This technique might confuse the recipient, who may not know about what to complain or to whom to report. However, it is important that the victim not let this keep them from reporting any incident of harassment. In most cases, you will have to decide if you are a victim of sexual harassment. If you have any doubts, talk to someone you trust and seek their advice. It is a common misconception that people who have been sexually harassed were asking for it by dressing or acting provocatively.
Nothing justifies offensive behavior.
A history of social or intimate connections does not give someone the right to harass you. It is important to tell the harasser that the advances are neither welcomed nor appropriate. Communication is key, and according to the law, you must let the harasser know that you want the attention to end. Be straightforward and firm each and every time an incident occurs. If you find that you cannot be direct, then turn to other means, i.e. leaving a message for the harasser or informing a supervisor.
