Answer to Question 1

Subjects of harassment, female or male, find themselves in especially difficult situations when their superiors, with their power to reward and punish them, are the ones doing the harassing. People sometimes fear that refusing to go along with sexual advances will result in termination, poor performance appraisals, and decreased promotion opportunities and salary. Therefore, power can be a factor in sexual harassment when those in higher positions abuse their power to harass people in lower ranking positions. Sometimes, however, the initiators are people in lower-ranking positions who offer sexual favors to obtain advantages at work from a powerful person.
