Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, you may be a victim of sexual harassment. It is irrelevant that the harasser is of the same gender as you. Harassment because on sex is always illegal. It is also irrelevant whether the harasser desires sex with you.
Not only is sexual harassment illegal. The law also prohibits:
- Racial harassment
- Religious harassment
- Age-based harassment
- Harassment based on disability
- Harassment based on ethnicity or national origin
- Retaliation
Most people are familiar with workplace sexual harassment claims. Harassment in professional, business, and educational relationships are also illegal.
