    The term is always defined by the receiver of the unwanted attention and like most everything else in interpersonal relationships, subject to bias.

    Is physical or verbal attention from Quasimodo an unwanted advance or inappropriate behavior and the same attention from a GQ coverboy not?

    Same for a poor guy in a shabby trailer park and driving a beat up Honda compared to a well off guy in a Porsche?

    How much of this, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder?
    Most of it. "Inappropriate" behavior depends on where the behavior happens, who is involved, their ages, their marital status, relative hotness, their intentions, what, if any, transactions were involved, etc., etc.

    In short, most of it is subjective at this point. Which distracts from the rarer but much more significant instances of real sexual attacks or coercion.

      Agree. "He called me into his office to see porn" declared years later is not at all the same thing as an actual physical attack of any kind. And then do it twice more and stay working for the guy? This is supposed to be sexual assault?

        If anyone needs me, I'll be out back, loading luggage into the handbasket.
        It's been ten years since that lonely day I left you
        In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand
        Ten lonely years but how my heart, it still remembers
        Pray for me, momma, I'm a gypsy now

          Covers up sexual assault and fires those that reported it.

          Also, she's a racist.

          Science that cannot be questioned is propaganda.
