Very extensive study with numerous sources. I will highlight the most notable & important parts. Draw your own conclusions.
Fairchild (2010) conducted an online survey on perceptions of sexual harassment (possibly as far as sexual assault) incidents of (N = 1,277) relatively young (mean age 28.11) women. The women were given a series of questions from a modified version of the Sexual Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ) ("Have you ever experienced unwanted sexual attention or interaction from a stranger?"; "Have you ever experienced catcalls, whistles, or stares from a stranger?"; ‘‘Have you ever experienced direct or forceful fondling or grabbing from a stranger?’’) to measure if and/or how often they had been the recipient of such harassing behaviors.
The participants were then presented with a list of 17 contextual factors (including attractiveness, time of day, race, and location) and asked to select which of the features would make an experience of harassment by a stranger more frightening, which would make the experience more enjoyable, and which would make them more likely to react verbally. It was found that the primary factors that determined how enjoyable or traumatic women found the experience to be were:
Frequency (in percent) of contextual factors reported to increase fear, enjoyment, and verbal reactions to stranger harassment.
27.1% indicated increased enjoyment from an attractive harasser whereas only 1.9% indicated increased fear. That does not necessarily mean that the remaining ~70% of women "don't like being harassed by attractive men"—it's entirely possible that some of the remaining percentage simply have a neutral stance.
Participants responded to the contextual factors by selecting as many of the sixteen factors (or ‘‘none’’) that would likely increase their fear, enjoyment, and likelihood to verbally respond to a typical stranger harassment situation. Table 2 displays the percentages of participants who selected each of the sixteen items or ‘‘none.’’

Fairchild (2010) conducted an online survey on perceptions of sexual harassment (possibly as far as sexual assault) incidents of (N = 1,277) relatively young (mean age 28.11) women. The women were given a series of questions from a modified version of the Sexual Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ) ("Have you ever experienced unwanted sexual attention or interaction from a stranger?"; "Have you ever experienced catcalls, whistles, or stares from a stranger?"; ‘‘Have you ever experienced direct or forceful fondling or grabbing from a stranger?’’) to measure if and/or how often they had been the recipient of such harassing behaviors.

It was found that the primary factors that determined how enjoyable or traumatic women found the experience to be were:
- Physical Attractiveness: More attractive men most significantly increased women's enjoyment of the "harassment."
- Age: Similar or younger age in relation to the participant increased women's enjoyment of the "harassment."
- Race: Different race of the man made women more likely to rate it as traumatic.
Frequency (in percent) of contextual factors reported to increase fear, enjoyment, and verbal reactions to stranger harassment.
Factor | Fear | Enjoyment | Verbal Reaction |
---|---|---|---|
Attractive Harasser | 1.9 | 27.1 | 8.3 |
Unattractive Harasser | 20.3 | 0.2 | 3.4 |
Younger Harasser (20s-30s) | 10.1 | 18.2 | 14.0 |
Older Harasser (40+) | 32.6 | 1.6 | 3.7 |
Harasser Same Race | 3.1 | 4.7 | 7.6 |
Harasser Different Race | 15.1 | 1.1 | 1.6 |
- Similar behaviors from an attractive and unattractive man are viewed differently with the attractive man receiving more leeway in the potentially harassing behavior.
- It can only be assumed that the women (46% of participants) feel that stranger harassment is an unpleasant experience that cannot be improved. However, it is equally likely that these women (or some of them) find the experience highly enjoyable and such enjoyment cannot be increased.
- Physical Attractiveness: More attractive men most significantly increased women's enjoyment of the "harassment."
- Age: Similar or younger age in relation to the participant increased women's enjoyment of the "harassment."
- Race: Different race of the man made women more likely to rate it as traumatic.
Only 46% of women indicated that sexual harassment could not be made enjoyable. Therefore, it can be inferred that to the majority (54%) of women, sexual harassment could be made enjoyable, under the correct conditions.
27.1% indicated increased enjoyment from an attractive harasser whereas only 1.9% indicated increased fear. That does not necessarily mean that the remaining ~70% of women "don't like being harassed by attractive men"—it's entirely possible that some of the remaining percentage simply have a neutral stance.
Participants responded to the contextual factors by selecting as many of the sixteen factors (or ‘‘none’’) that would likely increase their fear, enjoyment, and likelihood to verbally respond to a typical stranger harassment situation. Table 2 displays the percentages of participants who selected each of the sixteen items or ‘‘none.’’
Finally, 46% of respondents selected ‘‘none’’ in regard to what would make the situation more enjoyable. Because this data was a simple checklist, it can only be assumed that [46% of] women feel that stranger harassment is an unpleasant experience that cannot be improved. However, it is equally likely that these women (or some of them) find the experience highly enjoyable and such enjoyment cannot be increased. With this data set, it is impossible to interpret the ‘‘none’’ response. (From page 201 of the study)
Experiences with stranger harassment were assessed using the modified version of the Sexual Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ; Fitzgerald et al. 1995) developed by Fairchild and Rudman (2008). Participants first responded ‘‘yes’’ or ‘‘no’’ to having ever experienced nine different behaviors from strangers that ranged in severity from unwanted sexual attention to forceful fondling (e.g., ‘‘Have you ever experienced unwanted sexual attention or interaction from a stranger?’’; Have you ever experienced catcalls, whistles, or stares from a stranger?; ‘‘Have you ever experienced direct or explicit pressure to cooperate sexually from a stranger?’’; and ‘‘Have you ever experienced direct or forceful fondling or grabbing from a stranger?’’). Participants then responded to the same behaviors in terms of frequency regarding how often they had experienced each of the behaviors (1 = once; 2 = once a month; 3 = 2–4 times per month; 4 = every few days; 5 = every day). Table 1 provides a list of the behaviors.
Golden et al. (2001) explain that the attractive perpetrator may be off the hook for his behaviors because of the attractiveness stereotype. Individuals who are attractive receive the benefit of the ‘‘halo effect’’ in which their attractiveness encourages others to ascribe positive traits and behaviors to them. An attractive individual may then be more likely to ‘‘get away with’’ ambiguous sexual harassment behaviors because of the additional good qualities he is assumed to have under the attractiveness stereotype. Because beautiful is believed to be good, the authors hypothesize that attractive male perpetrators will be viewed as less harassing in their behavior than unattractive male perpetrators. Their data support their hypothesis and they conclude that the effect of attractiveness on perceptions of sexual harassment stem directly from the stereotype of attractiveness.
Based on these analytics, blackpill & agepill truthnukes play a vital part in determining if sexual harrasment can be enjoyable to woman. Also, JFL @ the people coping in the sources I provided.An exploratory analysis was also conducted on a subsample of the women’s responses to compare them with a sample of men’s responses. The t-tests demonstrated a clear and distinct difference between men’s and women’s predicted reactions for the target character. Mirroring the research on gender differences in sexual harassment (e.g., Katz et al. 1996), these analyses showed that women viewed the situation as creating more negative emotions, as less benign, and the target as less likely to use active coping strategies. Research on sexual harassment suggests that ambiguous situations and hostile environment sexual harassment are the situations most likely to be perceived differently by men and women (Elkins and Velez-Castrillon 2008). In this ambiguous situation of stranger harassment, the gender difference is clear; men believed the target character to be more vain, less negative emotionally, more likely to react actively, and also more likely to think of the incident as harmless or a joke. Correlations between the men’s scores and their score on the Tolerance of Sexual Harassment Scale (Lott et al. 1982) suggest that men who are more tolerant of sexual harassment view the stranger harassment experience as eliciting less negative emotion, which would suggest that they believe that women enjoy these incidents. This assumption is qualified by the correlation between tolerance and self-blame, which suggests that these men believe that the woman is provoking or at least encouraging the harassing behavior. More research on men’s views of stranger harassment and their predictions of women’s responses is warranted by these results.
