Rights group says that Moroccan women are also guilty of harassment

Article here. Excerpt:

'As the number of Moroccan women subjected to sexual harassment increases and women’s rights organizations call for taking measures against culprits, the Moroccan Network for the Rights of Men (Réseau Marocain pour la Défense des Droits des Hommes – RMDDH) announced that women are not the only victims of sexual harassment.

The number of men harassed by women is still lower than that of women harassed by men, but that does not mean the phenomenon does not exist, said Abdul Fattah Bahjaji, RMDDH president.

“Cases of women harassing men usually occur in the workplace where the woman is in a more senior position, or with drivers and janitors,” he told Al Arabiya. “The man is usually dismissed from his job if he does not comply.”

Commenting on the demonstration women rights organizations are planning to stage in two weeks to protest harassment, Bahjaji stressed that the harassment of women is a demeaning and violent act and that it should be curbed.

However, he objected to the generalizations with which such campaigns are characterized.

“Not every Moroccan man is a molester and generalization is very dangerous because it widens the gap between men and women at the time when all Moroccans are supposed to unite to fight more important battles.”'
