Question 3 • [HSHEAC] Health Sem 1 (26-27)

Which action by Jake would cross the line from flirting with Cassie to sexually harassing her?

Answer

Jake invites Cassie to a party, and she has not decided whether she wants to go.

Jake requests to follow Cassie on social media; she accepts and follows him online too.

Jake continues to flirt with Cassie by text and in person, and she does the same with him.

Jake texts Cassie sexually suggestive images, and she considers them inappropriate.

Explanation

Sending sexually suggestive images that Cassie considers inappropriate crosses the line into sexual harassment. Inviting someone to a party, requesting to follow them online, or mutually flirting are not harassment by themselves. The key difference is that the images are unwelcome and sexual in nature.
