Formulation of the problem

The problem of sexual harassment disturbs our society and isn't likely to be solved soon, despite huge efforts of various social institutions, aid organizations, politicians and lawyers. It seems to an inevitable attendant circumstance or our modern advanced society. Why is it so topical today? Was it urgent in previous centuries? Is it possible to cope with it? What should a person do to avoid it?

In this site we will try to answer all these questions and study this phenomenon from every quarter. We will consider different types of sexual harassment and tips how to conduct in such situations; we will talk how to avoid them. We will also examine legal aspects of harassment at work and outside work, etc.

There are two main reasons why the topicality of the problem of sexual harassment raises. The first lies in the fact that nowadays women work in tight cooperation with men. The boundaries between female and male gender roles are blurred if they exist at all. Women and men interact more intensively now and communicate more often in comparison with previous times. This tight interconnection of opposite sexes often leads to attempts from one side to transform these relationships from business to private ones. This is an everlasting side effect of productive relations.

The second reason is the emancipation of women. Women now feel more confident and protected. They will no longer bear humiliation and harassment. They have won their right to be equal to men and are not afraid of men's tyranny. If they are exposed to harassment they react immediately in the majority of cases and take the matter to the court. The peculiar feature of this phenomenon is that it simply reveals what always existed but was hidden for many years and centuries of men's tyranny. The emancipation of women doesn't favour the increase of sexual harassment but unveils the brutal truth of our reality and throws a shadow on the male nature in general.

But, of course not all men are so terrible and insidious. Some of them often become victims of blackmail from crafty women who use legal lapses as a weapon against thoughtless and light-minded men. We will also consider these cases and decide how to conduct in such situations and not to rise to the bait.

You can never be sure that this cup will pass from you, no matter whether you are a man or a woman. It is always better to be informed about it in order to be ready to give a fitting rebuff.
