This book, HARASSMENT: VICTIMS AND THEIR VICTIMIZERS, will attempt
to expose the truth about the sources and reasons for the
preponderance of sexual harassment in the workplace and academia.
Harassment is a pervasive social problem directed mostly toward
females of all ages and races by males of all races. The underlying
causes of harassment are sexism and sexism-racism that have been
established in this patriarchal society as the norm of the behavior
of males. This "norm" is not normal; rather, it is a type of
psychopathologic behavior that is dangerous. Actually, these
occurrences may border on fascism within a democratic and liberal
society. The male entitlement theory, manhood theory and the
masculine mystique all contribute to the harassment of women
because males believe that they have a right to control females
with physical and /or psychological violence. The reasons why women
are victims will be followed by why men victimize women. Both
chapters will cover the assessments relevant to the problems both
women and men face in this Western culture due to our socialization
practices. Men are not cognizant of the scope of their behavior;
women are not often certain about how to handle diffi cult
situations with men in the workplace and academia. Some women may
be becoming too complacent and will accept abuse; then, others will
in turn become aggressors toward other women and then men in
relationships.
