Emily Attack is sent vile clip of sex act just seconds after revealing harassment

Emily Atack revealed she was sent a disgusting clip of a man performing a sexual act on himself moments after she discussed dealing with sexual harassment.

The 33-year-old has been open about dealing with horrific sexual harassment since the age of 10.

Over the years, she has received endless unsolicited images from random men and recently said she 'finds it really tough.'

On Monday afternoon, she took to her Instagram Stories to share a screenshot of the clip and image sent to her by a man.

She gave a trigger warning before sharing the screenshot of the tweet.

The star blurred out the man's genitals and his username.

Emily said: "This was moments after I posted about my interview on @HappyPlaceOfficial discussing my life with constant sexual harassment.

"A man sending me videos of himself masturbating. This will now continue to happen throughout the day. All Day. Everyday."

Sexual harassment has been such a huge problem that she worked on a documentary called Emily Atack: Sexual Harassment & Me.

The documentary will also follow Emily as she seeks to speak to men who have sent her explicit content in the past, as she investigates the psychological reasons for such behaviour.

She opened up about her experiences and admitted she feels 'damaged' by the actions of vile people.

Emily said: "My whole life, I’ve been sexually harassed. In the streets, I’ve been flashed. It’s ­happened since I was 10.

"Now I’m sexually harassed online every day. I find it ­really tough. I did the ­documentary to talk about the implications.

"There’s no accountability. It’s not ­illegal to send this stuff to people.”

Emily, who has spoken about how she had to call the police after getting rape threats, added that she gets the rap for the abuse she gets.

She explained on Radio 4 recently: “I’m very damaged by the things that have happened to me."

"I’m constantly being blamed for it all. I’m a very sexually liberated woman, I talk about my life in that way. I’m constantly told I’m to blame. I’m trying to show in this documentary it’s not our fault."

Last year, she told the Mirror that being bombarded with sexually explicit images from men puts her off her cornflakes.

She revealed the unwanted trolling starts as soon as she wakes up and she receives pictures of "about 10 penises I have not asked to see" before breakfast.
