S4 7. Cyber Flashing: How Men Can Help (with Sophie Gallagher)

In this episode, Cate and Diggory speak to award-winning writer, editor and campaigner Sophie Gallagher to talk about the emergence and rapid rise of Cyber Flashing - the unsolicited and non-consensual sharing of explicit images. They discuss:

• How prevalent is Cyber Flashing?
• What sort of effect does it have on victims?
• Why is the law surrounding it inadequate?
• Why do perpetrators do this?
• Why has this been a problem that women have been tasked with solving?

And they ultimately end the discussion asking how can men help? Which, Sophie goes into more detail in her book of the same name – How Can Men Help?
