[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's pretty clear to me what's harassment and what isn't. Using your authority at work or your hiring power to try and gain sexual favors is harassment. [/quote]

So a lawyer asks a paralegal at the same firm to go out for drinks. Makes suggestive comments about going out and having fun. Paralegal declines, saying it sounds like fun but has other plans this weekend, maybe some other time. Lawyer asks again the next week, and gets similar response. Pattern repeats several times over the course of a few months. Paralegal does not work directly for lawyer, but is at same firm. Is this sexual harassment?

Repeatedly asking a coworker out, after she's made it clear that she isn't interested, is generally regarded as harassment.[/quote]

+1.
Back to the original question. Is the line between courtship and harassment that blurry? Doesn’t everyone see the difference?

To the lawyer/paralegal poster...any way we can help you? What is the blurry line for your situation?
