Prevention of sexual harassment: Stay in groups. Don't be alone with a stranger. Keep your wits about you. Don't get drunk. Stay away from agressive people. Causes: Agressive perosonalities. Low self-esteem. Alcohol and drug use.
Explanation:
Staying in groups or trying to stay public will eliminate possible sexual harrassment. Beign alone, you may not be able to get the help you need. If you're put into a sexual harrassment scenario make excuses such as "your breath stinks please go brush your teeth" and then use that time to quickly call for help or run away if possible. If one is at a party, keep a glass or cup in your hand at all times so as to have a visible excuse for why you're declining a drink. Drinks at parties are notorius for having drugs added in them. Alcohol and drugs without doubt affect the agresser and the victim; they inhibit your ability to make decisions. Your decisions become less rational. Agressive perosonlities are to be avoided. Agressive people have no respect for rules, thus they will not listen to you. People who have low self-esteem are easily picked up on by perpetrators and so they are more likely to taken advantage of. Women especially on college campuses have a greater risk.
