If a woman is being sexually harassed do you think that she should stand up for herself?
SubarugirlYoda
sex·u·al ha·rass·ment
noun behavior characterized by the making of unwelcome and inappropriate sexual remarks or physical advances in a workplace or other professional or social situation.
Some people are unable to stand up for themselves especially if there’s a power dynamic involved in the harassment. But most people are able to stand up for themselves so even if you think you can’t stand up for yourself, you should do it anyway.

That's a slippery slope... a sexual remark from one guy might be appreciated, but if it comes from his ugly cousin it is not appreciated... so the same remark... one guys cute, the other is ugly... who is wrong here? why don't guys ever ask girls out? now you know

Well sexual harassment is categorized but unwanted inappropriate sexual comments or actions that is usually ongoing. If she says stop and he does that’s a problem, but honestly. It usually pretty easy to tell when that kind of attention isn’t welcomed..

Not by this definition.
By "repeated unwanted sexual advances after being informed to stop" as well as sexual assault, certainly yes, regardless of the environment.
And no, I don't believe people should hit on people working.

That’s the literal definition of the word

That's one definition of the word which doesn't match the definition of harassment. Harassment by nature is "chronic", repeating. Also it includes sexual assault in the definition , which basically cheapens sexual assault. "Harassment is unwelcome conduct that is based on race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation, gender identity, or pregnancy), national origin, older age (beginning at age 40), disability, or genetic information (including family medical history). Harassment becomes unlawful where 1) enduring the offensive conduct becomes a condition of continued employment, or 2) the conduct is severe or pervasive enough to create a work environment that a reasonable person would consider intimidating, hostile, or abusive." "Definition of harass transitive verb 1a: EXHAUST, FATIGUE I have been harassed with the toil of verse — William Wordsworth b (1): to annoy persistently was harassing his younger brother (2): to create an unpleasant or hostile situation for especially by uninvited and unwelcome verbal or physical conduct was being harassed by her classmates claims that the police were unfairly harassing him 2: to worry and impede by repeated raids harassed the enemy"
