Sexual Harassment Stories and Experiences

Lynndy    
     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.

     My story happened in 2004, when I first met with my professor.  At that time, I was thinking about applying for a master’s program in that school, and he is the chair.  He is nationally famous in the field, kind and  funny, widely loved by his students.  I liked him at first because he had been so patient, […]

     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 […]

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 […]

     My daughter is being harassed at school by two classmates (she’s a sophomore in high school). 
     She has been groped on the behind, and one boy shoved her into the lap of another.  When this happened the other boy started “grinding” on her and moaning. 
     We have reported this to the school administrator, […]

Pam, Pennsylvania
     I was already finished with my first year of college and was taking a summer course. From the first day, I had an odd feeling about my professor, and even thought about dropping the class. Well, he said attend every class and he would pass us all, so I ended up going to every class and […]

Brianna, Florida   
     Okay, it all started this year in 9th grade when I got more developed.  (I’ve got a body that I do show off, but not in a “slutty” way.)  In my classes, this kid I knew from last year would sit next to me. 
     Anyway, it all started with him touching my butt.  At first it […]

S, Wisconsin  
     I’m a sophmore and only 15 years young.  I guess you could say I’m not the most known girl around.  I’m a bit shy and quiet, but I do have good friends and a good life.
     But anyways, this boy at school has been looking at me, and when I look back he gives me […]

C, Georgia  
     My daughter, who is now 18 yrs old, was a victim of sexual harassment when she was just 12 years old and in the 7th grade. 
     She wore sweat pants to gym class, and two boys thought it would be funny to pull them down.  They exposed her to all the students in […]

Sara  
     In high school, a pastor’s son became obsessed with having me all to himself and made sexual advances at me, which I rejected.
     He became angry and vowed “if I can’t have her, nobody will.”  His sister even helped trash my reputation by telling him and the entire school that I was a “sex […]
