Answer: Sexual harassment

Step-by-step explanation:

What is sexual harassment?

Sexual harassment occurs when someone at work or school makes sexual advance or sexual gestures or any other unacceptable sexual cues towards another person in promise that they will do them favours .

This makes the other person (whom this is done to ) uncomfortable , humiliated and intimidated by this action towards them.

This is an unlawful act and people need not to torelate such actions but need to report them as soon as they start to occur because it may lead to something deeper than just sexually harassment, such as becoming a sexual slave for that person.

Examples of sexually harassing behaviour include:

unwelcome touching;

staring or leering;

suggestive comments or jokes;

sexually explicit pictures or posters;

unwanted invitations to go out on dates;

requests for sex;

intrusive questions about a person's private life or body;

unnecessary familiarity, such as deliberately brushing up against a person;

insults or taunts based on sex;

sexually explicit physical contact; and

sexually explicit emails or SMS text message
