Jim, Let me help you out on your two examples of terminations for alleged sexual harassment, since I work in the field of Employment Practice Liability. Sexual harassment occurs if there is a demand for quid pro quo for sex, "Sleep with me for a promotion", or "Sleep with me or be fired", or secondly if the actions create a hostile work environment. The two cases you cite we obviously overreaction by the employer. These type of cases are often drummed up by those who want either to show how dumb the law is (for which the cases you cite are bad examples) or to show why someone should be fired, or in the present case, resign. Hope that clears it up for you. The two people who were fired were mistreated by their employers, not the sexual harassment statutes.
