Recently, a news story about Mr. Zhao in Jiangsu Province who made an appointment for door-to-door massage service through the Dongjiao Daojia platform during a business trip unfortunately encountered sexual harassment by a female technician has attracted widespread attention.
This incident not only reminds us of the seriousness of the problem of sexual harassment, but also reminds us that sexual harassment is not only a problem for women, but also for men.
If the content of the revelations is true: take off your work clothes, lie on your body, and touch your private parts, this is not sexual seduction, this is sexual harassment! The object of sexual harassment should not only be women, but also men can be the target of sexual harassment.
In our daily cognition, it seems that sexual harassment is a problem only encountered by women, and men always seem to be the "strong" party. But the reality is that men are just as likely to be victims of sexual harassment. They may choose to suffer in silence for various reasons, such as fear of being ridiculed, fear of losing face, or feeling that no one will believe what they say.
For example, these comments on the Internet can be said to be a tacit acquiescence in the heart, and this situation will not be this situation, which belongs to the concept of sexual harassment.
So why is it so difficult for men to talk about sexual harassment? Actually, there are many reasons behind this. First of all, everyone always thinks that men should be strong, how can they be sexually harassed?
This perception is difficult for male victims to talk about. Secondly, there is not enough attention paid to the problem of male sexual harassment in society, which makes them feel that they are talking about it and no one cares.
In addition, men's perceptions and definitions of sexual harassment may also influence their judgment. In some men's minds, sexual harassment may be seen as a form of "luck" or "a man's instinct." This perception can lead them to experience sexual harassment without immediately realizing that it is a violation and harm, but instead seeing it as an acceptable behavior.
Just like the person concerned, Mr. Zhao, responded, his own conditions are not bad, and there is no need to touch this kind of thing that will violate the law, but they are also men, and some people just don't believe it.
At the same time, the lack of legal protection against male sexual harassment is also an important factor. The law does not pay enough attention to sexual harassment of men, and there is a lack of clear legal definitions and penalties. This makes it difficult for men to obtain justice and compensation through legal means, even if they are sexually harassed.
In addition, with the improvement of people's living standards and the change of consumption concepts, the door-to-door massage service of the eastern suburbs has gradually become an emerging consumption method. But, as one business blogger analyzed
"The characteristics of this model, door-to-door, female service, physical contact, absolutely can not avoid many male customers to make strange demands, when the money is given enough, there must be female employees who can't resist the temptation, so even if 99.9% of the orders are regular services, as long as 0.1% of the orders are pornographic, sooner or later they will be exposed, and even worse criminal cases are inevitable, which is not something that the platform can control, it is determined by the model and scale.
Finally, we need to understand that sexual harassment should not be tolerated regardless of gender. Male victims also need our understanding and support. If they experience sexual harassment, we should also encourage them to stand up and stand up for their rights.
