- Non-verbal Harassment – Inappropriate eye contact, facial expressions, stalking, or rude gestures that are sexual in nature.
- Visual Harassment – Photos, emails, or any media that can suggest sexual acts or favors.
- Physical Sexual Harassment – Often the most threatening form of sexual harassment, this can include sexual assault, unwanted touching or groping, hugs, taps, and/or tugging of a person's clothes.
