Sexual harassment in the workplace has become very widespread. It has become one of the most serious problems across Canada. "Recent surveys of letters to the editor indicate that most women feel that sexual harassment is the norm and not the exception." For me personally, I cannot believe that this is accepted by women. Women need to stop being so weak. We have to stand up and take action. This is not acceptable! Most women have male bosses. If they are harassed they tend not to report it, for they are scared to lose their jobs.

Sexual harassment is any unwanted sexual advances, comments or req

There are a lot of myths about rape that people may think are true. They are listed below.

Some girls reach their teen years with a history of being sexually abused by men and it may continue throughout their life. The physical and emotional trauma is the same if abused or raped by a stranger, an acquaintance, or a man that you are romantically involved with. No matter who it is, let someone know. Either a doctor, police officer, or a family member. You should seek medical attention as soon as possible to make sure there is no physical damage. Most of all, make sure that you are not pregnant, and to see if you have any signs of STD's. It may add more emotional pain, but the sooner you get checked out, the sooner you can get treated.

It is very difficult for a woman to put her life back together, and it may be hard for family members to deal with it as well. Some members of the family will believe it is partly their fault. They may feel guilt, frustration, pain, or anxiety. If you are a friend of a victim, there are three things you should say to that person. I believe you, it wasn't your fault, and you are not alone. It is very difficult to cope with any type of sexual violence. The one thing you should never forget is that if you say "NO" to physical intimacy, you may lose your partner, but you won't lose yourself.

Other forms of sexual violence against women include incestuous relations. Incest is a topic society does not wish to discuss, even though it occurs everyday. It is difficult for many women to deal with the fact that they have been raped, sexually abused, or harassed by their own relatives and loved ones. It will haunt them for the rest of their lives.

It is uncomfortable to discuss fathers having sex with their daughters, uncles with their nieces, or grandfathers with their grandchildren. Not every case has a male aggressor and a female victim. The roles can be reversed, like mothers having sex with their sons. Sexual relations can also occur between siblings. "Incest is any sexual activity between family members or close relations such as adoption or step-relations."
