I have no intention of sexually harrassing anyone, but was intrigued by "sexual harassment, such as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, physical, or visual conduct based on sex" which is in my employers policy.


How do you know a sexual advance is unwelcome until you have already executed it?!

A degree of maturity and common sense is called for.


The rule is simple - if you even think for a moment that a person of the opposite sex may be upset or offended by any remark, gesture, or contact you might make, don;t do it. If you know somewone well, they will be aware that your attitudes and intetions are not offensive, if the person is a relative, or complete stranger, they may not.


Apply that simple rule, and you can't go wrong.

...And in this litigious age we live in, even if it seems welcome at the moment, the person to whom it's administered can cry foul later and guess who's caught in the cross hairs of the legal system? It's rather like a boil, in my opinion, there's a lot less pain if you leave it alone...
if the person is ugly then it's sexual harrasment and if the person isn't ,theres your answer
