Personally I have experienced this, me being a guy it might shock most but honestly it can happen to anyone. So I use to work at this factory here in Michigan and I loved what I did, I was a line leader and it paid nicely. But anyways there was a girl that worked on my assembly line and at first it was just her talking to me and saying hello, normal stuff. It was when she got to know me overtime, that she apparently got more comfortable around me that she started touching me and at the time I had a girlfriend so obviously I was not going for this, so I politely asked if she would stop and she would just laugh it off and I thought maybe she would stop and for 2 days it did. But then I walked past her and she slapped my butt and would say sexual things to me and that was basically the last straw so I went to management and they basically did nothing and this continued for so long that I put in my 2 weeks and never went back. It is unfortunate that people are like that and can not respect other peoples space. I did find me a better job after that and I am loving it a lot!

What a jerk she was, and the same for management for not taking measures against her. At least you found a better job and love it.

Hi, I never have happened this situation before. But it obviously seems that no one could stop what others do to you. But we could keep ourselves away from that.

Yeah I am glad I was able to get myself out of the situation and into a more better environment to work.

True! Men can be sexually harassed as much as women but society sees it as more of a "woman" thing than men.

Yes they can. It is like they were not brought up right or something.
