He and I have also been to some cruises together. He said to me: \u201cI really think that this is a good idea in general, but to be honest I have never heard of sexual harassment on any of the cruises I participated in. Does it happen so often that this initiative is necessary?\u201d Of course, it&#8217;s a funny thing to say that we shared one experience which he didn\u2019t identify as sexual harassment.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>The situation took place as follows: You know those evenings, when a shift ends and some people gather in the Hangar to grab some drinks. We were around 15 to 20 people, so quite a large number. And one of my colleagues, a female person, stood up to grab another drink (the bottles were standing on the floor). And she bent over to take one of the bottles. In that moment, a male person stood up and hit her ass really hard. Completely surprised, she jumped forward. Everybody else was laughing and enjoyed the prank.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>And he was the hero in that moment because he made everybody laugh.&nbsp;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>But you might guess who did not feel like a hero. Who stood there frozen and felt embarrassed.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>And you might think that this is a situation that other females would have laughed about or shared a laugh about. And that is ok.&nbsp;But it is not ok if the person feels humiliated or discriminated. Moreover, this prank is a situation where one person took the chance to make himself feel great by making another person small. And this is just one of many stories I could tell.<\/em><\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>Sexual harassment happens everywhere in our society. A study by the German Federal Anti-Discrimination Agency showed that within the last three years, 13% of women and 5% of men had experienced sexual harassment at their work place. For GEOMAR, this would mean that 44 women and 20 men have experienced sexual harassment here.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>Sexual harassment is one symptom of power abuse. It can destroy careers and lives.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>The same study says the following: Every third to fourth person affected by sexual harassment felt moderately to very strongly threatened or powerless by the actions. A moderate to very strong feeling of shame, humiliation and psychological stress as well as a negative impact on self-esteem caused by the situations was reported by every second to third person affected, women even more often than men.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>And now imagine you are on a research cruise and cannot escape the situation by simply going home.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>If we talk with our friends about sexual harassment, everyone knows someone who has experienced harassment, but no one knows someone who conducts sexual harassment. And it is also quite rare that we know of people who spoke up when they observed sexual harassment.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>And to change that we started the initiative \u201cFor a good Way of Working and Living together at Sea\u201d.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>If you think that this speech was inappropriate \u2013 well I think sexual harassment and power abuse are inappropriate.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>If you would like to find out more, please visit our website or contact us.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #003366\"><em>And one last thing\u2026 if you have experienced or observed sexual harassment, please do not hesitate, to speak up, to seek help and talk about it.
