Luthar Ph.D. Bryant College, Smithfield, Rhode Island This article examines three critical issues concerning the plight of men that have been neglected in the context of a sexual harassment discussion. These include the possibility of false sexual harassment allegations, the possibility of males being sexually harassed by female supervisors in the workplace, and the lack of strong legal protections for males who may be discharged because of sexual harassment allegations. The article argues that avoiding these issues may have serious consequences and lead to increased tensions between men and women in our society. Implications for organizational and public policy makers are discussed.
