WASHINGTON: You may have seen it among your own friends: a high-profile #MeToo case triggers responses that assign some or all the blame on a victim of sexual harassment, with men more likely than women to side with an accused male.
More encouragingly, the work also found “victim-blaming” among men fell when were they were asked to see a situation from a woman’s perspective – a possible path towards mobilizing both genders against sexual harassment and assault. When the female student finally brought the incident to the college’s attention, the male student admitted to most of the allegations but insisted he had been joking around, did not mean to upset her, and believed she “enjoyed the attention.”In the first study, overall levels of victim-blaming were low and men and women showed equal levels of empathy for the female victim.
In the second study, participants were asked to focus on how the incidents would affect the life of either the male or female student moving forward.
