To be hostile environment sexual harassment, not only must the conduct be unwelcome, it must also meet two other requirements:

The victim must have been personally offended by the conduct; and
The conduct must have been so severe and/or pervasive that a reasonable person in that situation would have found it offensive.

Factors Considered Relevant To Whether An Environment Is Hostile

Several factors will also be used to analyze the situation:

The frequency, severity, and duration of the unwelcome conduct;
Whether the conduct was physically threatening or humiliating, or simply offensive words;
Whether the conduct unreasonably interfered with the victim's work or academic performance;
The effect on the victim's psychological well-being; and
In employment, whether the harasser was the victim's supervisor.
