Sexual harassment has been illegal for some thirty years now. Every employer of any size has rules prohibiting it and procedures for reporting it. When you start a new job you might even have to watch a video about it.

Everybody knows what it is - and yet it keeps happening.

It's simple: Don't talk dirty at work. Don't stare at women co-workers' or employees' chests, comment on their looks, touch them in non-touchable places (you know what they are), try to get them to come to your home, or ask them about their sex lives. Why is it so damned hard to just behave like a civilized, respectful human being?
