False.
Explanation:
Sexual harassment does not require that a sexual comment be made directly to a specific person. Sexual harassment has quite a broad definition that does include making direct sexual comments but is not limited to them. It means that this type of offense may entail both a verbal and physical conduct of sexual nature. Statistics show that the majority of women have experienced sexual harassment at least once in their lifetime.
Some of the examples of sexual harassment would be unwanted sexual teasing, using terms of endearment when a situation does not allow for it, or asking personal questions about someone’s body or sexual life. It can happen in a variety of settings – in the workplace, in school, or broad daylight.
Sexual harassment varies in gravity from harmless but inappropriate lip smacking or whistling to actual assault and attempts at rape. As you can imagine, many of the mentioned things can be done without communicating verbally with a victim. Interpreting an act as that of a sexual nature is possible even if its perpetrator does not announce his or her intentions.
