Default How often do you hear about men dealing with sexual harassment?

I know I was harassed by a girl back in high school. And a year later, she was expelled for sexual harassment, thanks to me.How often do you hear about men dealing with sexual harassment whether they're in school, a public place, etc.?Edit* Me and my mother was close to filing a lawsuit against my old school. ------

Kudos to you. You have my respect, sir. I wish more guys did this. I've always wanted a case like this to go to court so I could hear a man say on the front steps of the courthouse that he did it for men everywhere.I think most men are not offended like women are and thus think of it as flirting and nothing else. Some are too private and don't want it to become"news"and some are just ashamed / embarrassed so it just doesn't get reported. That and the media panders to women so they couldn't care less about men. Hopefully you can be an example for others. ------

It is rare if ever. I think if a man is sexually harassed---people seem to ignore it--or don't believe it. Also, I would say most men would not admit it or tell about it if it did happen to them. Just my opinion ------

They may have a fear of reporting harassment and may not be taken as seriously as female harassment.You did the right thing in reporting your harasser and there should be more males reporting their own harassment. ------

It happens but sadly you don't hear about it often. Unfortunately there is a lot of social stigma surrounding men who get sexually harassed/raped.Many men and women are under the false assumption that men ALWAYS want sex, to be touched in a sexual way or to have a very offensive sexual comment made to/about them but that is not true.Some men feel embarrassed by it and sadly most are not taken seriously.The more men who come forward on this issue, the sooner it will be taken into consideration and the sooner more people will realize that this does happen.This is something that we really need to take care of in our society. NO ONE, man or woman, deserves to be treated in this vile manner. ------

The more often men and boys come forward, the more our society will come to understand and accept that this happens to men, too. ------

Because men actually want to live in a reverse society where women hit on THEM and buy THEM some damn drinks for once!For that, i'll endure a little harassment......okay a LOT of harrassment. ------

never but if that is happening to you, by all means, see a counselor and a sympathetic teacher and ask what to do. ------

I got suspended in HS at my job. I liked this guy too much. It's quite silly looking back but I guess I was a real bother to him (more likely his jealous gf).This is one of those things that defies conventional social opinion, but really exist. You can hear about it a lot if you search for it. ------
