The difference between sexual harrassment in actuality and anything else is the physical aspect of the harrasment being done. I don't need to go into details but when a person is harrassed over the internet in emails or MUD/MOOs there is no actual qhysical interaction between the victim and the harrasser. It is still very wrong for anyone to harrass anyone in any way because the mental impact is forever scarring. Especially in person or over the phone. When the victim is actualy on the phone they can hear the harrasser and what they are doing/wanting them to do. In reality though there is the mental and physical effect on the victim and is the worst way. The consequences should be worse for the real life harrassers becasue the victim usually cannont help it. Online a person can get off the computer but the harrasser should still be punished because they could be catching someone in an early stage. No matter what, harrassment is very wrong.
