[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it is harrassment.  Since it seems to be accepted by the establishment, you have poor options.

While you have legal recourses, none of them leave you well off.  Any action like an EEOC violation complaint will make you the bad guy and persona non grata and while they may not take direct action, you will find that your options for advancement or even staying comfortably in your job will become strained and limited.  Not fair, but likely.

What I find much more effective is to essentially tell him very vaguely but clearly how much you consider him undesirable.  Talk about how much he reminds you of your grandfather who chases anything in a skirt even though no one takes him seriously.  Tell him that you're surprised that at his age he can still show interest in women; that you didn't think he could have it in him.  Tell him that you don't even know what the AARP crowd finds interesting and that you aren't interested in bingo at the senior center.   Find anything discouraging about aging and use that in response to his overtures.

Check out this clip from Supernatural.  Fast forward to 2:45.  It's hysterical:
