Sexual harassment is "a problem with a long history but a short history". With the awakening and increasing awareness of women's rights and the struggle of feminists, it gradually emerged from the moral category into a Legal concept. At present, there is no uniform definition of sexual harassment in the world.The term sexual harassment here refers to sexually-meaningful, unwelcome actions, gestures, language, and graphic displays that lead to serious consequences in addition to sexual violence such as rape . The essence of sexual harassment is a violation of the sexual autonomy of the victim. With the improvement of the education level of our citizens and the increasing awareness of law, more and more people choose to take up legal weapons to safeguard their rights to this problem of "shyness". In July 2001, Ms. Tong from Xi'an filed a lawsuit with the Xi'an Lianhu District Court, accusing her superiors of sexually harassing her. It is worth mentioning that this is the first sexual harassment case in China. Due to lack of evidence, the court finally ruled that Ms. Tong lost the case. Since then, cases of sexual harassment have continued to emerge, but most of them ended with the plaintiff's defeat. Difficulty in filing a case, difficulty in obtaining evidence, and difficulty in compensating are the three major characteristics of sexual harassment cases. The reason why these three characteristics appear is related to the characteristics of sexual harassment itself. Of course, it is also related to the lagging of China's legislation in this regard. The legal term "sexual harassment" was first mentioned in the revised "Women's Rights Protection Law" in 2005, and it is an understatement of how to combat sexual harassment. In 2012, the "Special Provisions on Labor Protection for Female Employees" finally saw that "employees should prevent and Stop Sexual Harassment of Female Workers ". But sexual harassment because it also does not address sexual harassment is just "watching the moon in the water." However, it is undeniable that China's anti-sexual harassment law is gradually developing. This article is divided into five parts. The first part is the analysis of the etymology of sexual harassment and the expansion of the concept of sexual harassment. It is concluded that sexual harassment is the essence of tort. The second part is the analysis of the elements of sexual harassment. The third part is an analysis of China's existing anti-sexual harassment laws and points out its shortcomings. The fourth part is an introduction to anti-sexual harassment legislation in some countries and regions outside the region and summarizes several experiences. In the fifth part, the author proposes Suggestions to improve China's anti-sexual harassment legislation. ^[3]

The manifestations of sexual harassment are as follows:

1. Oral methods: such as teasing each other in the following fluent languages, telling them about their personal sexual experiences, pornographic jokes or pornographic content;

Game-type sexual harassment: Most are men / women with sexual experience, understand the weaknesses of women, treat women / men as playthings, and treat women / men with rudeness and disrespect for intentional game mentality. This type of male / female is usually a "prey master" or a playboy / lady. The purpose of the harassment is half to hunt for wonders, and also to prove his "potential" and "genius" of his male / female.

Power-based sexual harassment: Occurs mostly from bosses to employees or supervisors to subordinates. Most of the harassers are better educated. Although they are more out of game mentality when they are harassed, they are advanced and polite than the average player. Most of these harassers regard women / men as "consumer goods", and because of obvious interests, he even thinks that women / men like the harassment and regard it as their "patent".

Aggressive sexual harassment: This type of male / woman had a history of unpleasant relationships with women in their early years. They had a greater sense of hatred and hatred towards women / men and regarded women / men as lower animals or enemies. His / her harassment is intentionally harmful or offensive. The harasser sometimes does not want to possess the woman / man, but merely satisfies and balances his contempt and hatred for the woman / man.

Pathological sexual harassment: This is sexual harassment with obvious pathological manifestations, such as so-called voyeurism and vulgarism. This type of male / female harassment is mostly true sexual dysfunction. The harassment itself can bring him strong sexual impulses and sexual fantasies, but it cannot "cure" him, but will deepen his illness. ^[4]

Only women are sexually harassed

According to general figures, most victims are women, but in fact men also suffer sexual harassment, but the number is generally low, which may be based on the following reasons: Men's identification of sexual harassment is narrower than that of women. That is to say, most men have a greater tolerance when it comes to defining whether they have been sexually harassed, or they are largely unconcerned. For example: if someone is patted on the back, women are more sensitive to this behavior than men; if they are sexually harassed by women, most men are unwilling to tell the outside world. They worry that nobody may believe it. The self-esteem of men has made them reluctant to tell others. Their sexual harassment by women may be interpreted as cowardly, and it also shows their fragile side.

Only young, good-looking people are sexually harassed

Whoever, regardless of his gender, age, appearance, characteristics, or background, is likely to be sexually harassed. And women's sexy clothes should not be used as an excuse for sexual harassment.

Linguistic sexual harassment is more common than physical sexual harassment

In fact, verbal sexual harassment is more common, such as erotic jokes. Many people think that some sexually conscious speech or joke is a kind of praise to the other party, but the question is whether the other party's feeling is praise or insult. ^[5]

Analysis of psychological harassment

The emergence of sexual harassment psychology has a lot to do with the abnormal psychological desire of people. Sexual desire, or sexual desire, is one of the most important psychological factors in human sexual awareness activities. It constitutes the driving force of human sexual behavior. Sexual desire does not necessarily lead to sexual harassment or sexual crime. Only when sexual desire is satisfied through normal channels will it not lead to a violation of social moral norms and social norms and lead to an evil path. Human sexual needs are driven by sexual consciousness, and sexual consciousness becoming the intermediary of sexual behavior is the motive of sexual activity. Sexual motivation motivates the parties to take action and enables people to choose sexual orientation and sexual objects in order to obtain the satisfaction of sexual desire. The stronger and more urgent the sexual needs, the more stable and powerful the sexual motivation caused by it. But human sexual consciousness determines the direction of human sexual impulses. A person with unhealthy sexual consciousness will inevitably decide the direction of their sexual impulses to develop on the evil path, and cannot restrain their sexual impulses with their own sexual ideas and morals. If people do not have this self-restraint, and there is no normal way to satisfy sexual impulses, they will be converted into sexual harassment, sexual transgression, or sexual crimes by other factors.

In addition, people's sexual depression can also make people feel sexual harassment. People who have not been able to release a reasonable and normal vent for a long time will vent their accumulate in a distorted form. ^[4]
