Sexual Harassment has been a worry for mostly women. Sexual harassment could be in
any form; Verbal, inappropriate Physical touches, ill-suited jokes such as sexual act, and sexually
inappropriate remarks, unwanted advances, verbal violence based on a person's gender, and
homophobic slurs are all examples of verbal abuse. What one person may deem to be sexual
harassment may not be the same for another. Accurate definitions that are applicable to all
cultures are more challenging to come up with because there is no single, universal sociocultural
interpretation of the phenomenon. In the setting of an uneven power relationship, it is an
undesired imposition of sexual expectations. Sexual harassment as "one component of social
sexual conduct characterized by repetition, unwelcomeness, and inherently coercive acts" in
accordance with this. (Gabriel & Panahon, 2017)
Conversely, males had a less clear structure and a fit worse, although the presence of a
general sexual harassment component was validated. Sexual harassment is an organizational
issue since its expressions and perceptions are socially and culturally based. Offensive behaviors
become accepted in the school environment, making them tough to comprehend and resolve in a
circumstance where schools give little support. Males and females require different measures.
The power of sexuality remains uneven in the public sphere; being sexual has distinct
repercussions for men and women. It is essential to remember informal structures in school,
including peer groups, and how they influence views and behaviors and support certain forms of
gender (re)production. Witkowska concludes that more efforts are required to assess and
effectively prevent sexual harassment in schools. Schools must use more sophisticated
assessments and implement education and preventative initiatives that involve an awareness of
the phenomenon's complicated nature and perceptions.
