Irish survey: 1 in 5 adults believe many false rape allegations

A survey in Ireland finds that one in five adults believe there are 'a lot' of false rape allegations, with 'alarming' views among young men on sexual violence. The finding highlights a gap between public perception and official statistics, which typically show low rates of false reporting. This matters for public discourse and policy on sexual violence, though it is a domestic social issue with limited direct market impact.
