Perpetrators are often much older and experienced than their victims, and in most situations, are even in a position of power over them, making it near-impossible for their victims to complain. Others justify the act as a culture of acceptance, one major flaw why sexual harassment thrives.
It is acknowledged that it takes learned and courageous victims to nail their harassers and report them to authorities. Just like what happened to a Media Personality MP – the victims’ supposed mentor who in the end, turned out to be their tormentor.
The popular and sometimes controversial MP is quite fun to be with at work. MP cracks jokes to anyone he fancies, even towards their company’s girl OJT’s (students who do on-the-job training in various companies).
MP took a special liking to a group of OJT’s and became chummy with them. The girls took it kindly and without malice as they believed it was just in MP’s friendly nature. In fact, insiders quipped that the OJT’s even felt privileged to be under him.
One day, MP, on the pretext of finishing a project, urged three (3) of the OJT’s to have the said project finalized in a hotel. Although confused and a bit hesitant, the girls reportedly gave MP the benefit of the doubt and proceeded as told.
At the hotel, they were shocked when MP reportedly told them to undress. At that point, they were so scared of him and felt utterly helpless. To make it short, the evil in MP succeeded.
But he never knew what was coming – his victims would retaliate.
The OJT’s wasted no time and two (2) of them reported the rapist MP to their parents. When confronted, MP allegedly wanted settlement of Php 100,000 to each of the girls. But the aggrieved parties stood their ground and would not settle.
Network bosses made a decision while investigation is being done. MP went on leave. News blackout!
