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

Sabrina, Roxie, and Cristina see Nathan after basketball practice and start making comments about what they would like to do to him sexually. He tells them to stop and starts to walk away. As he walks by, Sabrina reaches out and pinches his buttocks.What does this scenario describe?

Answer
A
sexual assault
B
sexual harassment
C
both sexual harassment and sexual assault
D
neither sexual harassment nor sexual assault

Explanation

The sexual comments are unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature, which is sexual harassment. Sabrina also deliberately touches Nathan’s buttocks after he has told them to stop; unwanted sexual touching can be sexual assault. Because the scenario includes both behaviors, the best answer is “both sexual harassment and sexual assault.”
