Sexual Harassment is not about Sex
Sexual harassment is about power not sex. Harassment occurs when there is a power imbalance. For example, the power differential between a faculty/staff member and a student or subordinate staff is considerable. The assessments faculty/staff make regarding their students/other staff can and do affect lives. Moreover, students of all ages are vulnerable to faculty/staff influences. It is not uncommon for students or subordinate staff to fear retaliation and therefore feel pressed to endure sexual innuendos or be seduced into sexual activity.
