Coercion
Coercion is conduct or intimidation that would compel an individual to do something against their will by (1) the use of physical force, (2) threats of severely damaging consequences or (3) pressure that would cause a reasonable person to fear severely damaging consequences. Coercion is more than an effort to persuade or attract another person to engage in sexual contact or activity. Coercive behavior differs from seductive behavior based on the degree and type of pressure someone uses to obtain consent from another.
Sexual Exploitation: occurs when a person takes non-consensual or abusive sexual advantage of another for anyone’s advantage or benefit other than the person being exploited.3 Examples of Sexual Exploitation include, but are not limited to:
● Intentional and repeated invasion of sexual privacy without consent (e.g., walking into the other person’s room or private space without consent);
● Prostituting another person;
● Non-consensual taking of photographs/images, video recording, and/or audio recording of a sexual activity;
● Non-consensual distribution of photographs/images, video recording, audio recording, or live-streaming of a sexual activity;
● Intentionally allowing third parties to observe sexual activities or view another’s intimate body parts, in a place where that person would have a reasonable expectation of privacy, without consent;
● Engaging in non-consensual voyeurism;
● Knowingly transmitting a sexually transmitted disease or sexually transmitted infection to another person without that person’s knowledge and consent;
● Intentional removal or attempted removal of clothing that exposes an individual’s bra, underwear, or intimate body part, or that is otherwise sexual in nature, without consent;
● Exposing one’s intimate body parts in non-consensual circumstances;
● Inducing another to expose his/her intimate body parts in non-consensual circumstances;
● Ejaculating on another person without consent;Distributing or displaying pornography to another in non-consensual or unwelcomed
circumstances;
● Distributing or displaying pornography to another in non-consensual or unwelcomed
circumstances;
3 Conduct cannot constitute both (1) Sexual Exploitation and (2) Title IX Sexual Harassment or Non-Title IX Sexual Harassment. Accordingly, if conduct is determined to be part of a finding of hostile environment harassment pursuant to either the Title IX Sexual Harassment or Non-Title IX Sexual Harassment definition, then that conduct will not separately be analyzed as Sexual Exploitation.
