Hello dear listeners and welcome to show 299 of our podcast “Absolutely Intercultural”. Today, we are going to talk aboutcultural aspects of “Sexual Harassment”, which,is a subject that touches on deeply personal beliefs, cultural values, and societal norms. It’s a topic that holds strong feelings and diverse perspectives, depending onpersonal experiences, cultural backgrounds, and even different legal frameworks around the world. When we brainstormed the subject we found that even within our team we got a glimpse of very different views from Australia, Albania, Turkey, Portugal and Germany. As always, our goal today is not to support one perspective over another, but to offer a platform for a range of voices to share their stories and perceptions.This is the Absolutely Intercultural Podcast –and we really appreciate cultural diversity and different views on the same subject and absolutely everyone is welcome to think absolutely everything about this topic!
Through these conversations, we want to show you different perspectives shaped by beliefs, valuesandexperiences. By listening to this episode, we hope to encourage a deeper understanding and promote a more thoughtful and respectful dialogue on this topic.
absolutely consentual
In our first story, we will listen to Jonas from Germany. Jonas talks about a friend who was in a relationshipin which he desired more intimacy than his girlfriend. Can sex between people in a romantic relationship be called “rape”?
absolutely unacceptable
In our second story, we will listen to Ana, who is an exchange student from Albania. Ana tells us that the topic of sexual harassment should not even be called controversial because no matter in which case the assault happens if there wasa “no”from one of the partners -then there is nothing to discuss.
absolutely accused
In our last story, we will listen to Xavier. He is from Australia and tells us a personal story in which he has been in an uncomfortable situation, because a girl touched him in an inappropriate way. The girl categorised this interaction as “normal”, whereas Xavier concludes if the same thing were to happen the other way around, and that he, as a male touches the girl in the same place, then this would have been called an “assault”.
