Well we all know that women have most, if not all power, when it comes to women-to-men relationships of any kind. These laws I agree that are necessary in many cases... but u know sexual harrassment happens to men as welll....though they would hardly ever report it or even consider it such....but it happens trust me....there is a difference in perception i suppose. I guess these laws were designed to have a society that's more equal and what not...so that the woman can be as equal and free in the workplace/public sphere as men are...however isn't it funny that there is no possible measure to be taken to curb the immense sexual power that women have over men... i mean there is no measure or legislation possible to have both sexes have an equal power over each other. Sooooooo... i think it's quite funny that everyone address this point of women being unequal and harrassed and all that but no one hardly mentions the fact that women have control over an immense drive in human life. An essential need just like food and sleep. Imagine if like somebody controlled when you'd be able to feed yourself or when you could go to sleep....welcome to a man's world

And i think it's this one of the factors that causes men to be too pushy at times...one always wants to be in control of his/her destiny...and we always try to fight the outside forces that hinder our way...i think this is a very important aspect...sexual instinct and need aside. I'm not trying to excuse any abusive male behavior by theorizing in a such way...please dont misunderstand me.... i'm just trying to make a point that this may be a reason tha causes such behaviour in men...which leads to the legislation we were speaking of above. So maybe we should work on equalizing sexual power and we would have solved the problem of sexual harrasment

One more thing i must say is that i notice that the notion of sexual harrasment is way more spread in the US than in Europe...i rarely hear about sexual harrasment cases on the media here...in fact in some Italian comedy shows the comics...presantors always make sexual inuendos, jokes and advances to the many sexy dancers and other female presence in the shows...and it is laughed off from both sides and this kind of comedy seems to be much appreciated... i know i like it quite a bit because it very genuine and natural.... i can never imagine such a show airing in the US.
