Sexual harassment and those directly affected have the often-specious
appearance. It springs into mind what kind of person would purported
sexual harassment at workplace. No one is prepared to put up with
sexual harassment willingly and let the offender get away with it.
Media coverage helped a great deal fighting off impunity but society turns a
blind eye for those less privilege and so sexuality gets the blame
instead.
Sexual harassment bears on a set of conducts as intruding as
sexually ungainly. As sexual harassment differs entirely from
affective relation mannerisms and friendship give away signs or even if making a
pass. All to do with absence of reciprocity. In this sense, dating or a gesture
of affection may turn out to be sexual harassment if not taken mildly be
the other part.
As a matter of boundaries within seeing someone and harassing sexually
comes in subtle guises, given that machismo disguised itself in confront to
feminism. Slowly but surely, women get their merited place under the sun of all
out sexuality, being no longer names like provocative called. When
there's stubbornness on an attitude laced with intimacy unwillingly by the
other, a typical framework of sexual harassment renders finger pointing a
lot easier for the sake of awareness.
Therein lies a power-freak-like relation. Unfortunately, women, by and large,
still suffer the most from this sort of harass, as if thinking they are to blame
for arousing this sort of attitude in the harasser. Otherwise, the opposite is
also true; men may take the stick as well, however in a much smaller scale. For
sexual harassment to take place there should have strong pressure upon
the victim, for she/he needs to accomplish a sexual deed since lower
ranked hierarchically than the offender does. The one who harass sexually
features strong give away clues, as something may not be so well healthy-wise or
emotionally. There might be some sort of victimized person suffering semblances
of a trauma, lack of boundaries, absolute power, and mental health among
others.
In case of sexual harassment, the first step would be pressing charges
but victims in their vast majority don't feel up to it as ashamed or by plain
shyness. Most of all, the threat of job-loss cast a shadow of impunity as
bribery subjects those under harassment to more mischief of the sexual
kind.
So, feeding on the abuser undermines the victim as sex innuendoes can
go a long way towards hurting people's feeling whether sexually or else.
The offender gets away feeling even stronger by seeing another victim cornered
and defenseless.
Furthermore, the victim is bound to suffer from serious psychological rebound
like catholic guilt-kicks, depression, problems of sexual and intimate
nature, phobias and even suicidal tendencies, which is agro enough as it is.
Nonetheless, there are treatments likely to aid a great deal anyone dealing with
sexual harassment, and the first step is to make sure the victim doesn't
take on board guilt.
