Why Don't Victims of Sexual Harassment Come Forward Sooner? | Psychology Today
Quote:
It is amazing how many people shift the blame onto alleged victims, asking why they waited until now.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission reports receiving 12,000 allegations of sex-based harassment each year, with women accounting for about 83 percent of the complainants. That figure is believed to be just the tip of the iceberg.
In a study issued last year, the co-chairwomen of a commission task force said that roughly three to four people experiencing such harassment never tell anyone in authority about it.
