Silent struggle: Sexual harassment against men should not be brushed off

When the Women, Family and Community Development Ministry released data showing a rise in men reporting sexual harassment, many may have paused at the statistic and moved on. I hope we don’t. Because behind that number is something that deserves far more than a moment’s attention — it deserves a fundamental shift in how we, as a society, receive men who are hurting.

Sexual harassment does not discriminate by gender. And yet, our responses often do.
