5:47Now PlayingIain Dale addressed the topic of male sexual assault and rape, and nailed down the importance of talking about the issue.
Over the weekend, Iain Dale featured in an article where he opened up about his own experience of an attempted rape which happened thirty years ago. After receiving hundreds of messages of support from people and people sharing their experiences with him, he decided to address the issue on-air.
"It's one of the last great taboo subjects," Iain began. He pointed out that this is a subject that is rarely spoken about in the media and this must change.
Iain addressed people who have said that he "asked for it" when he experienced his attempted rape. Iain said that these people "don't understand the concept of consent."
"At any point in any sexual encounter, whether you're a man or a woman, you have the right to say no, and as soon as you say no, things should stop there."
