Question

hwo would u define that and what do u do about it?

what if its not at work? and its outside in a local area? of the local place u live?

Answer 1

anything said or done that makes my skin crawl. at work i would report it, in everyday life stay away from it at all cost.

Answer 2

Unwanted physical touching or verbal comments of a sexual nature.
It HAS to happen more than once. If it is a one time thing it's not harassment.
Out of all the cases of sexual harassment only 20% people who reported were telling the truth. People cry sexual harrasment to get there way and manipulate more than actually being real victims.

It's only sexual harrassment if it's at work or school. If not than it's not sexual harrassment at all. If you have a problem with the person just tell the looser to get lost.

Answer 3

In the legal sense it is the act of soliciting sexual favors by a superior, or a person enjoying moral ascendancy over another, and/or creating a hostile environment towards the subordinate who wouldn't give in to such demand for sexual favor.

The definition is very restrictive and should apply exclusively in three cases: 1. between a superior and a subordinate in a working environment. 2. between teacher and student in an academic environment and 3. between trainor and trainee in a training environment. Any situation not falling under the above scenarios will not, strictly speaking, qualify for sexual harrassment.

Also, the sexual favor should be made a condition for the giving of a promotion, or actual hiring of the applicant in cases falling under the working environment, or the giving of a passing grade or scholarship in cases falling under the academic environment, or the giving of a favorable recommendation or grade in cases under the training environment.

Mere obscene language or outright touching or lascivious acts do not qualify as sexual harrassment if the situations mentioned above are missing. They could be something else.

Answer 4

There needs to be an understanding or rather an agreement with universities and other institutions that harassment in itself is not to be allowed.

What currently is policy is to have harassment definitions sequestered into narrow categories like sexual and violation of group rights.

This policy is not by mistake, it is intentional so that these institutions can allow harassment to individuals with impunity.

Undocumeted methods of harassment include distraction techniques, where the employee , neighbor, or student is subjected to repeated noises or other intentional distractions, with the purpose of making them emotional, so mental health laws can be applied to the victim.

This is a fundamental tool institutions use against individuals.

Answer 5

Depends on the situation, If its casual conversation or jokes, its nothing to me because i am a marketing person. I will never consider mutual firm professional handshake a harrassment because that is accepted by professional society in business worldwide.
If it is non-mutual forceful touching/rape without permission, then in can be labelled as sexual harrassment because mutual agreement and consent is love. Unmutual forceful acts of physical love is sexual harrassment to me. Go for mutual decent love and that will be more satisfying

Answer 6

If it is a work thing that's going on, talk to HR. Sexual harassment is prety objective, but if you are uncomfortale in your job due to some banter or touching or joking of a sexual nature, report it.

Answer 7

Unwanted physical touching or verbal comments of a sexual nature. At work I would report it to human resources. If I was a minor, I would speak to a trustworthy adult.

Answer 8

Somebody I'm not interested in making advances toward me at work. I would tell them that I am not interested and that it's not appropriate at work and that if it continues, I will report it.

But if it's someone I am interested in, having been through some uncomfortable situations in the past, I would tell them thank you, but it's not appropriate at work.

Answer 9

When a woman even looks at me. I know what's going through their minds. Then they have the gall to come up to me and speak to me, acting all innocent by asking what time it is. I know what they are implying.

I tell them I'm not interested and to put their eyes back in their sockets.
