh at their expense conductors were escorted by the transport police.

Some people have no sense of humour.

Just look to Japan. They had this problem.

Who's doing the thing -- the 'nazis', the 'manfluencers', or the people who shouldn't have been allowed in?

Male subcultures are dangerous.

How can they be tackled though?
