Determining whether the conduct is unwelcome looks at whether the conduct was consensual. This will include examining whether the harassed party made clear the conduct was not welcome. However, to be clear, the harassed party does not have to say “no” for the harassment to be unwelcome. When examining whether the conduct is unwelcome, courts recognize victims are sometimes coerced into going along with the harassment, especially by a supervisor, because they are afraid of being punished at work if they complain.
