Abstract

With the awakening of women’s consciousness, sexual issues are brought to the front stage, and the call to solve sexual harassment has been growing. The network’s social public voice plays a huge role in this process. This study focuses on the effect of public voice in social sexual harassment incidents and analyzes its multiple functions in detail by combining legal theory and actual events. In conclusion, public voice helps spread sex-related events rapidly across all social strata, increasing the public’s and relevant departments’ attention. However, radical public voice will also cause the focus of the problem to shift, promoting unnecessary group confrontation so that the real problem cannot be solved. This paper puts forward a targeted policy to solve the problem of sexual harassment and also points out the future optimization direction of the judicial system.
