Out of Bounds: Teenage Sexual Harassment

Unwanted attention of a sexual nature is sexual harassment.  And it isn’t just a problem in the workplace — it’s firmly rooted in a society that encourages attitudes of superiority and abuses of perceived power. As this informative program shows us, men often develop their disrespectful and demeaning attitudes during their teen years. To promote healthy, loving relationships, young men and women need to learn the skills of recognition, communication, self-reflection and personal responsibility. This 1992 program effectively illustrates examples of sexual harassment among young adults and examines several effective ways to help eliminate it from society. “…entirely convincing…While the program is aimed at teenage boys, girls will benefit from tips on recognizing and handling harassment.”—Booklist.  Finalist, Birmingham International Film & Video Festival
