Sexual Harassment Ensures Survival of Human Race (in Russia)
Posted by Teresa A. Cheek On August 13, 2008 In: Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment in the workplace is considered inappropriate and unlawful. Well, at least in this country it is. But, according to a Russian judge, it is absolutely okay, and even an act of chivalry, to sexually harass your female workers. He reasoned that without harassment, the human rac
e would come to an end.
Russia has no laws against sexual harassment, and only two Russian women have ever won a sexual harassment case. And that’s not because it doesn’t happen there. A recent survey found that “100% of female professionals said they had been subjected to sexual harassment by their bosses, 32% said they had had intercourse with them at least once and another 7% claimed to have been raped.”
How this serves to preserve the human race I'm not sure. But it does give me another reason to appreciate the American workplace.
