Abstract
Sexual harassment is a pervasive problem that affects individuals in a variety of social contexts, especially in the workplace and public spaces. Researcher has examined the complex phenomenon of women's non-resistance to sexual harassment and explore in depth the psychological, sociocultural and reproductive factors that lead women to not actively oppose or confront sexual harassment. Drawing on both evolutionary and survival perspectives, the paper explores the complex interplay between reproductive strategies, survival motivations, and social norms. Through the survey-based approach, we qualify the relationship between the women's varying responses to sexual harassment and harasser's social-economic status and physical appearance, taking into account scenarios in the workplace, campus, and public spaces. The results showed that women's resistance to sexual harassment changed with the various degrees of social status and appearance of the harasser. The implications of this research extend to understanding gender dynamics, workplace policies, and the social impact of sexual harassment. The study also acknowledges the limitations of sample representation and cultural context, providing avenues for future research on this important and sensitive topic. By revealing the multifaceted nature of non-resistance, it helps to understand womens experiences and decisions more fully in the face of sexual harassment.
