What kind of harassment could a men face?

Hi guys,

#metoo movement is one of the viral topic currently which is against the sexual harassment of women.Many celebrities as well as public have come forward and opened up about the harassment against women and are supporting the victims.
But, I came across some posts on social media stating that men too have to face harassment in their day to day life, and nobody cares about it.Even if they try to tell about it no one takes it seriously!

Do you guys have any idea about the harassment which men could go through? If you are a male, have you ever been harassed??

I heard so many stories even men face sexual harasments. But they were feel uncomfortable to expose those I believe because it hasn't any evidence to prove that that a women did like that. Anyhow homosexually some men tried to harassed men too, it also considerable. There so many untold stories, even in Sri Lanka too.

Metoo movenent is a good thing but when it is misused , it becomes a mental harassment for men. I have seen many false accusations of sexual harassment for several other reason. This is a problem that men are facing for a long time

But how can we say that it's a false accusation?? Every one of us has two sides..Probably we might have seen only one side of them. Yes, there aren't any evidences to prove some accusations but cannot totally oppose it either.

Agree with you Helena, Because of the lack of evidence we can't say the accusation is false, Every girl would try to escape from the situation when she faced the harassment, She never thought collect evidence against her abuser.

Whatever happens, the maximum number of Men's take everything casually. But there are some harassment's that Men's face. The same kind of harassments that women's face and something really odd that Men's only face from the same and the opposite gender. The example at the Workplace, Public places, Public transports. The Simple solution is Men can handle the situation under great tolerance whereas women's face really hard situation.
