'What is being discussed here is
the behaviour of those people who are
indulging in uninvited and unwanted sexual advances,
ranging from bottom-patting, squeezing, pinching,
inappropriate attempts at touching, to outright
propositions accompanied by the implied or
explicit threat of dismissal.'
That's what you're discussing. I'm discussing the general prevalence of sexual harassment including the whole range of situations that bring about complaints, not just the obvious cases.
If it were just the obvious cases, nobody would object to people filing law suits for groping.
I think the 'implied' threat of dismissal isn't often implied, it is read by the woman that way. ie I feel threatened because you are a superior. Then it is turned into law because any 'boss', who asks a woman out, is now taken as threatening such. This is the kind of thing I'm arguing about.
