According to a recent survey, almost half of women and nearly a quarter of men have been victims of cybersexual harassment.<\/p>\n
Overall harassment figures<\/a> were at 81 percent for women and 43 percent for men.<\/p>\n These numbers are much higher than the figures from previous surveys.<\/p>\n Anita Raj, director of the Center on Gender Equity and Health at the University of California, San Diego, says that\u2019s because this survey had a much larger sample size and defined \u201csexual harassment\u201d in broad, real-world terms.<\/p>\n Additionally, respondents reported a wide range of \u6027\u9a9a\u6270<\/a> responses, from anxiety and depression to changes in their living arrangements or everyday schedule.<\/p>\n Only 10 percent of women, and 5 percent of men, said they reported the \u6027\u9a9a\u6270<\/a><\/u> to a government authority.<\/p>\n Most cybersexual harassment is anonymous trolling.<\/p>\n Since abusers hide behind online usernames, they feel they can get away with using abusive language or inappropriate online behavior.<\/p>\n In a few cases, such behavior goes the extra mile.<\/p>\n Abusers sometimes hack into the victim\u2019s computer, installing malware or remotely taking control of webcams and other recording devices.<\/p>\n Workplace cybersexual harassment is usually unwanted sexual attention in the form of unsolicited comments and email.<\/p>\n This chatter usually involves the victim\u2019s sex organs, alleged sexual activities, or the use of sexually-charged memes and images.<\/p>\n If left unchecked, unwanted sexual attention usually evolves into sexual coercion.<\/p>\n Online sexual assault has basically the same impact<\/a><\/u> on victims as offline sexual assault.<\/p>\n Specific effects include career advancement, economic stability, physical safety, mental health, and participation in public life<\/p>\n In live workplaces, hostile environment complaints are among the most common sexual harassment complaints.<\/p>\n Not every course joke or inappropriate wallpaper display constitutes a hostile environment.<\/p>\n But if the atmosphere is so toxic that victims cannot perform their job duties or they must avoid certain workplace locations, a hostile environment complaint might be in order.<\/p>\n You have the right to a harassment-free workplace in New York and elsewhere.<\/p>\n That includes the right to a sexually-neutral environment.<\/p>\n People can ask for sexual favors either live or over the internet, so this kind of workplace sexual harassment continues unabated.<\/p>\n If anything, the quid pro quo might be even more common, because there are fewer witnesses when people are working at home.<\/p>\n It is always illegal to condition any preferential treatment, such as an upgraded monitor, on any sexual favor, such as an offer to send lunch over along with the new monitor.<\/p>\nCybersexual Harassment: A Closer Look<\/h2>\n
