Can men be sexually harassed?

Men can definitely be sexually harrassed. I used to work in an office full of women and I was the only male. One time an email was going around the office which showed a picture of a naked male celebrity and the women in the office were laughing at his pecker. The incident made me embarrassed and uncomfortable and I'm sure I felt just like a woman would feel if the opposite thing had happened in an office full of men. Edit: Dan A, you weren't there. I was a junior member of the team. Would you expect a junior woman to feel relaxed in an office full of older men who were looking at porn and making crude comments about it? I stood up for myself and I told them in an assertive way that they "Shouldn't be looking at men's ***** in the office". I already have a pair, thanks. There is nothing manly about letting women do this kind of thing in the workplace.

I saw something on the news a couple days ago, where men are actually reporting sexual harassment more than ever... Of the ones being filed, though, some of the men were actually being harassed by other men, so they can get harassed by both genders.

Yes, men can be sexually harassed, by both men and women. I think that this mind set is encouraged by men who think that harassing others is paying them a compliment. They fail to realize that if they themselves were harassed by people that they weren't attracted to, that it wouldn't be fun at all, nor would they find it complimentary.

Sure they can. A woman can make unwanted sexual suggestions to a man, touch him when he doesn't want to be touched. Factors that contribute to this mindset? The common but false belief that men want sex all the time, with any woman, anywhere, anyhow. The fact that female prostitution is big business. The fact that women are raped heterosexually and men rarely are. I don't know why courts don't rule more equally--I guess they don't take men who are sexually harrassed as seriously as they take women who are.

As a co-op student I had an older female supervisor persistently sending me sexually explicit and suggestive e-mails to the point where I was forced to take her up on it.

Of course men can be sexually harassed. If a female boss says to her male employee, "if you don't sleep with me, you're fired" that's just as much sexual harassment as if the genders were reversed.

Sexual harassment to a guy would have to be pretty severe for it to actually count if she was constantly touching his package or making people think he was sleeping with her or sending sexual messages and he is already married/got a girlfriend. Basically it would have to go further than words, for a man to be truly begin to be discomforted. EDIT: OMG soulmine grow a pair its just a damn picture its not even a picture of you where is the sexual harassment there .......

SH is a catch word, or political slogan fabricated by feminists in order to split the heterosexual relationship then splitting up family then society then economics. It NEVER existed before in History. It's a lie! Most men would stop dead in track once seeing a woman frown, the rest would be shunted by men if she complains. It's a very limited problem that becomes a large multi-billions dollars business for parasitic components. Care to look at SH definition? Everything a man does CAN be DEEMED as SH. Even his breathing close to her could be, unless he stops breathing!

i was sexually harassed in school by 5 girls.anyway feminist sell societry this idea that men have no problems and that they are disposable so that's why no one cares
