Q1:

At orientation camp, Peter became obnoxious and went up to another student, Paul, and planted a big wet kiss on his lips. Paul felt totally disgusted. Could this be sexual harassment?

A. Yes, likely. It looks pretty unwelcome and a kiss can be regarded as sexual in nature.
B. No. It was an orientation camp activity, and people were not in a class. The law does not regulate a person’s private life.
C. Yes, but only if Peter is gay. Paul’s sexuality is however not relevant because anyone would feel offended being kissed in this manner by someone s/he does not fancy.
D. No. What Peter did was just a stupid drunken prank. People need to lighten up!

Q3:

Kenny, a student of the University, browses pornographic websites publicly in the university library. Other students in the area nearby couldn’t help but notice those pornographic images. Could Kenny’s behaviour constitute sexual harassment to other stude

A. No. It would not constitute sexual harassment if Kenny sits in a setting where people walking past are unlikely to “spot” whatever that appears on his computer screen.
B. No. Kenny is the one browsing the website and it is no business of others what information it contains.
C. Yes. In this case, other students’ learning environment is clearly affected by Kenny. Thus this is a case of sexual harassment by creating a sexually hostile or intimidating environment though unintentional in nature.
