Sexual Harassment Stories and Experiences

Sydni, Tennessee
     I was a new assistant district attorney.  I thought  I had been hired for my skills potential. 
     After working a while, I noticed the boss had an particular interest in me.  He held my chair at  meetings and singled me out for attention.  I was the “golden girl” who could  do no wrong. 
     My […]

Chip, Kansas
     A while ago, I was hired at a company that supplies wires for aircraft.  The supervisor who interviewed me knew that a  fellow employee had recommended me based upon his  knowledge of my work ethic.
     On my fifth day of employment, I was approached by this supervisor.  He stated that him and a fellow employee were going to […]

Kelly, Wisconsin   
     I had just started working at a bar about a month before.
     I had only worked two shifts and therefore I had only met the manager and two of the other bartenders.  There was a staff meeting one Saturday afternoon to introduce all three of the new employees.  This was the first time that […]

     When I was a sophomore in High School, two guys whom I thought were my friends began making comments about my figure and how I was just really gorgeous. 
     I was like, “Thanks for the compliments.” 
     But then the next day they both came up to me and started grabbing my breasts and other inappropriate places.

     At first, I didn’t think anything of it:  he carried my science book for me, said I was “hot” and kept making kissing faces at me and stuff.  Then it was singing love songs in front of everyone, and “She’s my girlfriend.”  Just annoying.  I thought it was just a crush.
     Then, after I told him […]

Kellie, Florida
     I am a female Emergency Department physician.  I became friends with a coworker, a female Nurse Practitioner employed by the same medical staffing service for which I work. 
     At first, it seemed we had a great deal in common: both had 3 kids, struggled with long hours, stressful work, childcare, etc. much the […]

Lisa, California
     I went to work for a Native American gaming resort.  I  was assaulted by my boss then fired when I didn’t submit to him. This is from my attorney:
My lady client in particular has an incredible story to tell….she went on a business trip with a team from *******.  The head of Human Resources […]

J, New York   
     I was fourteen and freshman in high school. A guy I liked–a junior–had a Halloween-based theme job, and he asked me to come visit him there.  So, me and all of my friends (a bunch of girls and a couple boys) went there one night. 
     He found us, and while everyone went on […]

Jim, Michigan
     Seems that sexual harassment laws are set for professional/educational types of instances.  I know that it isn’t exclusive of public situations. 
     I was at a party with many friends and acquaintances. The crowd was of a swinger/sexually-experimental mindset..which was fine by me.  Alcohol was involved.  See also: other drugs. 
     I was standing in […]

Innocence Lost, California    
     I worked at a fast food restaurant at the age of 17.  I was always the young girl who was fun and innocent.  My friends and even my manager called me “the little angel” because I was so pure… undefiled.  They would tease me, telling me that they would give me a […]
