In fact, sexual harassment is a form of sexual discrimination. It usually occurs in the workplace and is mainly caused by men harassing women. When encountering this problem, you must boldly say no, otherwise they will be condoned to commit crimes.

What are the forms of sexual harassment?

There are two forms of sexual harassment, one is actions, and the other is information or language. Relatively obscure ways are verbal or social software chats, such as telling one's sexual experiences, dirty jokes, or telling pornographic content. Sometimes sexual language is used to tease and convey sexual meaning. The behavioral manifestations are more obvious, such as deliberately kissing or touching the other person's face, or deliberately bumping into sexually sensitive areas such as the woman's buttocks, legs or perineum, in order to satisfy personal desires and tentatively seduce the other person. In serious cases, people may also use insulting language or have strong sexual temptations, and may even infringe on others through lewd and molesting behaviors. The most hateful ones are hooligan behaviors such as rape or seduction.

How to prevent sexual harassment?

1. At work

You must choose normal attire for work and cannot wear revealing clothes. Even in summer, you cannot wear miniskirts, shorts or sleeveless shirts. Do not have ambiguous contact with male colleagues. If you encounter a lewd leader, you must change units immediately. If a colleague at your workplace tells you dirty jokes on purpose, don't pay attention to them. Do not work overtime alone at night. If you really need to work overtime, you need to bring a friend or boyfriend to accompany you. When entering the male leader's office alone, leave the door open and behave in a generous and natural manner. When being hugged suddenly, the body should remain stiff and struggle vigorously. You can kick the surrounding objects with your hands and feet, and use loud words to warn and threaten. Don't relax during the whole process, otherwise it will make the other party even worse.

2. In life

You cannot go to ambiguous places with men alone, such as movie theaters or bar boxes. When having dinner or other activities with men, you must sit across from each other and cannot sit in pairs. If the other person's words or actions are disrespectful, you can pretend to be on the phone, or you can go to the bathroom and call for help. Women should always remember that they cannot trust anyone easily and cannot be blinded by other people's appearance. Be wary of food, drinks or cigarettes given by strangers or unfamiliar people. These items may be laced with drugs, and the consequences if drugged are disastrous. When you are sexually harassed on the subway or bus, you need to yell loudly, or you can kick or hit the other person's vitals.

Warm reminder

Women should not wear topless or backless clothes or miniskirts when going to densely populated or remote environments. When going to unfamiliar environments, they should be aware of malicious followers and seek help from the police if necessary. People who engage in sexual harassment should be avoided and reported to the police promptly without any hesitation. When encountering sexual harassment, you need to shout for help.
