There are varying degrees of S.H, yourself included in one type when younger Houllebecq. A courageous step to admit and share with people.
However, your encounter, and every individual's encounter with S.H differs greatly.
No one case is ever the same; many cases far worse than yours described and prolonged for various reasons, one of which, a young victim may well think or hope, that the perpetrator will be seen/observed and action taken by another Manager or staff.
Some people suffer silently from S.H in their jobs/careers, out of necessity, to pay for food on the table, their rent, mortgage, and raising their children, after being qualified in a set field with little scope to move.
There are not always 'personal or life choices' in every situation.
Not all people are as confident and gregarious as you appear to be Houllebecq, particularly young people starting out in their chosen professions, coming out of high school, TAFE or University.
Several girls were victims of S.H in government departments I worked in ten years ago, by the same perpetrator. He was warned quietly by his executive staff. He continued to abuse his power via his low self esteem and mysoginistic ways [a mental disease].
In the meantime those girls were left without a referee for their first jobs, one girl needed ongoing psychological assistance the following year, the next victim a year later was hired and left the department altogether, the last stood up to him, and she was informed that it was a 'story' and asked to move elsewhere.
After the perpetrator had retired early, most of the victims spoke out and action taken.
Most perpetrators of S.H and paedophilia will be found out and action taken, it is only a matter of time.
