week 10 - Communication and Sexual Harassment
This is a very debatable topic. Well I believe that both male and female undergo sexual harassment but it is often seen that women have an edge over men in this area. About 2 years ago I saw a very interesting hindi movie called “AITRAAZ “ in which they show that the boss’s wife sexually harasses one of the employees and when he “VICTIM” tries to report to the boss about this act of wife, the boss files a case again the employee for sexually harassing his wife. And then the whole drama where no one believes the employee but later he proves that he was the victim. The moral of the story, I believe if an individual is sexually harassed, he/she should raise a voice against it not for the mere benefits or to extract money but for the right reasons, and the reasons would be that no one else should be harassed by the same individual.

Very nice example, Sexual harassment can happen both genders, but there is a normal tendency to stereotype that only women are victims of it. (Which is true in most cases).If someone faces harassment at work they should not keep quiet but at the same time should not confront them directly. They should report them through proper channels and most companies have documented procedures on how they can report sexual harassment. If someone is a victim and they keep quiet they should realize they are encouraging the person to continue to do it as he faces no consequences for his actions and they might harass more people.
