nounharasser (plural harassers)

plural harassers

  1. One who harasses.

    Ordinary people have already been face-swapped into videos for humorous or prank purposes and there is no reason to believe that abusers, harassers, stalkers, and blackmailers will not soon be face-swapping victims into compromising video as part of their arsenal.

    All the eyes focus on the harasser. However, the person affected, the harassee, is often left behind. The harassee is most often a second thought. Employers may say “don’t forget about the harassee”, or “we must check on the how the harassee is doing”, but that is insufficient.

    2017 May 24, Ronald A. Pink, “#WorkLawWednesday: Why Does the Harassee Always Pay the Price?”, in Pink Larkin
