[quote=Anonymous]Advising you in this situation is very hard because what is best for your employer/workplace (nailing this bastard to the wall) might harm this young woman's career or embroil her in serious difficulties.

When I was in my early 20s and just a couple of years out of law school, I had a partner literally grab my breast.  I didn't tell on him or even tell him off.  I just escaped and kept my mouth shut because I had six-figure debt and no one to help me if I lost my job.  If someone had told for me, I would have been very upset because I needed that job.  I kept my mouth shut, kept the job, paid off my debt, and got the hell out of dodge.  Some women who hear my story feel that I was cowardly, but taking one for the team is overrated.  Unless you can guarantee she will not be retaliated against, stigmatized, or exposed in ways that will make her uncomfortable on the job, I am not sure that it is right (from the perspective of what is right for this particular woman) for you to tell.[/quote]
