Sexual harassment is a serious and important issue. But in this situation, it’s my opinion the term “sexual harassment” is being misused — it sounds like simple pearl-clutching to me. Simply not liking a professor’s pedagogical approach does not constitute harassment. I can understand why, on its face, it might sound potentially creepy for a male professor to assign sex diaries to his class. We have to distinguish from sounds potentially creepy and actually is abusive, though.
