This book examines whether sexual harassment allegations against women in colleges and universities are different from harassment allegations against men and whether they are judged differently, more harshly and restrictively. Do women accused of sexual harassment receive less social support and more condemnation than men accused of sexual harassment? Do women receive the same due process, the same penalties, the same chances for redemption? Through thematic and narrative analysis of publicly available sexual harassment records and archival sources, as well as college and university newspapers, social media posts, blogs, and videos, chapters demonstrate how sexual harassment allegations, when directed against women, represent another form of gender discrimination and a different way of impugning (sexually harassing) women. This book is relevant to scholars and students in gender and sexuality studies, feminist theory, criminal justice, and legal studies.
