Sexual harassment is well defined as an unwelcome sexual request for sexual favors and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. In many countries, sexual harassment is considered a form of sexual abuse and employment discrimination. Sexual harassment is most prevalent is organizations both professional and academic, though it can occur almost anywhere.

Getting past the initial embarrassment of being sexually assaulted (i.e. rape) can be extremely challenging and is one of the major reasons women choose not to come forward.

The problem is that parties can be crowded and people are there to have fun, which means they could be distracted. If there are distracted, they may not even realize that there is a sexual violence event may be happening in the first place. This means they would not be able to complete the first step on the sequential model of helping because they would be too distracted and concerned with themselves to realize that an emergency is happening. Also, another possible obstacle could be the amount of people present at the event. A great number of people attends parties

I talked to him for a little while just to appease him.” Finally, the guy’s friends coaxed him away from Amy’s door. “I don’t know if that’s sexual harassment,” she said. “I wasn’t worried that he was going to assault me. The whole thing was just annoying.”

What I found interesting was that the victim and the harassment may be a woman also it doesn't have to be the opposite sex. The harasser's behavior has to be unwelcome. The harasser could be someone the victim was close to. The harasser could also be the victim’s supervisor, coworker, or maybe even a supervisor somewhere else. Also the victim does not have to be the person getting harassed but could be offended by the behavior of the person that is harassing.
